Can you imagine how bad she must feel? This was so much work, and the cookbook itself is a wonderful effort, she made one marketing mistake and didn't charge enough. People who get banned or suspended were obviously trying to scam members, this was never the intent, and she clearly feels bad.

I think if someone could make a list of those members who didn't receive their cookbooks, we could have some sort of donation drive to reimburse them. I'm 100% behind you Missy, and anyone who got a cookbook knows what a wonderful job you did.

I understand the hurt and angry feelings but I would like to focus on the unfullfilled orders first while we are waiting for Missy to come back. I don't know if we can have a thread or something going to let the people that ordered from Missy to know that their orders can be filled by someone else.

I just pm's Wylie's mom to see if it would violate any of the posting rules if we started a thread asking for people who haven't received their orders from Missy to post so that we can "take care of things".

She posted a little over two weeks ago, and at the time her sewing machine was in the shop, and her computer on the fritz. Perhaps, she has been busy sewing and getting out those orders. Maybe her post was mostly about Yorkietalk not recieving much profit from the cookbooks.

I sincerely hope this is the case -- we can speculate all we want to, but until Missy comes on and updates us we are only guessing.

I agree! We can't keep going back and forth with speculations and accusations. Since Missy has not come back on let's focus on the ones that were wronged.

This is all very upsetting! I also like Missy and always thought of her as a trustworthy person. If she had come on here and told about her problems, but ended the post with, "I will work on making things right," I wouldn't be upset. She had no words to rectify the situation. It was just as if anyone she owed to was just out of luck. I've heard from a reliable source that she has done things in the past few months that were not necessities, and if she had foregone one or more of those things, she could have easily paid people back or gotten her machine out of the repair shop.

I also sew for people and can think of one time when my world came crashing down around me. I had many orders to complete and couldn't do them at that time. I immediately sent refunds to everyone who had already paid and even paid extra to cover the paypal fee. A couple of YT'ers here offered to sew the things I couldn't...and they did...but I would have never expected that I keep the money and they complete my orders.

As far as her unfulfilled orders, she has advertised on other sites and her site is open to the public, so it very likely goes beyond YT and it's not likely we could reach those people. I don't think it's up to us to make this all right. This is something she did through mismanagement of money and what should have been a priority in filling orders. When I sewed a vest for one of her unfulfilled orders, I didn't do it for Missy. I did it for the person who had not received what they paid for, because I feel sorry for those people. It is just not right.

And...Missy being logged on to her my space account on 12-28 shows she does find access to the net, and I'd be willing to bet she has been on here as a guest which wouldn't show her being logged on.

altigger74 · 01-02-2009, 10:51 AM

I agree Connie, I don't want to help Missy out with the unfilled orders, I would like to help out the people that ordered from her and never recieved the goods.

Missy needs to make things right regardless.

According to another post in this thread, this is an issue that has been going on since July, not something that just started 2 weeks ago when this thread was posted.

So how long is "long enough" if some people have already been strung along for 6 months!?

yorkiegirl83 · 01-03-2009, 12:43 PM

This is just so sad

.

I can completely understand falling upon hard times and I sympathize with that-- but business funds are *business funds* until an item has been made, shipped, and received in my mind and dipping in to that for any reason is just never ok.

I feel bad for those that haven't received what they ordered and paid for and I think it's wonderful so many have offered to help these customers with replacements in this situation.

I'm just confused as to why she hasn't come back to see this thread after asking for people's compassion -- which many, many showed to her

spr377 · 01-03-2009, 01:12 PM

Thankfully, I received my cookbook, and have enjoyed it very much. Also thankfully, I did not order any custom clothes from her! I agree that only the people that have not received their orders should be helped.....not Missy. She has chosen not to be responsible for the unfinished orders. I, personally, would never take money from someone until the item was done and ready to be shipped. It would be helpful if someone started a thread with the items that haven't been received, then if people wanted to donate an item to those people, they can do so. Good luck to all!!

Sunnie · 01-03-2009, 05:12 PM

This makes me so sad. I always liked Missy and I was shocked to read what has been happening. I understand the hard times and feel for anyone in her position. I have offered to help sew for anyone who did not recieve an order from Missy. I hope those people will step up and let us know so we can help them to feel like they are made whole. Missy, I am hoping that somehow you will read this and please contact one of us to tell us WHo has not recieved orders.

DENISE517 · 01-03-2009, 07:34 PM

I did see on her website that one person left a feedback that they ordered in July and its Sept. and never received their order. Looked at if it was someone from another site.

I'd think there had to be more than just a couple for her not to be able to issue a refund.

Missy we've been friends for a long time and you not coming back and saying anything, but having been on myspace just isnt fair to the people here. There are so many that are trying to help get things to the people who have lost their money and you won't even respond? You just can't say you can't refund the money cause you have no means. Find means, get a part-time job somewhere, anywhere to make this right.

Everyone can make mistakes, but its how they handle that mistake that makes the difference!!!!!
