Ordering Host Specials: Personal or Supply?

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

You cannot order the Host special at the Host Special price; it must be purchased at full price minus your personal discount. The order type for the Host special is classified as a personal order under noncommission orders. If the special product number does not appear automatically, manual entry is required, which necessitates contacting tech support for assistance. This information clarifies the ordering process for both guest and host specials.

I read on the forum that you can order the guest special a month in advance, just by using the discounted item number (ie, GMb85 etc.) But can we order the Host special too??? And what TYPE of order is it?? Personal, supply???


Thanks!
 
You can order the guest special one month in advance at the Guest Special price plus your discount. You CANNOT order the host special at the Host Special price. If you want that item, you will pay full price less your personal discount.

It goes in as a personal order (under noncommission orders) and you may have to enter it in manually if it doesn't come up right away when you enter in the special product number. If that is the case, I don't know how to enter them in manually, so you'll need to call tech support unless someone else here can tell you.

Hope that helps! :)

Thanks Colleen!!! I didn't think so but I wasn't 100% sure. I think it's kinda silly we can get the guest special but not the host?! Oh well. Thanks for your help!
