So a little over 2 weeks ago I decided to try out a new vendor. They offered a sample of BTH for around 10 bucks. I was their very first order, figured I'd give em a shot and leave an honest review. By the next day they had a few more orders. The day after that they announced they'd be using priority instead of 1st class. My order had already been marked shipped at that point.
So as I'm waiting in see that the people who ordered later have been receiving their orders. Shortly after, they announce they'll be going in vacation mode to catch up on orders. I get it... new vendor needs to get in the swing of things. Most people ae still getting orders. They come back, some people had delays, but not many. I'm pretty patient now thathat I'm not really dependant, but after 13 days I decided to msg them just to make sure my order didn't get overlooked. Then they just dissappear for nearly a week.
Aside from several new orders that people were freaking about not being confirmed, most people were eventually getting theirs, after 3 to 6 days. I'm sure they missed mine, or decided to bail cause the dnms aren't for them. I sent it to resolution. Only one person who ordered the day after me and FEd had not updated their feedback to say they had received.
Well today they showed back up. Word has it they were locked out, who knows. Still no reply to my message, but they're probably flooded with multiple messages from people who were freaking about a couple day delay in confirmation. Maybe they shouldn't have finalized when it was unnecessary. The other feedback from 2 weeks ago was updated to say they had received.
Tl/dr... vendor showed back up, and their very first orders that shipped first class appear to be arriving. So maybe I do have some hope! I've never had to dispute any order on any market, now I kind of feel like a dick for sending it to resolution. Maybe I'll have a pleasant surprise tomorrow, maybe not. But this is likely a case of a new vendor who got overwhelmed and is trying to make things right, which was my initial assumption. I'll be sure to update so potential or current customers know what's up. Very little info out there on this vendor.
I got my sample yesterday and it was great stuff for the price with very thorough stealth.
