> Sorry babe. I stay at Potong Pasir. If you make payment by today. I can mail it out today plus obtain a certificate of posting to prove i have mailed it out. Item is bnwt btw. :)
So i trusted her and transferred $30 to her acc for the item to be mailed via normal mail and i watied and waited for the COP to come. I emailed her sooooo many times and she only replied a week later, take a look at the date:

It's after a week and my item didn reach me nor I get my COP. So I replied her and waited patiently for another day. She only replied me with my COP on the 17th of march, with this picture. i manage to save the picture from this wierd html thingy:
(sorry that i blank out part of my add due to privacy)
The picture was really blur and it was not attached on the mail, it's like some internet html link like that and is not the full COP, so I asked her to take another photo of my COP again so that I know at least you really did sent out, she told me she don't have the COP with her anymore ! Here's the reply:

So if it's really mailed out on the 4th March, why I didn received anything till 17th March ?? At first I thought I was lost mail, but I suspected something was not right, coz at the same day I asked for other item from other seller, all have reached me 2-3 days after I paid, but this is like sooooooo long. And how would a seller threw away the COP without ensuring the buyer have received it or not. So I decided to check with sgflea mod and here's the reply:

The seller is quite problematic and had some cases with others before. We have banned her for quite a period of time as she doesn't seems to think that she's in the wrong She is also known as puffinpliers, butterandcream and paperrosettes. Livejournal.com. We hope that you can provide us the LJ nick that she liaise with you as well. She has the habits of repling emails very slowly as she claims that she has sch/commitment etc.
The Sgflea mods also give me some info of girls who have be in the same situation as me before and also info of this seller. So I went to check and I saw this.

And after that I went back to http://www.tigandtweak.blogspot.com and all it says was “THE BLOG YOU”VE LOOK DOES NOT EXIST”.....
All together I have contacted and found out that there are 4 girls who got the same case as me. Slow email replies, blurred COP and etc. And all they did was threatened to go to the police before they can either get their item if not a full refund. And so I did the same thing as they did, talking very nicely first to ask for refund, she said she will give me a partial refund. And until I really wanted to go to the police, she then say she will give me a full refund but by the end of a week.

I will give you a full refund first. But if you do receive the item,
i will want you to transfer the money back to me. If thats ok with you,
i will refund you by the end of this week.
The next day, she replied me with this:

It will be done by end of this week. In the meantime,
I am going down to my supplier s side to check for stocks for you.
If there is, i will mail another piece to you. It will be a BNWT piece
.
What I'm looking for was the exact LOU LOU INVADE piece, but after this email,
she keep insisting that she will mail this item out and won't give me my refund.
So i waited and waited and gave her soooo many chance, And i only received the item today (6th Apr 2010)
The seller own a personal blogshop now (changed website already) and also a newly set-up blogshop,
with collections of clothes. A girl that i have contacted have been thru the similar case as me.
All girls information have been protected from this post. I do not wish to put any other info of this seller even though I have every thing about her.
But if any girls wish to know about her site name, just leave a comment. All comment will be screened. =)
To end this post, I would like to thank Sgflea mods to help me so much.
Thank you for taking so much of your time. I would also like to thank those girls that have really helped me a lot *hugz*.
