Llana started this ranting thing, so I'll keep it going.
About 2 months ago I went online and purchased 2 magazine on wire wrapping. The magazine is called Wire Artist Jeweller Magazine - I wanted to purchase these directly off the site of the magazine distributors but the owners had family crisis and put it on hold, so I found another site (in Canada as well) that distributes the magazines. I put in my order and it got email confirmation immediately saying the price and that my order was on it's way (electronic reply I assume). Well one week goes by and nothing, then anoter 3 days later I get an email saying that the second magazine is out of stock and if I wanted a different choice - I said yes and gave another 2 choices in case that one was out of stock as well. I got confirmation 2 weeks ago saying that my third or fourth choice was available and that they would send me those and include some samples with my order and that they would pop this in the mail on the Wednesday - so that would be June 1st. I'm still waiting, and they've taken their payment out of my credit card and still nothing. I'm kinda upset that they didn't have my first choice of magazine (which had a "hug ring" and how to make it out of wire) nor my second choice where they showed how to wrap a stone - but I don,t even remember what I ended up with in the end. But I would really like to have my magazine - specially since they've already charged me.
I've emailed back asking when they mailed off the order and if it had already gone or if it got lost in the mail. This place is near Toronto, I know it only takes about 3 days for ANY mail to get across Canada - not 2 weeks - I even had to pay $7.50 for shipping - I imagine that for that price I should be able to get it the next day or the day after that.
They're not a phone business, and only reply to orders through their site, so I'm not even sure if my emails are getting to them in a timely manner.
I've been waiting for a long time - I even ordered some square & half round wire that I was saving for making that hug ring that I'll never make now that the book is out of stock. I've been keeping it just for that - I haven't even tried to do anything with that wire yet - still waiting for those books.
I'm a very patient person, I've waited 2 weeks for an order of pet wood and had to call twice to see what was going on with them and they'd forgotten about me twice (but they never charged me till they sent it out, but I hate that they've charged my credit card and I'm still empty handed!
Llana's right, it does help a bit, but I'll be much better once I get those books in my hands.
