Mine still says in process and I ordered on the 4th. My order was small (10 pieces) so that kinda shoots down the theory that they shipped small orders first. When I placed my order I did get a conformation email.
Well, Fedex apparently tried to deliver an hour ago and no one answered the door. It was still estimated for Saturday delivery when I went to bed last night, so naturally I was not prepared with a note on the door. We were up - I really don't think they knocked particularly loudly and this apartment has no doorbell. Typical Fedex. :rolleyes:
Now I remember why I had Sizzix orders come to my previous place of employment - no excuses for Fedex. Which reminds me... if you've never had a package from Ellison/Sizzix before, you should know that signature is required. You can leave them a note about neighbors, knocking harder, waiting the exact time it takes to get to the door, but I've never been able to convince them to just leave the package. Perhaps the Fedex people elsewhere are less stringent in their duties, but not even a signed note will convince them here. (which is about the only thing I like about UPS)
I didn't have to sign for mine; FedEx just left it at the front door. Hope you get yours tomorrow.
I ordered mine on the 4th and received it on the 10th and FedEx left it on my porch. I wonder if it has to due with your location? I live in California and the Sizzix warehouse is in Anaheim CA

Me too, Diane. I've got the slip and the note ready to go on the front door just before I go to bed.

I think it has something to do with our local Fedex being a wee bit on the **** side. On the plus side, I've never had a package "disappear" on my front door stoop. Had they not been a day early, I would have been prepared for them.

They came this morning. My housemate and I sorted through the order. (We went in together.) I am excited about these dies & embossing folders - they are all ones I've wanted. I have to say, though, to get so many at one time is a bit overwhelming. It's like being an overstimulated kid at Christmas. We spent an hour staring at them - it was pretty funny, actually.
On the plus side, I don't really feel a strong need to buy any dies for a while.
I got my shipping notice yesterday and my goodies are due to arrive on Fri. I can't wait to ge them.
Reflecting back, I wish I would have ordered a few more of the dies that I had my eye on. Oh well, maybe they will have another super duper sale some day.
All of you enjoy your goodies!
On July 16 I placed an order with sizzix and was able to take advantage of free shipping + 40% off your highest price item over $40, so I got my first Big Shot. They have a $5 surcharge for shipping die cutters, though... so shipping wasn't free for that, but the 12 other items were shipped free. I couldn't believe they honored two different promotions.
