crazymommy17801 Posted April 7, 2006 Posted April 7, 2006 You may want to check your order status. I just checked and my order was cancelled. When i called avon about this i was told that there was a qlich in the system and no one who ordered them for that price will be receiving them.
Stowasser Posted April 7, 2006 Posted April 7, 2006 Thats strange, they sent me the shipping tracking number last night, I am going over to check it out
ColleenzKids Posted April 7, 2006 Posted April 7, 2006 I just checked. Mine shipped and I am due to arrive it on the 10th! Guess some got through?
vijmas Posted April 7, 2006 Posted April 7, 2006 AVON sucks!! I received my order today minus the earings
magickallight Posted April 7, 2006 Posted April 7, 2006 They sent me a shipping confirmation with a tracking number on Thursday - ALL that I ordered was 3 pairs of the earrings. After reading this - I checked the delivery confirmation number on USPS.com and here is what it says:The U.S. Postal Service was electronically notified by the shipper or shipping partner on April 06, 2006 to expect your package for mailing. This does not indicate receipt by the USPS or the actual mailing date. Delivery status information will be provided if / when available. Information, if available, is updated every evening. Please check again later. I am not sure if they shipped them or not!?! My credit card was charged and I have the email that they were shipped - but USPS.com does not show a status of the delivery - ONLY that they were NOTIFIED of the shipment... what gives?!?
Rockfordmom Posted April 7, 2006 Posted April 7, 2006 I clicked on the UPS link and mine is IN TRANSIT and is already in IL and scheduled to be delivered on Monday and all that I ordered was 2 pairs of earrings and the email says that I was charged $2.15.
meetooo Posted April 8, 2006 Posted April 8, 2006 Mine shows it is in transit also. And all I ordered were the earrings.

That's how USPS Delivery Confirmation works. The site is usually slow to update, even after the package is shipped. I wouldn't worry about that if I were you.
conj Posted April 8, 2006 Posted April 8, 2006 I called the 800 number. The official party line I got was "they are discontinued" and that they would not have known this until "the order got to the shipping area". Thats a crock.
sanam Posted April 8, 2006 Posted April 8, 2006 AVON sucks!! I received my order today minus the earingsme too. do these kind of deals come often like a dollar deal.. i have never seen it ?
magickallight Posted April 8, 2006 Posted April 8, 2006 Guess What?!? My 3 Pair of Earrings just arrived via Priority Mail. Total was $3.18 (3 pair of Earrings x $1.00 each and $.18 Tax) I used the Free shipping code - so had no shipping charge. Funny how they are saying NO ONE is getting these - I got them... wonder how Avon will explain this one to the customers that are getting their orders with NO earrings?!?

magickallight Posted April 8, 2006 Posted April 8, 2006 They are very nice - I would NOT have paid the $24.95 that they say is the Real Price - but for a Buck a Pair - I LOVE THEM!
crazymommy17801 Posted April 9, 2006 Author Posted April 9, 2006 Yes but for something that is discontiued then why are these earrings still in the current avon book??? I sent avon a email complainning about this. I'm just waiting for them to respond.
happyrat Posted April 9, 2006 Posted April 9, 2006 People are allowed to make mistakes you know. I once tried to buy a house that was listed for $795. Needless to say, I could not buy it at that price. Sure tried though (not to hard).
duckbrain Posted April 9, 2006 Posted April 9, 2006 I have only gotten an order receipt email saying what I ordered and that was the day of the order. Since then I haven't gotten anything else from Avon. AND I'm checking the Junk Mail folder too!
vicloo Posted April 9, 2006 Posted April 9, 2006 Received my 3 pair yesterday. I agree they are nice but not worth the $24 or even 40% off in my opinion. The shipping alone had to cost Avon more than I paid for my total order. I will continue to shop at Avon since they honored their ad.
SueInCali Posted April 9, 2006 Posted April 9, 2006 I got the first email, saying that I ordered it and it said I would get another one with the final info (total $, order #). I never got it, so I chalk it up to what might have been. No big loss.

Sure tried though (not to hard).Yeah, don't take it out on them too much if you don't get it... getting in on a price mistake is nice, but there's no reason to complain if you don't.
sanam Posted April 10, 2006 Posted April 10, 2006 this is the email i recieved from avon, so all the people who didnt get their order of earring be ready to get this email soon in yr inbox.... Thank you for your recent order # AVO014295304 Unfortunately, there was a mistake on our website. The price of the Sterling Silver Pink Opalesque Earrings was listed at $1.00; the actual price should have been $24.99. This error created an extremely high demand and depleted the inventory. We have had to take the Sterling Silver Pink Opalesque Earrings off sale and we are unable to ship this item. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you. We hope you will shop with us again soon, so, please use the coupon code SORRY for free shipping on your next order of any amount. Sincerely, AVON.com Customer Care
Braque Posted April 10, 2006 Posted April 10, 2006 Bastards - they should have given us a choice to cancel the rest of our order. A code for free shipping was the best they could do?
sanam Posted April 10, 2006 Posted April 10, 2006 Bastards - they should have given us a choice to cancel the rest of our order. A code for free shipping was the best they could do? you know what if they would have given the option of cancelling the order, we all would have done that ... i would have been the first one. and another thing, the lip color that i ordered i was supposed to get a free mirror with it, they didnt even send that. now i am too pissed off with them to write and ask them for the mirror...so whoever wants to use the code use it, bec i definately wont...
SueInCali Posted April 10, 2006 Posted April 10, 2006 I also got the email this morning. Oh well, congrats to the gals that got in and scored the earrings. Sound to me like no big loss. If you want to cancel the order, call CS or refuse delivery or cancel the charge to your CC#.
hannahs_momma Posted April 10, 2006 Posted April 10, 2006 I received my order this am in the mail! Just the earrings nothing else!
pinkroses4mommy Posted April 11, 2006 Posted April 11, 2006 Got my 7 pairs this weekend! They are rather cute.
Rockfordmom Posted April 11, 2006 Posted April 11, 2006 They're really cute earrings, got mine today.
crazymommy17801 Posted April 11, 2006 Author Posted April 11, 2006 Anyone want to sell a pair of them earrings?? I wanted them for DD's easter basket. Pm me if you will. TIA
