I have bought a lot of stuff on the net these years, most (all) of the time I'm very happy with the transaction. But this time, its really getting on my nerves!! I was looking to buy some coco-fibre mats; looked everywhere, and finally found a place that sell this product and can ship overseas. I also checked the BOI in Fauna to make sure I am buying from a reputable place.
I placed my order on the 19th Nov; I paid the total (including the expensive shipping) via paypal on the 20th. Then I waited and waited and nothing came (I didn't even get a tracking number). After about 2 weeks, I emailed the place 2 times with no reply. Then early this week, I finally received an automatic email that says my package is shipped on the 8th Dec. However, up until today, the tracking info from USPS still shows the following:
"The U.S. Postal Service was electronically notified by the shipper on December 8, 2008 to expect your package for mailing. This does not indicate receipt by the USPS or the actual mailing date. Delivery status information will be provided if / when available. Information, if available, is updated every evening. Please check again later."
This is so frustrating. I paid 80 bucks on shipping alone, so I expect my package to come pretty fast. If I knew I had to wait so long for a package, I would've asked them to ship via sea mail! That'll save me a lot of money! :furious2:
Sorry for the ranting, I'm not too worried that I'm being scammed; I do believe I'll eventually get what I bought, but just don't know how long. :main_angry:
