12/22/07 1:51 pm – I sent an e-mail requesting an order update since it had been 20 business days since my initial order and the new tracking number only had “Billing Information Received” on ups.com. No response.

1/9/08 11:09 am – I received an e-mail from Jennifer stating they would check to see if I had received a refund and if I have received a refund, there’s nothing they can do. If not, then they would issue a check.

I never received a refund. I got sick of waiting so I went to my bank and disputed the item and received a full refund from my bank. If anyone else has been scammed by this company, you can dispute the item with your bank or credit card company and usually you'll get a refund. I'm still upset over the treatment I received from this company, but at least I got my money back. I just learned my lesson to purchase only from online companies I know.
