I posted here the other day with a warning to NOT order the BakePop pans advertised on the header & sidebar.

Unfortunately, that post was moved to the Cupcake forum, where it will be seen by many fewer members Here's the link to the thread:

http://cakecentral.com/cake-decorating-ftopict-732860.html

Today, I open an e-mail from "BakePop" and it's a solicitation to BUY the pans

Now why, if I'm in my right mind, would I re-buy something THAT THEY CANCELLED THE ORDER OF AFTER A GOOD 6+ WEEK WAITING PERIOD???

I hate being treated like I'm stupid.

Please, Mod, don't move this thread. It's a post consisting of GENERAL information.

Thanks,

Why did they cancel the order?? Makes me reconsider ordering the pan...

I'm not sure if this is the same pans or not..but I was trying to get them (the one's on t.v.) as someone said that they bought some from Bed Bath and Beyond.. I went there, no luck (except for the electric one)..and I called Michaels, JoAnn's..you name it and no one had them.. Sorry this happened to you..the cake pan on t.v. looked like they were "bigger" and you could do "more"..

Sorry to hear this as I was thinking about buying them.. It's a "crazy" world out there.

Geez, what a mess. Thanks for the warning. And yes, please don't move to the cupcake forum. I only go there for cake pop stuff, so I can see why they moved it there, but I rarely go the cupcake forum. I saw this thread in "general".

Well that would annoy me to no end..Did they at least refund your money?

There are laws on how a mail-order company must handle backorders. Their card asking you if you wanted to cancel or keep waiting is required by law. Not sure, but there may be a point past which they cannot keep you waiting and must drop the order. I would hope that their follow-up mailing offering the item again means that they now have stock and are able to ship again.

Haven't ordered from them, haven't tried the product, but hate to see a company get blasted for following the law.

I called the Customer Service # on the post cards.

What a %^&*$#@ joke.

The taped message STILL cites a 6-8 week delivery time, so NO, I doubt that they have stock available for sale or shipping.

The message starts with, "Due to heavy calling demands....." DUH, wonder WHY?????

The message concludes with, "If you still need to speak with an agent, stay on the line." The line rings twice AND HANGS UP FROM THEIR END

Sorry, no good excuses here.

Oh I'm pissed...I ordered those pans two weeks ago!!!!

My question for C.C...Why are they allowing this company to place an ad here???...especially with what's happening??

I finally received the pans. They are heavy and I can't wait to use them. I've been busy and now sick. I hope to use them this coming weekend.

Well, it took a long time. A few months at least. I don't think they were prepared for the amount of response and were overwhelmed. I finally have the time tomorrow to try them out. I will let you know how they turn out.

I've heard that those types of products. As seen on TV, etc will not start production of the item until they have a certain number of orders in hand. If they don't hit their numbers by a certain date, they cancel the orders.

Interesting.

I saw another thread here last night--don't have th link, but it's in the Cupcake forum--and someone else got their pans.
They're very unhappy because the cakes are light enough that they're not holding onto the chocolate covered sticks

Let us know how it goes.

Thanks,
Rae

I didn't see this site before I ordered my pans so I was a little upset. I ordered them last week and I thought "oh boy I'm not going to see them until march!" Well I got an email from them today saying that they already shipped the pans and will be here in 7-10 days! We will see. I will keep you all updated.

So I ordered my pans and it asked if I wanteed to recieve a second pan for the price of shipping. I said yes and agreed to pay the 7.99 extra. I open the box and received 4 pans. I was suprised but happy about it. But now I have figure out what I'm going to do with 4 pans...

Yes I recieved 8 parts all together. So there are 4 complete sets of pans!

Is this the same Bake Pops pan as seen here on Amazon:
