I’ve lost my excitement. I’ll get it when I get it. Then, I’m sure I’ll be excited again. 🤪 This is how I feel. I was so hyped when I placed the order. I have pics set aside for those papers and embellishments. But I've stopped eagerly checking for a shipping notice every day. It'll come when it does. I guess no one cares since they already have our money from the pre-order.

Weird thing is, I have looked at my ACOT account, and my order isn’t even showing up. Is it because it’s a preorder, and hasn’t been processed yet? I’ve order received confirmation.

Under My Order, it says: "Paid, awaiting product arrival" for me. I can't believe it's been nearly a month since I ordered.

It's irritating because I saw a photo someone posted of the order they received of Field Trip. I don't know where they ordered it from, but it's frustrating that they would get theirs before the store that highly advertises preorders doesn't even have it yet (As far as we know.) I won't be preordering again. I will just be patient and wait till SB.com has it in stock.

But I absolutely fell in love with the dino page and the rainbow colors.

I saw Paper Issues had it already, but by the time I got to it later in the day they didn't have everything. Or maybe they never had everything and that is why they had it shipped earlier than the others? She only had about 17 pieces of the paper (I believe there were 24), no 12x12 paper pad, no silver alphas, no puffy word stickers, no puffy image stickers, no lenticular stickers...those may have sold out super fast or they may not have arrived yet at AC headquarters so maybe major distributors like ACOT and SB.com want their orders to be more complete before being sent out. Just a thought...

I probably would have pre-ordered for the same reason, but sadly ACOT charges INSANE overseas shipping,,,Iput everything I wanted from Field Trip in my basket to check if they still had really high shipping...and they wanted $75 shipping! SB.com only wanted 18.00 to ship it! So I have to wait until SB.com has it available!

Yikes on that shipping - you definitely made the right call. Cocoa Vanilla charges $75 shipping to go the other way, otherwise I would order from them a lot!

Just a thought... They sold out quickly. She had everything I think to start. For sure all the papers and stickers. I saw the Facebook post about it and I started to put stuff in my cart as it was selling out. I decided not to order just pieces. So I closed the tab

Field Trip is now showing as new at ACOT. They don’t have everything in. Four items are still preorder so no package coming my way yet.

One store that I am aware of, but the markup is pretty high, so I only have gotten a few collections (boy). I hoped the exchange rate would work in my favor, but no. I don't think it's all a markup...I think part of the problem is that unless US carriers are buying A TON of it, the shipping spreads out to far less product. Even though there aren't many people here carrying her product, it makes sense for a small business to pass along the higher shipping prices on products she knows she can move rather than overbuying to make shipping even out across a larger order and not be able to sell through it all.
Next time Cocoa Vanilla does a grab bag sale, I might suck it up and buy some...I really like their stuff, but the only time I've caught the US supplier with it, I didn't have the budget to buy. Then, because it's so expensive, I hoard it instead of use it. That makes it easier to talk myself out of buying it because I might struggle a bit with digging into stuff I love (just in case I cut something wrong), but I don't have to think about how expensive it was, too. Cocoa Vanilla is too precious a commodity for me to actually cut into, lol.

I just checked my order on ACOT, and the only two things still listed as preorder are the Shimelle field trip thickers and the puffy stickers. I'd be excited, except I'm headed out of town for two weeks on Saturday

I received an order update email today. They said they were still waiting on 2 items, and the order would ship when they arrive. There is absolutely no telling when the phrase Thickers will arrive. So, I replied to their email asking if they could go ahead and ship what they have. They did, and are putting the two missing items on backorder. Yay!

I'm glad you are getting most of your stuff soon! I know I can't wait to play. 😁

Shimelle Field Trip is in stock at SB.com. They didn't get everything, in fact, I am annoyed at how little they actually got in this first drop. No 6x12 stickers (I live for stickers), neither pack of Thickers (so no words or alphas), no silver alphas, no puffy stickers and no lenticular stickers. I did scoop up all the papers I wanted (they had all the singles in and both pads, 12x12 and 6x8) as well as the die cuts (got those) and the enamel shapes (which I passed on).
I have to say I am disappointed a bit so far. First, the line has far fewer embellishments than normal, and then they don't even ship them with the paper which means I need to make another order, eventually. SIGH. I really want the puffy and 6x12 sticker sets! I have the cutest photos of my daughter at the school disco this year which was space themed...I need puffy stickers!

When i asked they said they would have to cancel the two items missing. I do want them though, so I guess I have to wait. I wonder how long it will be?
