Has anyone else had this problem? I ordered 2 weeks ago and still have not gotten anything. I just emailed them on the status, no reply yet (it's sunday). Or does anyone know how long the normal shipping time is for the cake dummies? TIA! icon_biggrin.gif

Did you order something that is custom cut? I placed an order with styro wedges and was told it was going to take 7-10 business days for them to make it.

It took about two weeks for me to get my order - all "usual" shapes, nothing outrageous. They make everything to order - they apparently do not warehouse even the most popular sizes - your order is "fresh out of the oven" just for you, so it does take a bit longer. My order was very good quality at a very great price even after shipping was added - well worth the wait.

The foam cutting equipment was broken a couple of weeks ago my order was about 7 days late.
I am sure you will receive yours soon.

Hi Allison!
I hope you are doing great!
Did you get a call from a customer about 3D Elmo?

Gosh, all of my orders have all arrived within 3-4 days. My last order, I had a piece missing and of course it was the piece I needed for the wedding that weekend! I called them and the lady who answered (Stephanie?) was incredible! I only gave her my first name (no acct number or anything) and she ask me "Is this Debi XXXX?" I told her I was impressed .... how did she know? She said, "Oh I just remembered you from last week!" (How terrible that she remembers me and I'm not sure of her first name! icon_redface.gif )

Anyway .... I told her about the omission and told her I would be more than happy to pay the difference between ground and overnight delivery because I HAD to have that piece the next day. (As a previous warehouse manager, I understand that ground freight is part of the price but premium freight is 'above and beyond'.) Bottom line they overnighted me the one piece I needed in time for the wedding, at no add'l charge to me.

I have nothing but good things to say about that company.

I just ordered mine last Friday from them and I just got them today. I thought that was fast. They told me 3-5 business before shipping 1 day for shipping. I live in South Texas. Great Service!
