Runners take the orders and go thru the warehouse to fulfill them. Mickey is the only one in the company who is allowed a bike -- (no Jenna cannot have one as she already has car service) -- so the runners literally have to run. They get tired and sometimes stop. So they 'release' some items until they have energy to look for them again. Shifts only last so long, which is why orders sometimes say "released" for multiple days. <br /><br />Jane, I'm sorry to hear about your crappy experience with the waitlist. J Crew is testing a co-op shopping experience. Perhaps the thinking is if we have to work a little bit, we'll be motivated to get our orders completed.<br /><br />(silly tonite)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06119918515498248436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-20375347249318991192014-04-14T11:01:11.812-04:002014-04-14T11:01:11.812-04:00I've seen a number of different terms on the o...I've seen a number of different terms on the order list in my account:<i> submitted, released, backordered, waitlisted, cancelled... Released</i> has gone on for up to 2 weeks. At first I thought it meant "we checked your credit card and it worked." When <i> released</i> started lingering, I began to wonder if it really meant "well, ok, your card worked, but we haven't gotten around to working on your order," or maybe even "yeah, we know we can fill the order but we'd like to wait and see if anyone we like better is interested in this item." <br /><br />As for the difference between <i>backordered</i> - with or without date, I've seen both - and <i>waitlisted</i>, since brand new "arrivals" hit the site backordered, I think it's a difference without a distinction. Or maybe a distinction without a difference.<br />wellfedfredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07118802089389931227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-23429722146097525722014-04-14T10:54:04.314-04:002014-04-14T10:54:04.314-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.wellfedfredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07118802089389931227noreply@blogger.com
