A full week delay, not the worst ever, but pretty bad. At least everything was still available apparently. </p> <p>Am I the only one cynical enough to think that it’s awfully convenient that once items are shipped, received, and then returned, we won’t get a chance to buy at sale price since the sale will be over? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/there-is-hope#post-1940155 Sun, 22 Jul 2018 14:29:16 +0000 Barbara Diane 1940155@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>On Tuesday I had a package show delivered Wednesday-a day that hadn’t happened yet. It arrived on Thursday as originally indicated. My latest order is still getting ready,</p> <p>Nordstrom did a lot to gear up for the sale for the expected increase in volume so as to not have problems. The increase in online utilization was way beyond their expectation. They were surprised by the number of people who signed up for a card the first day of regular early access. They attributed part of it to bloggers writing about NAS. I know I’d never heard about NAS until I found YLF. </p> <p>I hope you all receive all your orders soon. And I hope my latest ships soon also. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/there-is-hope#post-1940146 Sun, 22 Jul 2018 14:00:57 +0000 julesegr 1940146@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just got shipping notifications on two of my first orders (7/12 and 7/14), one including an item long-since cancelled. Knock me over with a feather!&nbsp;</p> <p>I've had cancellations on orders since then for pop backs, but I've had just as many pop back orders go through. It's like a game. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/there-is-hope#post-1940143 Sun, 22 Jul 2018 13:34:15 +0000 Kathie 1940143@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’m sure managing the inventory is a challenge. Most of my orders seem to be slated for delivery 10-12 days after I order. Even if I’m quick about returns, and return in-store, that’s still two weeks, before someone else can buy the item. Tricky for a sale that is 2.5-3.5 weeks long. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/there-is-hope#post-1940141 Sun, 22 Jul 2018 13:31:45 +0000 kkards 1940141@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i know in the past they have used a lot of vendor/brand owned inventory that ship out of the vendors warehouse and thus gives them a lot less control on shipping etc, but is better financially for nordies...i'm also guessing that as they added extended sizes on both ends of the scale, they may have miss judged the demand and so if you ordered one of those sizes you have more issues (please dont blame them, as they didn't carry these sizes before therefore they wouldn't have good history to use to judge the demand...) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/there-is-hope#post-1940140 Sun, 22 Jul 2018 13:22:10 +0000 Thistle 1940140@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am wondering if the change to more online orders, and less in store shopping, is causing them grief.</p> <p>It's a huge change in retail, and it can't be easy for them to make the change. Easier for Amazon as they are riding the online wave.</p> <p>At least their customer service has been friendly through all of it!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/there-is-hope#post-1939943 Sat, 21 Jul 2018 16:08:58 +0000 Janet 1939943@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I did online chat with them two days ago and they said it was being prepared for shipping — which is a little odd since I got a notice from them on 7/14 saying it shipped. But tracking gives me this. Seems contradictory. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/there-is-hope#post-1939942 Sat, 21 Jul 2018 16:07:42 +0000 featherwitch 1939942@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had an order cancelled today, on two items. One is still in stock in the color and size I ordered, and the other isn't. So frustrating.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/there-is-hope#post-1939929 Sat, 21 Jul 2018 15:43:52 +0000 Angie 1939929@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Janet, </b>have you called customer service?&nbsp;</p> <p>Nordies battles with NAS traffic almost every year. Unlike Amazon - they only need the infrastructure/support for four weeks....it's tricky.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/there-is-hope#post-1939925 Sat, 21 Jul 2018 15:24:40 +0000 Janet 1939925@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think they are too, Angie. </p> <p>Still, I’m a little concerned when it’s been nine days and still no tracking number. I ordered the sweater in the orange colorway too, just in case. Even though orange is not my most flattering color, I do like it enough that I would enjoy wearing it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/there-is-hope#post-1939919 Sat, 21 Jul 2018 15:15:29 +0000 Angie 1939919@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think Nordies is trying their best.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/there-is-hope#post-1939910 Sat, 21 Jul 2018 14:43:55 +0000 Laura 1939910@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Glad to hear people are getting good news. My orders from 7/12 that were in "getting ready" status for a week have also shipped. Now, I'm stalking two items that I liked from Angie's post yesterday, but which are sold out in my size. Her mention of items running out of stock faster than ever this year definitely seems to be holding true.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/there-is-hope#post-1939903 Sat, 21 Jul 2018 14:15:23 +0000 Jorja 1939903@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also have orders from 7/16 that haven’t shipped but i’ve received other orders from the 19th. So far, for my orders Nordstrom’s has used USPS, UPS, FedEx and drop shipped a pair of shoes from the manufacturer. They’re really trying! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/there-is-hope#post-1939861 Sat, 21 Jul 2018 12:29:24 +0000 always trying 1939861@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My order from last week has not been shipped yet.&nbsp; e mail today said it would be shipped soon..Your reply </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/there-is-hope#post-1939856 Sat, 21 Jul 2018 12:13:30 +0000 gryffin 1939856@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thistle - I was actually just about to write on your last thread and ask!!&nbsp; Congrads!&nbsp; I hope it was worth the wait.&nbsp; I was able to order everything (although I did super stalk on the RM Merilee blazer).&nbsp; Everything is marked ship, but no shipping info on the Caslon hooded moto or the RM blazer.&nbsp; But as least they should be boxed and in the works.&nbsp; It's the worst when after wanting, ordering, confirming, we still worry it wont make it to us.&nbsp; And that does contribute to the FOMA atmosphere of NAS, which is not a good thing for me.&nbsp; Trying to ramp it down from defcon 1!!&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/there-is-hope#post-1939839 Sat, 21 Jul 2018 11:42:10 +0000 marianna 1939839@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My order from 7/13 is still in “preparing to ship” status. I’ve never had a Nordstrom order take so long to ship. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/there-is-hope#post-1939828 Sat, 21 Jul 2018 10:29:43 +0000 Elizabeth P 1939828@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Janet, that sweater seems to be restocked again on line. Not in your size, but why don’t you stalk it and reorder it if your size shows up? I think having to return one is better than not getting it at all, if you are that excited about it. </p> <p>Glad you stuff showed up, thistle! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/there-is-hope#post-1939799 Sat, 21 Jul 2018 06:58:14 +0000 Berkeley Girl 1939799@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’m still waiting for most of my order too. And in the meantime... I’ve ordered a few more things! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/there-is-hope#post-1939795 Sat, 21 Jul 2018 05:39:12 +0000 Gigi 1939795@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My order from 7/13 finally shipped. It is supposed to be delivered on July 24. I'm glad you got your package! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/there-is-hope#post-1939789 Sat, 21 Jul 2018 04:30:27 +0000 Janet 1939789@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Meanwhile, the EF color block sweater I ordered in store — the only thing I ordered in store, way back on 7/12 — still doesn’t show a ship date on the tracking page, even though I got an email on 7/14 saying it shipped. </p> <p>I was really excited about that sweater, so I hope they didn’t mess this up... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/there-is-hope#post-1939663 Fri, 20 Jul 2018 23:20:20 +0000 Kathie 1939663@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the update! I’m hesitating to put in another order, but I’ve been out to the store near me twice, and just don’t feel up to going again.
