Happy0810 Posted September 20, 2012 #1 Share Posted September 20, 2012 Remember back in April/May when they put some of the old Bon Voyage items on sale? Well I purchased the pink gear set (shirt, visor, and sling bag) at a deal of a price at $9.95. My cruise is next week, and I'm wondering what to expect. Do any of you have experience with this? I'm doubtful that I'll get the actual items but wondered what replacements are being given now. Are people given replacements on the purchase price or the items purchased (value of $9.95 or replacement of shirt, visor, and bag). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twoboysforme Posted September 20, 2012 #2 Share Posted September 20, 2012 I purchased this as well...but my cruise was in May. The items were really nice and the bag alone was well worth the 9.95. Sorry I cant help with what you will receive if they are beung replaced/refunded. I hope you get the set though :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are people given replacements on the purchase price or the items purchased (value of $9.95 or replacement of shirt, visor, and bag). I purchased this for my cruise in May and it was in my room when I arrived BUT it wasn't in the size I ordered (I think I ordered an XL and received a L). They did offer me another shirt in XL but it was a gray mens shirt so obviously I didn't want it. They took it back and I had a refund on my credit card about a week after I got home. I did take down the persons name I spoke to though on the ship, just in case. At this time, I would think the inventory is gone. I wonder if you can call and see if its available and get the credit now so you don't have to deal with it on the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomarvin Posted September 20, 2012 #4 Share Posted September 20, 2012 my sister had ordered the cooler with glass mug and was ASSURED that the same one would be delivered. They SAID that put them aside. WRONG. They delivered the newer designed cooler with the cheap plastic cups. She returned it. They kind of gave her a hard time but she ended up with a refund. If they deliver something different from what you ordered and you are not happy, just return it. It is very disappointing though when you think something will be waiting for you and its not.

4133raw Posted September 20, 2012 #5 Share Posted September 20, 2012 I hope you come back on here when you get back and let us know what happens. I also ordered one and I don't sail until April! Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beshears Posted September 20, 2012 #6 Share Posted September 20, 2012 I really don't know what you are talking about, but when they had their "$10 sales, I took advantage of them. I want to say when I bought their watches, it was a GOOD steal. My watches are STILL working.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brooklynfc Posted September 20, 2012 #7 Share Posted September 20, 2012 You know I had a thought the other day, weird......:rolleyes: I bought a cooler/beer/glass mug package for my friend for our cruise in Nov. but I bought it back before the new stuff was out, back in the spring. I wonder what she will get? The old set or the new set? Its the same price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did the same thing to my sister and I. We both purchased the cooler packages so I could complete my collection of the mugs. We returned it as well because we really didn't need the sodas and coolers. We just wanted the mugs. I only have 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carnival has revamped the website and added newthings. Most things on the BV website can't be bought on the ship. What you are refering to is a sale onboard the ship. Anything you order from BV website is in your cabin when you embark or shortly thereafter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsbellisle Posted September 20, 2012 #10 Share Posted September 20, 2012 I ordered the pink set way back when it was on sale too, just sailed on the Pride in August and there was a note in my cabin saying they no longer had the items and I had a credit on my S and S card.

ata1976 Posted September 20, 2012 #11 Share Posted September 20, 2012 Anyone order the kids set? I ordered one and hope it is in our cabin on Saturday. I would rather them sub something for my son instead of a $10 refund on my card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imluvncruzn Posted September 21, 2012 #12 Share Posted September 21, 2012 I too ordered the pink gear set (3 of them) and the mens backpack/hat/tshirt. When we sailed in May all of the sets were in my cabin but all were the wrong size. I had the choice to keep them or return them. I returned them and they credited the cc I used to purchase them not my S&S card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ready2cruzagain Posted September 21, 2012 #13 Share Posted September 21, 2012 I had forgotten about this. Let us know how it goes. I ordered the jacket and don't sail until Nov. I am sure I won't get it.:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My husband ordered this set for me as well(I got the same set last year). We sailed on Sept 9th and it was in the room waiting for me. The shirt was the size that he ordered, but was cut a bit different than last year and therefore, the size was too small, but I kept the bag and gave the shirt to my daughter.

It would have been nice if they had not accepted my payment in the first place.

Wow, how odd that that someone who sailed in August didn't get it but someone who sailed in September did. Maybe they base it on the date it was ordered. Those who ordered first get them. I think I was late in the sale so I'm still doubtful that I'll get the set. We'll see. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meyer2 Posted September 21, 2012 #18 Share Posted September 21, 2012 When we went in August, the set we ordered oldest DS, shirt/cap/sling bag for $14.95 was there. The Ocean Pals that we ordered for the younger 2 were not. Our way into the MDR that evening, our Hostess stopped us when we were coming in (After seeing our name on our cards) & explained they no longer had them available & were sorry. Offered that we could get a Funship Freddie instead, but I explained we already had 2, so they just refunded our card. Anyone order the kids set? I ordered one and hope it is in our cabin on Saturday. I would rather them sub something for my son instead of a $10 refund on my card. Not sure what kids set, if you mean the shirt sets or if you mean the Ocean Pals. If it for those, the animals, see the top of my post. We were on the Magic, so not sure if it's the same across all the ships though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tasha4199 Posted September 21, 2012 #19 Share Posted September 21, 2012 I ordered two sets for my July Dream cruise. My cousin's (size XS) was delivered and she loved it. Mine (size L) wasn't, but I got the credit back. I really wanted it for the bag, but it wasn't a big deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy0810 Posted October 7, 2012 Author #20 Share Posted October 7, 2012 As promised, I came back to post my results. We came back from the cruise yesterday (sailed out on Sept. 29th), and I did get the pink shirt, bag, and visor in the size I ordered (medium). :D I was pleasantly surprised. Hopefully others will update us on their results as well...especially with the men's jacket and children's toys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ready2cruzagain Posted January 8, 2013 #24 Share Posted January 8, 2013 We were on the Nov. 24th sailing of the Breeze and I had ordered the Carnival windbreaker. There was a note in the room when we got there that the item was no longer available and a credit would be placed on the credit card we used to purchase it. Not liking how they handle things like that. To me if you buy it, it should be there when you get on the ship. All they did was take my money for a year then refund it a year later.:eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klmorg Posted January 9, 2013 #25 Share Posted January 9, 2013 I ordered the pink shirt, visor & bag way back when as well. On our cruise last month, only the visor & bag arrived, no shirt. A nice lady called to let me know there were no more shirts, and that they had credited my CC for what I paid in full. Which they did. Free visor & bag, I guess.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
