If someone cancels, could you add me? I’m new but like fyrefly I would like the chance to prove myself. Also in shipping order I live next to DC so you could put me next to Maryland

still in, order is fine. didn’t get my notification boooooo

Yep, notifications have been terrible. I just got an avalanche of them a couple hours ago. So everyone is confirmed! I’m surprised that everyone saw that message that fast without notifications. :D I think I will have a chance to get to the post office the Wednesday after this one.

I’m not sure what everyone is taking about with notifications, They pop up on my dashboard and I get e-mails all the time…??

The email notifications seems to come in batches, some more than 20 hours later vs it used to be pretty quick (like 15 mins?). Actually, it’s pretty annoying with anything involving shipping. Today I was trying to get an address from someone and it dragged on longer than it should of.

The tea box went out today! I didn’t want to add too many, as the box is a beast, but that didn’t happen! I could have added more. Also, I had the genius idea too late (on the way to the PO) that I could have separated the teas in those big ziplock bags by tea type (green, black, etc.). If someone else wants to do that, go ahead! It would make it a lot more manageable/ organized, I think.

Fyrefly is trying to contact EvaGrimm by the way. Tough to tell from the message I got through e-mail!

And everyone please make sure you’re following everyone close to you in the shipping list. It will be slower to contact people with Steepster not working a lot of the time.

I followed the next few on the list, but I guess you can’t message someone unless they follow you, too. :-/

(I just tried to contact her and found out I couldn’t when I found and posted to the thread)

Yeah, both people have to be following. I think the message system isn’t working right now anyway.

Sorry guys! Steepster has been finicky about letting me log on for the past week. Sometimes it’s just an issue with the Steepster subscription pop-up that doesn’t go away. Anyone else having these issues? Firefly, I sent you a PM! :)
