I submitted a show on 3/31 and it still just shows as Received when I check the shipping status. It isn't a big deal but does anyone else have a show submitted on the 31st that hasn't shipped yet? I try to avoid submitting on the last day or two of the month because I have heard this can happen. Is this normal?

Thanks,
Suzanne
 
HHMM..I submitted a Kilo Show on the 31st..and she is scheduled to get it today.
 
They aren't behind, it's only 4 days. We get spoiled with quick turn around. The top of the shipping page will tell you what they are currently working on. Also check to make sure it's not on hold for some reason.

Okay, thanks. It should be fine - I see the payment came out today and I haven't been notified it is on hold for any reason. I told the host 7 - 10 days and could be longer because it was the end of the month. Apparently I have just been spoiled by quick turn arounds before!

Thanks

I usually tell them about 10-12 business days. If it comes faster then it just makes PC look better! Towards the end of the month or any incentive, the shipping can slow down a little but it's usually still pretty good.

I submitted one on the evening of the 31st and I am scheduled to receive it today! If it doesn't ship today or tomorrow I would call. I had a replacement parts order "get lost" in the system. They could see it, it was marked received, but it never got picked until I called. System still says they are shipping thru the 31st, so I wouldn't worry yet! Just keep an eye on it.
