| I think i have been conned by a yt member So i purchased a carrier from a YT member, i am in UK she is in USA so i payed $95 with paypal. Anyway i have tried contacting her with emails and through myspace but i dont get a reply. She was really nice she helped me set up a myspace account and we chatted through IM. I really liked her and she was really genuine, maybe she will get in touch,i hope anyway. But what do i do if she doesnt and the carrier doesnt arrive? Maybe im overreacting???? |

| You maybe overreacting. Most of our members are great! I've purchased things on here before and have had no problems... Did she have a lot of posts or was she a new person? Someone with a lot of posts I'm sure will be fine.. |

| I hope that you have not been taken advantage of. How long ago was this? It really does take a long time to ship to the UK. Was the item insured or traced or anything that you could check on it? Good luck & please let us know when you get it. |

| I once shipped a package to UK that took 3 weeks, another that took 7 days... Wait a little longer, I think. |

Administrator | Sometimes shipping may take a while from the US to the UK. Did the seller provide you with a tracking number? Also, you can file a complaint with your credit card company (or your bank), as well as Paypal if you do not receive the item, as they do offer buyer protection for cases such as this if you do not receive the item. They will give you your money back in full. We hope it all works out for you either way. |

| I ship all over the world and I have ALOT of customers in UK and for some reason it seems to take weeks for my orders to get there. Even when I global express mail them. Its really frustrating for me as a seller becasue once I ship it there is nothing I can do to speed up the delivery process. I dont know if its customs or the UK's postal service that is so slow. Do you know if the UK is strict on customs? Ive always wondered if that was the problem. I dont have this problem with any other countries, just UK. Have you messaged the person here on YT?

| I hope you weren't scammed and get your carrier! It could be that it's taking time to get there! Others posted that it takes a long time for a package to get to the UK, but I remember shipping a package to you that took a week or less. Then again, it took a package I mailed to Florida a month, so who knows where these packages sit waiting to be delivered. Best wishes to you...I hope you get your carrier!!!

| Thankyou everyone, i know the parcel wont arrive for at least another week or 2, But i am trying to contact her to find out if she has even shipped it. I have sent her messages but i havent had a reply and i know she has been online, so she must have my emails? She has been a member for a while,although she doesnt post overly a lot. I just desperatley needed a carrier for Mitzi as she isnt allowed to walk much, because of her heart condition,therefore i have to carry her everywhere. I guess i should have got one from ebay or something,im so stupid And yes Connie your shipping was FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!! i got it in like 4 days admin~i dont have a tracking order unfortunatley |

| I guess it takes so long b/c of the terrorism threats. All packages have to be x-rayed... But still it's odd that you can't get in touch with her ... |
