I had a item missing from an order and done an adjustment on the 19th and it has yet to ship and that was before they closed.. I called last week and they said it was in the shipping stage and still nothing...I put in another adj tonight so maybe she will get one of them soon. A whole new group of people wanting to do shows and don't need for to get fed up... I called today and it was a 6 hour wait on a call back....

Hate to whine but I earned mine on December 21st (date second show for Dec was sent in), show products received today (1/3) but no signs of my SA Heart Dish being shipped. :cry:
Before anyone comments about if both of my shows were dated in December the answer is yes and my ITP shows 2 shows for December--just thought I would save someone from asking.
I think I might call HO to ask what is going on.
