That Crafty saga!!
So Many of you may have seen (and for those that haven’t) many C&C suppliers announcing that they haven’t been paid, have removed their brand shops and won’t be doing shows or shipping goods until they are.
Well whilst I am no longer a supplier for C&C, they do sadly owe me a fair chunk of money 
, in fact enough money to potentially put me out of business, enough money to mean we haven’t been able to pay bills and enough money to seriously affect us as a family 
.
Sadly i am not in the boat of being able to threaten pulling a show to get paid (not that i blame those suppliers that are doing so!) so the likely hood of me getting paid is very slim
These are monies owed for items i have already shipped out to customers and so its not just a case of not getting the money, but we have already paid out huge chunks of money covering the materials and packaging & postal packaging for the goods that have been sent, let alone the hours and hours that went into fulfilling the orders.
This is no reflection on the everyday staff at C&C as they are all wonderful, but sadly it is a direct reflection on the poor, rude and unprofessional management at the highest level 
.
My advice is to take a minute to have a look at a suppliers direct facebook page before placing an order via C&C, to check they haven’t announced they won’t be shipping before ordering your goods.
