A few weeks ago you may have seen the buzz on the internet about the new Stampin’ Up! tool the Stamparatus. The first Stamparatus reservation window reached its maximum number of reservations in just 15 minutes. It turns everyone LOVES and MUST HAVE this new stamping tool! I must admit I was super excited! In fact, your response was so amazing that Stampin’ Up! decided to make some important adjustments to the reservation process.
As was previously announced, the second reservation window will remain open from 6–31 December; however, during this reservation period Stampin’ Up! will take as many orders as they receive (yay!) and not close the window until 31 December. So whether the total number of reservations is 100 or 100,000, the window will stay open! (Thank Goodness!)
Please note the following Stamparatus reservation changes:
- Beginning 19 March, Stamparatuses will ship in the order the reservations were received (first in, first out) and continue through the next few months and beyond as product arrives in our warehouse. Because shipment dates are based on manufacturing lead times, not all of the reservations made during the 6–31 December window will ship on 19 March (as was previously announced).
- In order to accommodate demand, there is only one reservation per customer (and one per demonstrator).
- Because Stampin’ Up! is not limiting the maximum number of reservations for the second window, they will NOT offer a third window as I mentioned in my previous Stamparatus posts. This is the last chance for you to reserve a Stamparatus BEFORE it becomes available in the 2018–2019 annual catalogue.
This is a BIG but welcome change. There won’t be a 15 min window of frustration this time round. To be honest I was so NOT looking forward to the 6th until now!!! I had my phone alarms set and was prepared to do battle to secure this tool. But now… Stress free reserving my friends, stress free…ahhhh….
The reservation window will open at 8:00 AM (AEDT) on 6 December (That’s 5:00am in Western Australia, 6:30am in Northern Territory, 7am in Queensland and 7:30am in South Australia).
I can’t wait for you to get your hands on your very own Stamparatus and look forward to seeing the projects you’ll make with this incredible stamping tool.
