    New website news looks good, like it all except the view description bit disappearing!! Grrr - 'mare.

    I don't think it is disappearing.

    Fast Order
    In this section you can order items just by entering product numbers and quantities. There is no search or view description facility.


    It just means there is a new way to order which means you can simply enter the product numbers if you know them. If not, use the existing approach :)

    Yes, if you read the description - it is about fast ordering. That with fast ordering there is no view description button, I assume the product description may come up automatically? If not, we might be in trouble! Have often had a customer transpose numbers or write incorrectly!

    But then I won't bother fast ordering :D

    As for the backordering 3 campaigns, don't think most of us bothered, I did once, and it was too much so I stopped, I think most of us use HTs and 2 books and that is enough!

    Well, have to finish off my C7 order by 10pm tonight and it's not looking good. I have one more book to come back from my son's GF and that's my lot.

    I am seriously thinking about giving Avon up as the 'earnings' are too unpredictable......

    On the plus side, I'm liking the lighter evenings and am wearing my flip flops nearly all the time.

    I have found I sell more when people can see what they are buying. For example the white fit flops, I bought and showed them to people. Sold the lot! They had all had books and not ordered them! Doing the same now with the black ones. I also do it occasionally with make up etc that is on offer and that seems to work too.
    Still looking for the plot...... Anyone seen it???

    I NEED some fitflops, I didn't order them as I have massive size 8s and remember someone on here saying they came up small...

    Not happy, was told via an email that we all had to recanvas in this area, I panicked cos I haven't ordered enough books as wasn't planning on recanvassing till next camp! I emailed my SL about whether she had or knew anyone who had spare books and I haven't heard anything back from her and I need to crack on really! so I have decided that I will just canvas my customers who didn't order last camp then recanvas next camp. Will that be ok?

    Order them and try them, nothing to lose as you can send them back. All my customers have found the white ones big even though they say 6/7. But not sure if any of them are an 8 :cool:

    They can't just expect you to re canvass on demand, you need to be told before ordering books. If you're really worried you could always drop old books with a note??

    The back ordering change shouldn't affect too many people - but currently I'm on c7 but could put an additional c6 order in for c5 products - with these changes you won't be able to, you'd only be able to order c6 or c7 as your current campaign. At least that's how all us sl have read it as being, well still be able to use the previous campaigns books just no further back than that.

    I'm a 7 and have bought the black and the white ones, I haven't worn the white ones outside of the house yet, but the black ones feel a little big on me, so you'll probably be fine in them.

    Can't decide what to do, my order is here today (hope it's all here, only 1 box which dosent seem alot compared to usual, but I don't have time to check it all off at the moment as I have to go out in a min). I always deliver today with books and pick up Sunday. Now this weekend I have so much to do as I have to fit in most of my hours for my temp census job this weekend as we are on holiday Monday, and I have my youngest birthday party on SUnday afternoon, and I am seriously shattered as I have just found out I am pregnant.

    I can't decide just to do as normal, and do books for those that didn't order this time after my hol. Or say I will pick up books a week Sunday, so they have books for a week and half. And do non ordering customers after holiday. Or just deliver orders today without books and put out all books when we get back next Friday.
