No Drama please, I just need help here.

I ordered some custom items ($65 worth) on near the end of May, I paid immediately.
The current turn around time was stated as 3 weeks

I hadn't heard anything from the WAHM since I paid so I emailed her asking how the order was coming along (June 23rd or so) she stated that she was having some personal issues but it should just be a few more days......

no biggie, I told her I was sorry to hear of her troubles and hope she gets back on track soon.....

Anyway, that was 2 weeks ago, and I haven't received a shipping notification or anything. It bothers me that the communication is so poor, I would feel much better if she would drop me a quick email to let me know how the order is coming along, kwim?

Anyway, another 2 weeks has past, and I haven't gotten an update. I just don't want to go past my filing stuff with paypal and lose my money.

I have never ordered from this wahm before, but she is well known, however, I believe that her and her husband used to work together on items, and now are going through a sudden divorce, so I really can understand if that is what is happening, but I am just a bit paranoid, I mean $65 is a lot of money.

I was thinking maybe I could email her and ask for a refund until she is ready to ship my items I have never been in this type of situation with a custom order so I really don't know how to proceed. And I don't want bad feelings, or to get shabby quality because I am pushing the issues, you know? But I want to protect myself since it has been double the set time and I think I only have 45 days to file with PP. And in all honesty, I probably can't even file now since it has been just over 6 weeks since I paid for this custom order....:cry:

What do you guys think I should do?
************************************************** *******
So, I emailed her, she is apparantly NOT well at all. Her husband has taken over the business for the time being, and she *thinks* that my items have been shipped. I told her that I am going to go ahead and file a claim, but that I will close it when the items turn up. She said that she would refund me right now, but she doesn't even have grocery money.

So I am off to file, not that it is going to do me much good, as it sounds like there is zero money.....but it's the only thing I can do.

Thanks for your help ladies

Ask for a refund. Life happens, but that doesn't give someone the right to take your money and not give you the product you paid for. That is just poor, poor, poor customer service. There is no excuse for that. I hope you get your money back. Do not go past the paypal deadline, file if you need to.

ETA do leave feedback for this person. Even if she refunds your money, other potentials customers should know so they don't waste their time waiting for items that may never come.
