They want to ship quickly before some of us come to our senses and cancel orders!

@crazycockermom My thoughts, exactly. There was so much cancelling going on yesterday that they decided to eliminate the option. I couldn't believe both of my orders have shipped. Of course maybe they will stay somewhere for days and still not come to me any sooner.

Hope you get them soon!

I've had experience after these 'events' that my items show 'shipped' but really just sit and wait for several days before they are at a shipping facility.

@crazycockermom is right, they don't want us changing our minds. I think they have some of us on 'the list' of people to show 'shipped' so we can't rethink it all!!!

I have never found that to be so that something waited somewhere after shipping. When an item has been shipped, I get it within three days. I posted yesterday that 6 fashion day items I ordered Saturday were delivered to me within 2 1/2 days. I was delighted. As for QVC having a cancellers list and making their order status say shipped, I found that to be a mis-statement. If your item showed shipped as your order status, it has been shipped. Just check the tracking info. As for the poster who said there were a lot of cancellations that day, how do you know that to be so?

Lol! This has crossed my mind many times! Got to admit I'm guilty of doing that occassionally. Things I really like sell out on me quick! Shows we all have great taste!

@KathyM23 I know there were lots of cancellations because people on this forum said they cancelled a lot, OK?

@ChiliPepper Good for us. I'm anxious to see the acorns and so glad that I was able to get them. They sure bounced in and out of 'sold out' so I guess a lot of people changed their minds and cancelled their orders.

@lucymo

Yes, I'm excited too! LOVE acorns! And pine cones!

They were sold out this morning but I see they are available now, probably just a few sets.

I'm temped to get another set. Maybe "as is". People freak out & return things when a couple of beads fall off LOL!

@lucymo My acorns shipped also, but my cute little owl pumpkins are on backorder, strange, because I ordered them while they were being presented, so I won't receive them because they were on clearance, I believe.

@mousiegirl so sorry. That's so disappointing.

Thnaks for the heads up. I check and my punkin carriage as shipped as well

SHOPR — Wed, 09 Aug 2017 20:12:35 GMT

Same here. The 3 candle rings and pumpkin carriage are marked shipped. I ordered a second set of the same candle rings last night and they are still processing.

I agree that this doesn't necessarily mean we'll get our stuff any sooner because it could still sit at the warehouse for a few days waiting for them to fill up a truck heading to our specific state or region. That info comes from a really helpful CS rep I spoke with a few years ago. It makes perfect sense, and I believe what she told me.

Re the quick "shipped" status to prevent multitudes of cancellations--Highly likely IMO. Just look at all of the Homeworx Slatkin items, which are all on advance order for mid-September, and how they continue to fluctuate in and out, but mostly in stock again.

When given days (or weeks or months) to think about their purchases, it's natural that some will change their minds and cancel for a variety of reasons.
