i have ordered a few things from PC myself since becoming a consultant (personal orders, supply orders). Sara and I put of first show in on September 4th. I notice that the website STILL lists that they are shipping for August 31!

Is this because it was the last day of the old catalog???
 
I imagine they were bombed with orders on the 31st since that was the last month of the season. Plus there was a Holiday on Monday. I was one of those people that placed an order on the 31st, and it just shipped late last night.

I think you are right. HO called me yesterday about an order placed on the
4th but they aren't picking yet. I'm guessing lots of people want the discontinued products and placed their orders by the 31st.
 
I placed an order on 9-1-06 and it's still at picking stage! They might be behind due to the borrage of last day of the month submissions and the holiday could be a factor!
