Every single year it’s the same old story.
I say to everyone, “Hey the retiring list is here. Here it is. You better buy what you want NOW, because it’s going to be GONE.”
I get the agreeable nod. With the following “Oh- ok”
One week LATER.
Ring… ring….
Me: “Hello”
Person: “Hey, I wanted to get the retiring in color stamp pads and I can’t put it in on the order online. It says product is discontinued.”
Me: “Because they are sold out”
I hold the phone out from my ear, waiting for the inevitable squeal.
Person: “ARE YOU KIDDING ME!? What? It’s only been on the list a week”
Me: “Nope. I am not kidding you. THIS IS WHY I TOLD YOU to order the stuff you wanted RIGHT AWAY. IT sells out”
Person: “I thought you were just saying that to get me to buy stuff from you.”
Me: “Nope. I really really love you and was looking out for you. But you didn’t believe me.”
Person: “Son of a &$&#*. Now what.”
Me: “I dunno. When it’s gone it’s gone baby. So sorry. You can see if you can buy it on eBay for 5 times the price you would’ve paid last week”
Person is left with HEART ACHE.
PLEASE DON’T BE PERSON! Person ends up not getting what she wanted and feeling frustrated and annoyed because she didn’t order the minute the retiring list came out.
If you see something you want … GET IT…. Person will not do this. Person will ignore this and call me in a week and be mad she didn’t get the stamp set or the ink pads or the whatever. And I will have to tell person, sorry about your bad luck. I HATE THAT.
- These items ARE WHILE SUPPLIES LAST!!!!!
There are a lot of discounted products on the retiring list. Order right away and make sure you get what you want. You will regret it later if you don’t.
Since you will probably not be PERSON…. I think I should give you a free gift. If you place an order this week from the retiring list I will send you a FREE pack of rhinestones as a reward for NOT procrastinating and being sad later. YAY! It’s a win win!
If you have any questions about the retiring list feel free to contact me. You can email me by clicking on the CONTACT ME button over on the right hand side of my blog.
