i was reading through this thread http://www.speedsolving.com/forum/showthread.php?19449-THE-cube-store-thread and i came across this store again http://cfoping.com/index.php called cfoping.com and i thought this store was great because the prices was amazing but then i ordered from there and i ordered a teraminx & gigaminx w/ 1-3 day delivery .
well after waiting a few WEEKS my package finally came but with only 1 of the puzzles - the teraminx. i was :mad: and started sending messages to the owner and just got no reply and have not had a message back apart from 1 saying that they made a mistake and it should get to me soon .

so just dont order from this site the prices look good but you might not get one of the cubes like me and cant get money back like me and it took a month for the first puzzle to come when i put down 1-3 days and i made this order on the 10-10-10 thats how i remember. so if you stay away from this site then good for you.

I have no opinion on the actual content of your post, and I'm not being mean at all.

I just found it funny that you edited the OP for a "spelling mistake" but have so many grammar errors. =)
 
Things can go wrong during shipping. I ordered something from popbuying, and one of the items came a month after I got the rest of the order. I ordered from lightake, and the order took 45 calender days because it got lost in shipping. I have no experience with this site, but I doubt it would always be 1-3 days delivery unless it was based close to you. Many sites often have 1-3 day processing times. Even if it does say it should be 1-3 days, after 3 days have passed, you should have contacted the owner of the site. Sometimes it can take a while for them to contact you back.

I am sure that there are many people that have ordered from this site and had a positive experience, so I really hope you realize that you're not going to change many opinions, if any at all.

Finally I thought I'd add that I don't feel sorry for you in any way.
 
Even the most legitimate websites make mistakes like described above. I also sell puzzles online (link in signature) and I try my best to limit mistakes. Simple mistakes include not double checking an order to make sure you got everything. i.e. sending only 1 item when 2 of the same item was in the order.

It seems like a Gigaminx is a pretty big item, so it's a pretty big fuss. It's hard to miss yet it's only one word.

If they were out of stock on the gigaminx, they should've at least emailed you. It's hard to tell, especially when you don't get a response, but email fails now and then. Send a followup email if you haven't yet.

On the other side of things, customers make mistakes too. Mostly forgetting to change an address in paypal causes problems..

But anyway, good luck.


edit: oh I forgot to mention the 1-3 days shipping from that website... Really? REALLY??? That's hardly a mistake but a lie... perhaps.

i got my puzzles from you in 3 business days, and dan in 2 business days. . so. .
 
which is why i just wanted to warn people about this website. i understand that it just might be a mistake and didn't have a problem with this site but i also cant find anything about this site so this was just like a warning just to say be careful
because the same thing might happen to someone else
 
Be nice! Leon is an amazingly nice kid, not trying to be a pain, he's just obviously quite annoyed he hasn't got his birthday present and wants to make sure others know about his ordering experiece, which I think is fair enough. Other people do it all the time...
I think you misread. izovire meant that Leon was victimized
 
I find this funny, because I just did a commercial for Speedcubeshop, and I also had a negative attitude towards the site as well, mainly the expensive prices.
The expensive pricing should have already droven you away from the site.
