THEY ARE NOT ON STOP SELL!!!!!!!!!!

And you do not have to replace the backordered ones. PC will send them directly to the host when they are available. You should not take them out of your stock.
 
My mistake. Late and everyone is asking me questions at the same time I am typing. So much for thinking I can do more than one thing at a time! LOL!!

I am probably remembering wrong, but I was under the impression that when an item is on BO we should not sell it until it is no longer on BO....Is this wrong?? I would LOVE to be WRONG!!
 
If it's on backorder, you can still sell it.
 
Yeah, thanks....The boxes for this party are coming to my house because Host will be on vacation when they come. I am only replacing them because it was a small order and I won't get confused when I recv the BO ones..
 
Backorder does not mean stop sell. Earlier this week they warned us that this product might end up being backordered but that they are expecting weekly shipments and are working towards increased production. So you continue to sell unless we get official word that it is on stop sell.

Last season when the DCB went on stop-sell they sent more than one email to let us know what was going on.

...Just wanted to share what TWO home office reps told me. They were unable to add the Mix N Chop to the Adjustment Exchange.
I submitted a show last night & the Mix N Chops went through...
It's very strange, but again, just wanted to share what I was told...
 
Anyone interested in placing a large order with me for these? I bet they go on stop sell soon.
 
Looks like I am going to have a lot of backorders like everyone else
