Furbrications
On March 21st, I won the following auction on Furbid: http://www.furbid.ws/cgi-bin/auction/item.pl?item=232355585
On the 22nd, I recived the following feedback regarding the auction: http://www.furbid.ws/cgi-bin/auction/feedback.pl?usernum=17473&username=reaux
So things look like they're going well, right? I emailed her my shoe size (I have since lost these emails, unfortunately), things seem to be progressing. I wait, I'm a pretty patient person. I contacted her a few times in the time between the below email and the auction being won, was told things were moving along. As previously stated, however, I don't have these emails anymore.
In May we had the following exchange:

OK cool, they're done! And ready to be shipped! Wait, maybe not...
After not hearing from her for a while and finding her on FA, we started conversing via notes:

Wait, so they're not done? And you had to order new fur? OK...


AC came and went, I made sure to log into FA to check my notes throughout the con. Nothing.
I sent her this note:

Still haven't gotten a response. Was it mailed? Is it lost somewhere in Pittsburgh? The note does show as having been read. I sent her the following note this evening:

So we'll see what happens.
Furbications/Brio seems like a nice enough girl. I understand that sometimes you can get overwhelmed by your workload, and I think that's what happened with her. At this point I'm just frustrated and fed up, and I would not recommend doing business with her, at least not until she's gotten her work queue and priorities under control. She does cute stuff but I don't think chasing her down is worth the frustration.

I can't even tell if there is any truth at all in her messages. If she was indeed sending another suit to the hotel, what could possibly be the reason for not sending yours along too?
I'm willing to bet she never made those feet.
