Every once in a while we have some incredible news regarding product launches. This is one of those times. The brand new Zuca Line has just rolled out (pun intended), and we have them all in stock and ready to ship out!
Here is a glimpse at some of the new inserts:
Ok, so from right to left we have the following brand new inserts:
1. Orbz (Green Spotz with Bright Blue Background)
2. Splash (Blue, Green, and White Tie-Dye) - Winner of the 2011 Design contest.
3. Sweetheartz (Red and White Hearts, Pink Background, Crystal Embelishments) - A little late for Valentine's Day 2012, but get one now for 2013!
Do you see something that I see? That isn't a Gray Frame on the Splash insert...that is a brand new White Frame! Yes, after all of these years a white frame is finally available, and we have a ton of them. Get one today!
The white frame will go with any insert you choose. You just can't go wrong with this sleek look.
THIS SALE ENDS AT MIDNIGHT ON MONDAY, FEBRUARY 6, 2012!!!!
Here is the fine print. Do NOT try to apply to previous orders (backorders included). All clearance item sales are FINAL. Do you hear that? All clearance item sales are FINAL. If you return anything you purchased using a discount code, it will incur a "restocking fee". Exchanges are perfectly ok, as long as it is within the normal exchange period of 30 days. Please do not attempt to exchange items purchased from the Clearance Rack...we know who you are!
We reserve the right to cancel orders that have typographical errors, have an incorrect price, or other possible misfortunes. As most of you know, we are extraordinarily easy to work with, but mistakes happen on occasion. We do try to make it up to our customers when this happens, but we request there be a mutual respect when this happens.
You guys are great! Let's have the best year ever on the ice in 2012!
1. Those of you who have been with us for some time know that we hold a "post holiday" inventory/overstock sale. That sale will begin at Midnight tonight. Only current customers, members of our email list, and foreign heads of state will have access to the special deals. If you are not on the list...sign up here <<<<SIGN UP NOW>>>>
2. The extended deadline for exchanges/returns expired on January 23, 2012. Any exchanges/returns accepted after that date may incur a "restocking fee", or worse yet...we may send it back to you. However, our awesome and unbelievable return/exchange policy still remains. 30 days after receipt of your order you can send it back to us in new condition, with tags, unworn/unwashed, and we will refund or exchange your order free of charge!
3. Due to rising shipping fees, we will no longer be able to ship free to Alaska or Hawaii. Boo...it is just too difficult to ship to these areas. Sorry!
That just about does it for now. Let us know if you have any questions, comments, or concerns! Email us at: info@cherryloop.com
Thanks again, and have a happy, healthy, and prosperous New Year!
As most of you know, we pride ourselves on working tirelessly to rush orders out the door and we guarantee most orders placed prior to midnight, December 15th to arrive on or before Christmas Eve. If you order after this date, we will try desperately to beat Santa down the chimney. We have a huge inventory of items that we can get on your door step by the 24th even if you wait until Wednesday, December 21st.
Here are some updates of what we will no longer be able to guarantee:
The following styles we can't guarantee by Christmas, they are selling out too fast, and we are already waiting on a shipment to arrive early next week.
Click on each link above to get more specific details about the items that are definitely sold out, and will NOT arrive by Christmas.
We are expecting a large shipment of Spiral Pants to arrive early next week, but we can no longer guarantee arrival by Christmas. If you want it to arrive on time, please buy something that is not of stock.
Here are some other items that will not arrive in time:
Pink Blinkerz
Black Blinkerz
Purple Blinkerz
6-8 Footed Tights
Adult Medium Footed Tights
Blue Zuca Frames
SK8 Zuca Inserts
Here is the rest of the information regarding the "Guaranteed by Christmas Promise"
Guaranteed by Christmas Promise:
All orders placed on or by Midnight, Thursday, December 15th, 2011 qualify
for the Christmas Guarantee. All orders placed by that time also
qualify for our "Extended Exchange" policy. Read about that here: Extended Exchange Policy for 2011.
Here is how it works.
1. You place an order.
2. We will let you know within 72 hours if there is a problem with
the order. For example, if it is out of stock, discontinued, or the
size or color you ordered will not be available. If we can't get it to
you by Christmas we will let you know at that time. You can choose to
exchange for something else, or cancel the order for a full refund.
3. If there is not a problem, your order will arrive on or before
Saturday, December 24th, 2011. If it does not arrive we will be
incredibly sorry, and will beg for your forgiveness AND give you a Gift
Voucher for 20% of your next order at CherryLoop.com. This is highly
unlikely, as we will know almost immediately whether or not we can
fulfill your order.
4. Not included in the "guarantee" are the following: Brad Griffies
Dresses, Figure Skatewear Dresses, Skating Blades, Boots, Heys Luggage
(Heys Bags will probably arrive, but we can't guarantee that). All Brad
Griffies Dresses are "made to order" and take 3-4 weeks for delivery.
Unless you purchase from the "Clearance Rack" (then it will ship out immediately).
5. Stop reading and go buy something for Christmas >>Shop Now<<
It is finally here. If you are trying to find a good deal on figure skating apparel, accessories, and equipment...you came to the right place and the right time.
Here is our Black Friday - Cyber Monday Annual Sale:
This discount will only be good until Midnight CST on Monday, November
29th - there will be no exceptions. Does not apply to gift
certificates. Not valid with any other offers.
This promotion is only sent to current customers and members of our newsletter.
CODE: BFCM (1a-6a) simply use this code at checkout to take off the corresponding amount!
Some things to remember:
1. We encourage you to order early if you want items before
Christmas. We have a guarantee all the way up until December 15,
2011...BUT the closer it gets the less will be in stock and orders may
have to be changed.
2. Please don't try to apply discounts to previous orders, returns/exchanges, or orders placed after the deadline.
3. Read our blog for updates on Holiday Shopping: CherryLoop Blog - In The Loop 4. Stop reading the fine print and shop!
This goes without saying, but I feel like we should say it anyway. We are very thankful for every single one of our customers. I personally have never been involved with an industry or sport where the people are so kind, considerate, thoughtful, hard working, and just fun to be around.
So, give yourself a big pat on the back. You all are absolutely incredible. I would like to send a blanket "Thank You" for all of the kind words regarding our customer service, the products we offer, the fast delivery, etc, etc, etc. It would not be possible without all of you.
Now here is some house cleaning we need to do regarding Holiday Shopping. Don't worry, it is all good news!
Return Policy for any items purchased prior to November 15th, 2011:
All returns and exchanges need to be received on or before January 23rd, 2012. Yes, you heard right...buy now, put it under the tree, and wait until they actually open it and see if it fits before you have to return it. Our normal (super awesome) exchange policy of 30 days after receipt is waived for all purchases made prior to December 24th, 2011. Woo hoo!
That is big time...you will not find a more forgiving return/exchange policy in our industry.
However, all returns (not exchanges) may be subject to a "Restocking Fee" if you purchased the item on sale, with a discount code, or other offer that is not full retail price of the item. Exchanges are cool...don't worry about those :)
Product House Cleaning:
Zuca Blue Frames are out of stock, and we don't expect them to ship out until December 12th (ish)...should be in time for X-Mas, but order with caution.
Everything else is looking good!
Happy Thanksgiving...I'm going to crash into a Tryptophan Coma, and wake up ready for some Black Friday deals.
Wow, can you believe holiday shopping is approaching so soon? Well, we've been preparing for the holiday season since early May...yes, you heard right...more than six months before Santa wiggles down the chimney we are building inventory, creating new products, adding vendors, and streamlining our shipping/receiving processes.
Here is what this means for you:
We guarantee that orders placed on or before Thursday, December 15th, 2011 will arrive before Christmas Day.
Most of our inventory is in stock and ready to ship immediately. In some cases we need to transfer between warehouses and it may take 3-4 days before we can ship your order. In order to save on shipping costs (we pay all shipping, you pay none!), we will almost always ship the entire order one time.
We will notify you within 72 hours of placing your if an item is out of stock and unable to make it before Christmas. It is a busy time of year, so if something sells out we may not be able to get it to you in time. We will let you know, and you can tell us how to handle the order.
We have 95% of ChloeNoel in stock. We have 100% of Zuca in stock and ready to ship immediately. We have the largest and most affordable inventory of ChloeNoel and Zuca. You can shop with confidence.
Those of you who have been around know that we run some excellent specials during this time of year. Keep an eye out in your Facebook Account, Twitter Account, and Email Account for these exclusive deals. If you haven't signed up for the list I highly suggest you do so right now:

We wanted to take this opportunity to thank all of the Veteran's who have served our country past, present, and future.
Without the sacrifice of these brave men and women and their families we certainly would not enjoy the freedoms and liberties we have today.
We donated 5% of all sales on 11/11/11 to the following organization:
http://www.usvetsinc.org/
We recently heard an interview on NPR with the President of this organization, and they are doing great things to assist Veterans with housing, career development, and counseling. Let us know of any other organizations you feel are worth donating to. We take the care and support of our Veterans very seriously.
Here are some uplifting quotes to remind us of how important their sacrifice is to us.
Thank you!
It is easy to take liberty for granted, when you have never had it taken from you. ~Author unknown, sometimes attributed to M. Grundler
This nation will remain the land of the free only so long as it is the home of the brave. ~Elmer Davis
Freedom is never free. ~Author Unknown
As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them. ~John Fitzgerald Kennedy
Valor is stability, not of legs and arms, but of courage and the soul. ~Michel de Montaigne
How important it is for us to recognize and celebrate our heroes and she-roes! ~Maya Angelou
Courage is almost a contradiction in terms. It means a strong desire to live taking the form of readiness to die. ~G.K. Chesterton
In the beginning of a change, the patriot is a scarce man, and brave, and hated and scorned. When his cause succeeds, the timid join him, for then it costs nothing to be a patriot. ~Mark Twain, Notebook, 1935
But the freedom that they fought for, and the country grand they wrought for,Is their monument to-day, and for aye. ~Thomas Dunn English
Ryan Jahnke, from MySkatingMall.com, and 2003 World Team Member has been working on a video called, "What's So Great About Figure Skating".
This is a motivational, inspirational, and exciting video. Ryan worked hard over the last few months filming skaters (some celebrity skaters too!), getting people to submit their own videos, cutting the tape, and promoting this video.
Check out the video here, make a comment on YouTube, and support the figure skating community.
We love figure skating too Ryan! Keep an eye out for a CherryLoop Video coming soon.
We have some of our great figure skating friends to congratulate on an incredible season!
Agnes Zawadzki, a long time friend of CherryLoop.com recently placed 4th at the US Nationals in Greensboro, NC and just a few days ago grabbed the Bronze at the Junior World Nationals. You can read several great articles at the Ice Network about Agnes and her beautiful skating here:
Ashley Cain and Joshua Reagan, also long time friends of CherryLoop.com, who hail from our hometown (well Robin's) of Dallas, TX. We have been watching their career bloom for several years and we couldn't be happier with the results. They traveled the world on the Junior Grand Prix tour, and recently took the Gold Medal for Junior Pairs at Nationals and placed 5th at Junior Grand Prix in December.
You can read about all of their recent accomplishments here:
One of the things we love about this sport is watching the skaters grow up on the ice. We see sparks of genius in them when they are very young, but it takes an outrageous amount of drive and ambition to skate at the levels these skaters do. We could not be more proud and we look forward to watching their careers in the future!
