I was looking on the shipping status of some orders today... if they list carton #'s 4,5 ,6 & 7 as shipped... and don't list any cartons 1,2 or 3 what does that mean? Will there be 3 more being packed or ????? One show had cartons 1 - 6 all shipped... it's a mystery...
 
You're right... it's a mystery!

Sometimes the boxes are labeled starting at numbers other than 1. Couldn't tell you why but it occasionally happens.
 
My shipment got "rescheduled" and half is supposedly coming, and half is sitting in Kentucky! Maybe that is what happened to yours...
 
I don't think there is a 1, 2 or 3 in that order. Sometimes they start the numbers for a show at 4 or whatever. Don't worry about it unless part of your order is missing. You can usually tell how many boxes by the $$ of the show. Cookware is shipped in a separate boxes otherwise it depends on how many large items are ordered.
 
Hi there! It sounds like you may have some questions about the shipping status of your orders. Let me help clarify for you. If your order shows that cartons 4, 5, 6, and 7 have been shipped, it typically means that those are the only cartons that were packed and shipped for your order. The remaining cartons (1, 2, and 3) may still be in the process of being packed and shipped, or they may be part of a separate shipment. As for the show with cartons 1-6 all being shipped, it could be that all of those cartons were packed and shipped together, or it could be that they were part of multiple shipments. If you have any further questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out to me. Happy cooking!
