what is on stop sell ?
 
from what I understand, nothing. The Mix & Chop is on back order.
 
I have not gotten notice of anything on stop sell, just mix and chop on back order.

It started a talk on here the other day b/c a HO rep told a consultant during an adjustment the mix and chop was on back order, but to my knowledge no one has recieved notice from HO that it is.

thanks so much, I am closing an order right now and I had one order for the peeler but couldn't remember which one was on stop sell - the pc website is not very helpful or i couldn't find it easily. ya'll are so wonderful on here.
 
The Julienne Peeler is basically on stop sell...it was never realeased for sale even though it's in the catalog.
 
I'm accepting money for it and I have a list of purchasers for when it's available. (I hope soon!)
 
FYI . . . I received an email today that the 3 Mix N Chops that were on back order have now shipped.:)

That's great. My next show going in has at least 4 orders for them!
 
I have a show that I'll close in the next couple days with 12 ordered!! I think I've already sold at least 25 and they're all from catalog shows this month!!
 
I sold 31 this month... 11 today at one show. Two guests started using it and they all had to have it.
 
I just submitted a fundraiser - 12 Mix and Chops were ordered. Sure hope they come off of backorder soon!
 
The Mix & Chops are on backorder? :( I must have missed that! I sold several tonight!
 
They are going on and off of backorder. I ordered some on a show I submitted on Thurday and got an e-mail saying they would be delayed until April 9th.
 
I cannot put in the Southwestern Seasoning Mix. It doesn't even recognize the number so I'm assuming it isn't available?
 
Nevermind...the host put the wrong number on the OOF. My bad!
 
I was going to panic there! I love the seasoning and was scared it was gone!
 
I started reading this post and got worried. My favorite product this season is the Mix n Chop, so of course I talk it up big. Im glad they're sending them out now. Did HO send a notice out or was it per order?

I would not take payment for the julianne peeler - in fact we have been told by PC NOT to do that. It is not available and we have no idea when or IF it will become available. I take names of those that are interested and it will give me a reason to call them when/if it is released.

We had a chillzanne product in the catalog that was pulled before the season a couple years ago and it never was released.
