Okay, that just stinks

Last week I posted how starting Monday, February 23 Stampin’ Up! would turn off the ordering on accessories that would be backordered longer than normal. Below is a list of backordered items you can order and when they will be available, products that are unavailable to order and products that could be unavailable to order any time.

Here’s what stinks. Four Blendabilities Assortments are unavailable to order. The item number listed is from the 2014-2015 Stampin’ Up! Catalog. I was hopeful that meant some were slated for Sale-a-bration selections. My call to Stampin’ Up! put an end to that hope. As of now, Cherry Cobbler, Daffodil Delight, Old Olive and Pumpkin Pie Blendabilities are unavailable to order or choose as a free Sale-a-bration product. Rich Razzleberry could join the unavailable list soon.

If you have been wanting Rich Razzleberry Blendabilites for your free Sale-a-bration choice, you’ll want to place your order ASAP.

I do believe there will be less frustration from not being able to order an accessory than waiting weeks and weeks for either something to be delivered whether if it was free or not.  It just stinks that any of the Blendabilities were made unavailable to order. Hopefully the backorder situation will be resolved a whole lot earlier than later.

In order to help you plan your ordering, here’s the lastest update on the backorder situation:

Stamping Smiles,

The Perpetual Birthday Calendar Kit is one of the temporarily unavailable to order Stampin’ Up! products. Thankfully this is not a calendar specific to a year. These are fantastic to have every month and for years to come. When it becomes available to order again, it should be on your list.
