Annual Catalog Items - Not Orderable Status and Low Inventory List

As you may have heard reported in the news, unprecedented shipping and logistics issues have resulted in a global supply chain crisis. This is affecting businesses world-wide and Stampin’ Up!™ is no exception. Due to extreme difficulties caused by these issues, Stampin’ Up!™ will no longer take orders for products that are not in stock. In other words, Stampin’ Up!™ will no longer accept backorders.

This change will help to reduce frustrations from unpredictable product availability and allow you to order products that will be delivered right away, rather than products that may not be delivered for months. If you’d ever like to know if a product is available, please check here to go to my online store. The online store is a great resource to browse products, determine availability, and place orders for in-stock items with me.  Or, you can check the list below which I update often.

Items that are no longer in stock will be put on Not Orderable status and can not be ordered again until Stampin' Up!™ has had the chance to replenish inventory of that item.

The following items in the 2022-2023 Annual Catalog are currently in Not Orderable status.  The date that Stampin' Up!™ hopes to have them back in stock is listed beside the item.

• Nuts About Squirrels Photopolymer Stamp Set, page 50, item 156475, $17.00, should be available around May 23
  
• Brights Classic Stampin' Ink Refill Bundle, page 126, item 147174, $36.00, not sure when it will be available again

• Subtles Classic Stampin' Ink Refill Bundle, page 126, item 147173, $36.00, not sure when it will be available again

Remember, even if a Bundle or Suite Collection is Not Orderable, you can still order some of the items individually if you wish.

In addition, the following products are listed as Low Inventory.  Once the inventory for these items is depleted, these items will become Not Orderable until supplies are replenished.  So, if you want any of the items listed below, you might want to order them as soon as possible to make sure you get them.

Corrections to 2022-2023 Annual Catalog

Anytime a publication as large as the annual catalog is created, a few mistakes creep in.  Here are some corrections to make to your copy of the 2022-2023 Annual Catalog:

• Page 10 - The catalog states the Paper Pumpkin subscription savings incorrectly. The correct savings for a 6-month subscription is $5.00 vs. a month-to-month plan. The correct annual savings for a 12-month subscription is more than $20 vs month-to-month plan. 
• Page 149 - The catalog has mislabeled two of the Clear Blocks in the diagram.  The Block labeled I should be labeled H.  The Block labeled H should be labeled I.
• Page 155 - The catalog states that the price of the Cutting Blades Multipack (item 152391) is $12.50. This is incorrect. The correct price is $12.00.
• Page 179 - The catalog states that the quantity of the Design A Daydream 12" x 12" Designer Series Paper Host Only item is 12 sheets, 2 each of 6 double-sided designs. This is incorrect. The correct quantity is 48 sheets, 4 each of 12 double-sided designs.

Price Increases

Stampin' Up!™ tries to provide the best paper-crafting products without sacrificing the quality for which they are known while being mindful of cost.  They regularly review pricing, taking into account the cost of doing business, global exchange rates, increased supplier costs, and market comparisons. When it comes to making changes, they are conservative and put off price increases for as long as possible.  

Due to increased costs to produce these items, the following products in the January-June 2022 Mini Catalog which are carrying over to the new annual catalog will go up in price once the sales period for the Mini Catalog ends on June 30, 2022.  Through June 30, you can purchase them at the lower price.  These products are:

• Cloud Punch, page 19, item 157749, going up $1.00 from $18.00 (through June 30) to $19.00 (starting July 1)
• Ladybug Builder Punch, page 20, item 157698, going up $1.00 from $18.00 (through June 30) to $19.00 (starting July 1)

Corrections to January-June 2022 Mini Catalog
