Jinxsis; Slow shipping


WHO: Jinxsis

WHERE: http://www.furaffinity.net/user/jinxsis/

WHAT: Two animal crossing badges

WHEN: I paid in the beginning of April

PROOF: Notes; http://i.imgur.com/FH3uknV.png Payment; http://i.imgur.com/RmMzMFq.png

EXPLAIN: I got two Animal Crossing Badges. They were done within a month or so and I was told that they should be shipped soon (Submissions showing them have been deleted??).
Jinxsis is a wonderful artist and I'm so happy I was able to commission them. Their art is adorable and really well done, but they have a problem with shipping and communication. There were multiple journals saying that shipping was being done (now deleted), though I still had not gotten my badges. Right after another shipping journal I decided to ask about my badges since I have been waiting for them to come "any day now" for weeks. http://i.imgur.com/tasFEnZ.png I sadly deleted the response (I clear my shouts periodically) but I was told that they should come on time. Sadly they did not.
I am still waiting on my badges in the mail and thought I should warn others on artists_beware. I really love their art and would love to get more things from them, but I am unsure of getting anything to be shipped. Which is sad, because they have the cutest ideas and such. I hope that they get their act together and fix this problem so that I and others could get their product and feel safe commissioning them again.

She said she had mailed it a while back and then gave me this when I asked to double check since it had been a few days after (sadly I don't have the original shout.) http://i39.tinypic.com/1zeuver.png

I waited a while before contacting her and not too long after I did I got this http://i43.tinypic.com/2aih3l4.png

Today I received my two badges in the mail so I will mark this as resolved.
Very frustrated that it took so long and such but I'm glad that I finally got them.

I commissioned her for two badges myself but resquested a refund last night. Hoping to get it by the 30th :/.

Like you I think her ideas are so cute and the Art is as well! But with how many commission journals she posted after accepting mine (over 2 months ago) I became worried when I'd see my badges...

I hope your badges arrive soon... I've seen a few people on her page asking about things. It really is a shame. :(

I remember she did a free badge for me a year ago and I bought a tag from her that I never got. The badge I'm not upset about because it was free and an outdated character. The tag, albeit $4 I wish I would have gotten :/

yeah i commissioned two chibi badges and she uploaded one (not mine) a couple days after taking them and thought oh she's gonna upload the rest but nope, and i dislike how she keeps taking on more things and promises to show previous things

I bought a Rainbow Dash tag from her before Christmas and never got it. She claimed it got lost in the mail and she'd re-send it...I just think she never sent it in the first place. Still waiting but have pretty much given up. :P

I had issues with a commission when she was doing Halloween Tags. I ordered one with a steampunk theme. I really loved it but apparently it got lost in the mail. Then the submission was deleted from her gallery. No proof of the commission or anything.
I later then had her change it to the Animal Crossing badge. Took forever for it to come in the mail. :/ Felt like I had to ask every month on a simple badge.

I really love her art, but how things are handled makes me not want to commission. I really love the new things she's been putting out but I'm really hesitant on commissioning her now.

I also had the same issues with her. I even caught her in a lie about shipping my items.
Ordered 2 bubble jars, 1 to be shipped to Canada, and a pack of MLP charms.

I ordered them sometime I believe before christmas. She got them done literally that night and the next day and I was super excited. Sent shipping info and waited.

Beginning of january, 2nd week I hadn't heard any word on shipping but wasn't stressing too much with holidays.

I finally noted her a week before my husbands birthday and requested it be shipped out so it got here in time for his birthday Jan 22nd. She sent me a note asking for my addy again and said she was headed out the door THAT day to ship them. I was so excited... and then nothing came. Waited.. and finally on my birthday a week later they came. Shipping stamp was dated 4 days or so after she claimed she was shipping that day.

I was not happy I had caught her in a lie. Then the bubble jar that was supposed to be sent to Canada for a friend... took MONTHS and me firmly asking, for her to finally send his off. I think he got it sometime in April of May of this year.

I won't be ever buying goods from her again. So sorry OP you also had issues!
