I kinda figure I'm the last to know about this based solely on the fact that the online store was so busy this AM there was hardly room to move. BUT, in case anyone else didn't hear about this, A Muse is running 50% off EVERYTHING in their store to make room for new goodies. Use code 50gone
Thanks for sharing the coupon code - some stamps are already on sale and the coupon made them that much better! I just bought 9 very nice stamps for under $25, delivered! Most are wood mount which is not my preference but one stamp is actually a set of pumpkins with separate jack 'o lantern faces!
Yippee - a happy package will soon be on my doorstep!
I just bought $74 worth for $32. Woot!! Too bad their shipping is so high but I made an exception this time. I got some of the stamps and paper I've wanted for so long.
Looks like Amuse is going the way of Stampin Up. I think that's a good thing. I love their products.

Are you sure you checked the correct box for shipping choice? When I put in my order yesterday I had a choice between express for $28 or priority for $6.95; that was for $60 final-sale price worth of goodies. I didn't think that was out of line for postage at all compared to some other places. Of course, free shipping is my preferred! :cool:

Reason: flub
I have to say thank you(I think ;)) to who posted about the sale. I just got the spica pens and the pastel sketch copic markers I have wanted.You can't beat the 50% off. Also got 3 ciao markers(like sketch,but for the price & it's only 3), 1 pack of variety paper of 20 sheets, and 2 saltbox studio stamp sets. All of that with the shipping was just under $78.....not bad!!!

My shipping was $5.95 for just under $72 of products(after the 50% off of course). I didn't think that was bad either...but do agree with you about the free shipping.
I succumbed as well last night. I knew it was happening but didn't look until a friend texted me about the Copic set I had been eyeing elsewhere. *sigh*
I wish them huge luck in their new venture and can't wait to see what happens for all the new demos!

I must be too late to get stamps from A Muse because I can't find very many stamps. I wonder if I am looking in the right place. I love their stamps and just found out about the company. Can anybody lead me in the right direction. Thanks:(
eeeekkk well i just bought myself a new zip-up jacket and a boat load of copic markers,stamps and the list goes on....lol but really for 50%off how could one lose??lol
I caved last night. Spent $42 with shipping and got 10 stamps, 3 spica pens, and 5 copics. Kinda wish I had gotten more. Will check in a week and see if anything I want is left and might have to go again!

I can't believe I did this! I ordered on 3-11 and just ordered more today. I've always loved A Muse and was surprised when I realized the number I possessed from the LSS. They did a great job of marketing those darling little stamps.
I am one sick puppy...
Has anyone gotten notice that their order shipped? I understand they're busy, probably overwhelmed, but I placed my order the AM of first day of the sale, and I am 3 hours ahead of them. That's 4 business days ago, and it hasn't shipped yet. If they're pulling them in the order they were placed, mine should be pretty early. Not only that, but when I check my receipt online, it shows full price (showed the half off at check out, though). Just puzzled. Anyone have any insight?
I've been following mine too because I know a gal who has had a email saying her order has been canceled since they are out of the Copic set she ordered (only item on that order) but mine says no such thing and I ordered after her.
I'm gonna just wait and see what happens. If I get it at that great price yay if not then it wasn't meant to be

Thanks, Victoria. I'll do the same, just wait and see what happens. However, if they're pulling them in some order than first-ordered-first-filled, I probably won't get my full order. Some of the stamps are selling out.
I did call them b/c my status is "Pending Capture;" that, combined with no funds having been w/drawn made me wonder if it had transmitted properly. All they would tell me is that they are very busy. Understood; so I wait.
I placed my order the same day the sale started and got my shipping notification yesterday. My receipt showed the same thing, but I was charged what I should have been. I did also notice though that some paper I ordered was not available anymore. I was kind of disappointed since they aren't carrying it in multi color packs in the catalog and it was my last chance to get it.
I just checked on my order. I ordered on the 12th and it says pending. It does have all items at full priced,but when I printed out the reciept that day it was showing 50% off the total bill. I so hope that they fill my entire order...I have the copics set on it,all the spica pens and some stamp sets. Oh yeah and a few seperate copics too.
Decided to check my order after reading this. I ordered on Mar 11, the first day of the sale, and it's listed as pending. Hmmm...probably won't get what I ordered after all. :(
I think I will just try to not stress about this. I feeling particularly impatient right now as I just helped a very annoying person try to do a picture board...good thing my guilloutine cutter only opens so far, I'm just sayin'...:twisted:
I almost hate to post this since others are getting bad news, but in the interest of fairness (to A Muse), I received my shipping notice. I got all but 1 or 2 of my stamps (I only ordered stamps). Here's hoping the rest of you get your notice soon!
Interesting. My A Muse payment was listed in my pending payments in my bank info. Checked it just now and it's not in the pending payments or the completed payments that I could find. Checked my order status and it still says pending capture not cancelled. Will wait and see.

I'm wondering if they're having a hard time updating statuses or something. I just got my first order from 3-11 but their site still says pending and I never got a shipping notice. The other thing....One of my stamps that didn't ship is still showing up to purchase on their site. I ordered 21 this order and got all but 3. I'm a little more concerned with my second order on the 12th. I ordered lots that time....LOL!
I ordered the day I got the email, and everything arrived today. I just placed my second order. Based on what I just read, I hope it all arrives in a reasonable amount of time.
I was just reading how some people had a payment posted then the payment went away. I just checked and my payment went missing too! : (
I was soooo looking forward to getting my stamps! Does this mean NONE of them are coming? That is too disappointing! I guess I won't be ordering anything from this company again! I ordered this past Monday and was wondering why it hadn't shipped as of last night.

They do show a phone number for customer service on their website. Perhaps it is time for you to call them and clear up the confusion.
Like other's have said, they are no doubt swamped with orders, that being said, you are owed an explaination for a charge that was made and then removed. Just my 2 cents on the subject. As an aside, I ordered on Friday the 11th and there has been no capture, charge, or other indication that my order has even been looked at. I feel your pain! :(

Reason: incorrect date, etc!
Worrying,worrying. My first order has disappeared from my bank statement.:confused:
Mine, too. I'm not so much worried as confused. I haven't gotten a cancelation notice or anything.

Well, my payment was in pending payments, not an actual charge. If it had gone through and then disappeared without a refund, I would definitely be calling them, but I don't want to bother them since I'm not out any cash. I would like to know if my order is cancelled or not, just because I might make an order elsewhere or put some money aside to make an A Muse Studio order. Like Victoria, I have no hard feelings if I don't get my stuff, they haven't charged me, I was just too slow.

I was told they have had HUNDREDS of orders just in the first day of the sale. They are filling orders as they were placed. I have placed 3 orders.. and have ordered in the past too. This is what has happened before with my orders, they do a pending charge, then when the order is filled, they remove the pending charge and then charge your card with the actual amount. So it does get removed from your online bank info for a couple days, then returns as an actual payment. Hope that helps some.. I do understand they are selling out of a some stamps and they were trying to update the site ..
