Breyer Christmas Order!

Last Friday we received part of our Breyer Christmas order. Delivered were: Beautiful Breeds Appaloosa ornament, Snowstar Carousel ornament, Baby's First Christmas ornament and Chilly the Snowhorse plush. The rest of the order, including Wintersong, was back ordered. In speaking with our Breyer sales representative we were told that the rest of the Christmas merchandise was not scheduled to arrive at Breyers warehouse until November 15th. While we do not have a definitive reason as to the delay, we were told that some of this merchandise will be out in stores sooner. Evidently the retailers that ordered the merchandise in the pre-pack display units received their merchandise. It's only the retailers that ordered without the pre-pack display that won't receive theirs until later. Unfortunately, we are one of those retailers that did not order the display. We will be shipping out any orders that needed the items we have received to complete them and, holding the others until the rest of the merchandise arrives. We are very sorry for this inconvenience.

Twilight Terror!

We received 12 of our total number of Twilight Terrors last night. We'll be shipping those out, to the first 12 clients to pre-order them, today. Most of our other clients that pre-ordered have decided to wait for theirs until the rest of our shipment comes in. We're being told, December 2007 or January 2008. Of course, we'll be shipping those as soon as we get them. Once we determine how many clients did not decide to hold on to their pre-orders, we'll be putting theirs back on pre-order for your purchase.
