PopSugar Special Edition Resort Box

[kmishmash]

I'm in pittsburg and for whatever reason our boxes (or mine at least) goes from California to Tennessee (or something like that) then to KS. Also purchased my box on the 14th so what the F! I'm actually pretty peeved about this.

Ninas box *is* amazing!!  

That being said, Quarterly has serious shipping issues.  Most of their boxes are sent out late and it seems to be a continuing problem.  So, if you order from them just keep that in mind.  Then you wont be too sad when your box doesn't ship till two weeks after they said it would.  I'm still waiting for my Nina box to arrive...
Thanks for the heads up!  My only experience with Quarterly so far has been the Nina box.  It shipped on the date they said it would, but I'm sure Nina has high standards and would be very particular about making sure things go according to plan.

 I didn't get the email yet I keep checking along with my spam folder. Did  anyone else not get the email

I haven't either... Yet. I ordered on 2/14/14 @ 2:18

What the? I've been too busy to check this thread all day, I log on there are 69 posts and I fully expected to see pics of the box and box contents and not only are there no boxes, ya'll are not even getting them shipped until next week?  That's some bullsh--.

I'm annoyed. And I didn't even get one of these boxes.

They took my pet peeve of getting an e-mail about shipping at the early initiated stage, and totally made it worse! I know it's just material possessions, and it doesn't matter at all, but I spent $200!! I just think that means something...

Disappointed... Just chiming in that I ordered a few hours after this box went on sale, and I too got the email that shipping's delayed a week, never got a tracking number... I live in Indiana so it always takes forever for my Popsugar boxes to get here via smartpost...

I am super frustrated!! I am leaving for my honeymoon this Saturday!! I ordered it the day it came out... even wrote an email to CS offering to pay expedited shipping!! I really wanted to have this for my bora bora trip!! 

Congratulations on getting married and I am so sorry that you won't be getting your box on time. I just can't figure out why companies do this and email at the last minute with some unknown and unsaid excuse and expect us to buy it. Glossybox did this to us in February and flitted away the whole month with one excuse after another and this seems to be headed the same way. Why don't companies at least tell the truth and be honest with us.. We are grown ups and can take it! Probably take it a lot better than it's just going to be late for no reason. Don't they ever learn??? You would think??? I don't know who to trust anymore.

Obviously, possessions aren't priority #1, but this isn't just about acquiring a possession. The money spent on these boxes didn't grow on trees. We purchased a box with a ship by date of March 31. Some people decided to go ahead and purchase it based on that date. Is really crappy to take someone's money and then change the terms with no explanation on the very day the box was to be shipped. I'd be pretty angry if I purchased this for a trip just to be hit with an actually it is going to be another week email. It's a resort box, not a summer box. The date freaking matters!

Cancel sub. And I believe we all should get a refund for half the cost of the resort box and one free month of PS.

Does anyone know if we can have them hold this at the post office? That week is spring break for us and I won't be here.

I dont want to be the bearer of this news - but just clicked my FedEx tracking and it looks like they were picked up (previously, it just sat at Initiated status). Both of my boxes:

Date/Time Activity   Location  - 
  3/31/2014  -  Monday
6:55 pm Arrived at FedEx location   WATSONVILLE, CA 4:49 pm Picked up   WATSONVILLE, CA  - 
  3/28/2014  -  Friday
10:59 pm Shipment information sent to FedEx
Looks like the "by" is the key to this notification. I wish I could give my boxes to those that need them this week. :/  Not that mine will come that much faster...but still.

Mine hasn't done squat yet.

I don't want to make everyone mad...but I got my shipment confirmation on Saturday and it's been in the "initiated" phase but now it's in transit!

 

[kelsyannee]

I'm located in Pennsylvania and my box tracking was just updated as well and is in Watsonville, CA. No email and weight is still 1.7 lbs so we'll see what happens...

 

[feisty1]

I feel a little better because my husband said I can just have our mail held until we get back. That way it just won't be sitting on my porch. It should work for a smart post delivery also. Stinks that I won't have it for vacation but good that it won't be getting rained on.

 

[Baublesntreats]

Mine has updated too.  It's arrived at FedEx location in Watsonville, CA as of 7:13 PM today.

I'm pretty disappointed, as well. I am leaving for a Hawaii trip next week and was really looking forward to taking that awesome towel with me. Alas, I will have to do without. On the bright side, I live in Texas, have a pool and will have so much sun this summer that maybe I can make this box into a stay-cation. 

 

[MoiSurtout]

Mine's in Watsonville and I didn't get the email about delay. 

Of course, I am not going anywhere at all for the foreseeable future, and I actually wouldn't mind much if my box were late, as long as somebody got one to post spoilers. I think I waited til the last couple days to sign up. So it figures I might get mine early! I'm not complaining, just wish I could swap places with one of you who needs it sooner. 

 

[afwife8405]

Wow they really have some bulls*t customer service. They completely ignored me and only responded to the positive comment. I think April will be the month I say goodbye to PopSugar. It actually doesn't matter that I will be getting it a week late. What does matter is that they have my $100 and aren't interested in giving me an explanation for the delay.       Tiffany Thomas That works for me!! Some people have to wait for food or medical care, I think I can wait an extra week for my Resort Box without complaining.... 35 mins · Like

  Robin Call Morey Seriously?! There are some people that would not have spent the $100 if it was going to be a week late. It is a RESORT box, people purchased this box for trips they are taking. The ship date matters! You don't take someone's money and then change the terms on the very day they were supposed to hold up their end of the deal. 19 mins · Like

Maybe PS is playing an April Fool's joke on us?
