I am sitting here, looking at a pink tomato knife that belongs to one of my friends. She was a guest at a show in May, and the show was shipped to my house. The knife ended up being back ordered and came about a week after I had delivered her other items to her. It has probably been sitting here close to 30 days though. She is a good friend, we're both busy, and neither of us has made time for it.
I know last summer (before I was a consultant) MIL had a show and one of my items was back ordered (can strainer). Small item, not a huge priority, buy I never got it from her. She doesn't know what happened to it.
All of this got me thinking, why doesn't HO just direct ship late coming items? In my experience it is usually only 1 item for one person, and it would cost the same for them to ship it directly to the person as opposed to the host. Just a though. Anyone have any thoughts on this one?
