I'm SO MAD!

So Saturday I realized I needed to order more hcg as I only had a little over half a bottle left. So I ordered the hcg pellets and have been patiently waiting for them to get here. Today, I still haven't received an email saying they've shipped but of course they have already charged my card for the order so I decided to call them to check on it. Thank goodness I did that because they are on backorder and won't be in until Friday and then have to ship out then! Which will make it sometime late next week before I get them! I am so mad because I have wasted four days waiting for them to ship or get here and I could have ordered from somewhere else! I told them that they should send out emails notifying customers of backorders because I don't have time to wait until late next week to get my order-I will have run out of drops! Ugh!

Sorry about your drops, can you cancel from them and order from somewhere else to get them sooner?

That's EXACTLY what I did! But now I still don't know if I can order and get them here before I run out of drops.

That's what I told them! If I had known Monday or Tuesday that they were backordered I could have ordered somewhere else and have had them by Friday. This is extremely aggravating! So glad I called today though!

The lesson I've learned from my shipping mishaps is that it's a good idea to order multiples, even if it's your first round. It's an investment upfront, but the peace of mind is worth it. I wish I had ordered more than one bottle on my first round, it would have saved me a world of headache.

I know. The drops I'm currently using were actually a bottle left over from the last time I tried this diet. I remembered Saturday that I needed to go on and order more hcg so that I didn't run out. Which, if they had shipped like they were supposed to or if I had been notified that they were backordered, this wouldn't even be an issue. *sigh* I did go ahead and order more drops from the place I normally do because they ship really fast so I should have them by Saturday or Monday so hopefully I won't run out. Unfortunately, they don't sell pellets but I did order some from somewhere else. So hopefully I won't run out before one of these gets here.

Hollyree,

I once left my drops in a hotel room on vacation. I was so stress that I went to GNC and spent 100 on new drops. Also, I hear walgreens and riteaid are selling them now for not so much. For me it was worth the 100 bucks to not get off track. HTH.

This reminds me of when I first ordered the Hhcg. The Mediral was always backordered so that the lady who was selling them (she listed on her website if they were on backorder before you placed your order!) switched to a brand that didn't have those problems. Mediral is still having those issues/troubles I guess! But I do agree--order more than you think you need as you never know what could happen to those drops!!! I have several bottles (open and not opened) on hand at all times.

That's a good idea, the guy I order from ususally ships out the same day I buy from him. I haven't heard from him since I ordered Tuesday so I hope I comes before the weekend.

I had that happen, too... when I decided to do this, I ordered two brands at one time, in case something happened with one of them. Sure enough, I got one right away, and a week later I got notice that the other was on backorder! I was so glad that I had ordered both... I cancelled the backordered one, and ordered a second bottle from the speedy shipper.

Lol, I've TOTALLY thought about this and will do it if I have to. But I'm hoping I don't have to The drops I ordered have already shipped so hopefully they will be here by Saturday so I should be fine. The pellets I ordered will take probably take longer.

It must be spreading. I shipper I usually order from has back order( which I just found out this morning, even though ordered earlier this week), so I don't think I will be able to start like I wanted to as well.

I live in the boonies so the vitamin stores don't have the stuff available, plus I don't have the money now to fork out another $90 for HCG. I do have a Walgreens and a Rite Aid, if push comes to shove I'll check there and see.

Holly good luck, hopefully both of us can find something.

That sounds awesome. I'll keep that in mind if I run out before the extra drops and pellets get here. Thanks!
