Bummer. Looks like she's been selling and shipping ebay items quickly. I thought maybe she was without computer access or something, but apparently that's not the case. :( Hopefully we'll hear something soon...

I sent her a package from a swap several weeks ago, and never heard back as to whether she received it or not. Hopefully she is just busy getting settled and back to her routine since moving.

She's selling on ebay? :eyes:

I paid for stuff back in April that I haven't received. When she updated here last month, I offered to pay the shipping in advance in case not having shipping money was what was preventing her from sending my items. And I offered to send her a list of what I bought in case she had lost that info. But I still haven't gotten any notice of what my shipping due is (and obviously I haven't received anything).

Apparently she's had 93 items for sale within the last 30 days.

I just received an item from an ebay purchase from her that I paid for a couple of weeks ago. Email her. Give her a little more time. She has been doing this for years and has never ripped anyone off. She is having an extrmely tough time.

Send her an email. Tell her what you are wating on. Or PM her here.

I have e-mailed her through ebay as well as her hotmail account. I have pmmed her here. I have not heard back, and I was very concerned that something was wrong until I saw all of her eBay sales. I have not gotten any replies so I'm at a loss.

I'm not sure what is up, but I sure hope she's better soon. I'm sure the move was really difficult. I actually do understand hard times and would help if I could.

I think she is just having a tough time and all. She is behind in shipping for my ebay items where late but not by much! I do think she said she had computer proublems or something and lost some information. I would pm or e-mail her even though it might take awhile for she is busy. I did e-mail with ebay about a auction I won and she never replyed but I did get the items about a week later so not to worry!

She has no vehicle so shipping is a bit slower now. And if it was something from before her move it may still be hiding in a box. She's not out to screw anyone over, its just overwhelming for her right now. Selling her stash is her only source of income right now, so she wouldn't put that at risk.

I'm trying hard to be patient with Sherrie. I've had many transactions with her and she 'ran a tight ship' on her co-op, which I really appreciated.

The thing is, I got an auto-sent email notification from paypal that she printed the shipping label for my package on May 31. All she has to do is put the package in her mailbox and the mailman will take it - she has already paid the shipping (and presumably packaged it up and weighed it, since you need to enter a weight to print a shipping label from paypal). And if her lettercarrier is fussy about taking packages, she can request a free pick-up online or with the USPS 1-800 number.

I know things happen, maybe she forgot or misplaced it or something. I sure would appreciate some communication though. I've also emailed her and pm'ed her a few times, but no replies... :(

I am sorry.....I am going through some stuff, and packaging and shipping as quickly as I can. I am going through some ****, and trying to get my computer fixed. It has all my records on it. I am selling on ebay because I have to. I am selling fabric I wish I could sew. I have not gotten any support from my ex since I left. I have never screwed anyone and if anyone would like a refund for anyhting I will be more thn happy to send one. There is still money in paypal. I am sorry. I have been borderline depressed over this whole thing, I am very overwhelmed and on the verge of tears most days. My life is a roller coaster right now and I know that isn't anyone fault, so if you want a refund please bill me. I have funded paypal.

Keeping you in my thoughts/prayers.

Sherrie, if I am overstepping my bounds, please let me know... I just feel like I have to say something here.

Please stop for a minute, and think about what your life would be like if you had to leave your home and the only life you knew, walk away without any guarantee and security for your financial and emotional support, never knowing what the next day will hold, and have to guide your children through that too. Then run a business on the side.

I have to say that with my marriage the way it is, and me on the verge of leaving, I have so much empathy for what Sherrie is feeling right now. I can only imagine what its like for her, because Ive imagined it for myself so many times. If you havent been through it, then please try in your heart to find some patience.

I could be wrong, but I dont think anyone who has tried so hard to maintain her service over the years, would suddenly decide to rip people off or intentionally ignore and not ship your merchandise. I know it might be a lot of $$ tied of for some of you, or even have businesses waiting on supplies, but in the grand scheme of things, a little fabric compared to her situation really isnt that important.

Now Ill get off my soap box, and mind my own business. I just felt compelled to say something. Maybe Im projecting my own emotions, but guys, she is in a tough place right now. Just think about it.

I just wanted to update. Since Sherrie posted to this thread and mentioned that she is able to send refunds if requested, I did go ahead and request a refund. She responded right away and I had my refund in a matter of hours.

I appreciate that. And I've had many positive transactions with her in the past.

{{{Sherrie}}} I really hope things improve for you and your kids. You are a strong woman and I'm sure that strength is being tested now. Hang in there.

- Anne

I did email and pm her last week but hadn't heard anything. Since she hadn't been around I was really starting worry about her well-being. When I saw the ebay stuff then I started to worry if I was going to get a pkg. ;) I paid for a FRB so it would be easy for her to print postage and give it to the mail carrier, yk? I've bought from Sherrie for a couple of years and never had problems. I think most of us Mamas can have sympathy/understanding for another Mama going through a really rough time...communication is key with these transactions though. ;)

I just wanted to add... I don't want a refund. LOL

When you find the fabric, it is from before the move, so maybe in a box, I am waiting on a couple yards of the Pucci. :)
