You should not have made us wait, or made us go and contact you. It should not have gotten to this point, ever. Additionally, we do mind being LIED TO, repeatedly, about the status of our orders. That's bad business and I'm just glad I didn't spend a lot of money to find out that I don't want to deal with you ever again.<br /><br />Heather, sorry about this post, feel free to delete it if it's too mean- I don't wanna start an argument on your blog <3 (that's what mine is for!)Beccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04855317381199537202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4965077752256108839.post-16755268151083153512010-05-06T16:23:20.736-05:002010-05-06T16:23:20.736-05:00EXACTLY, Heather. Being an online selling-stuff-la...EXACTLY, Heather. Being an online selling-stuff-lady myself, I know all about what it takes to fill and mail orders to customers- and I have never once failed to do so. If I ever got sick enough to keep me from being able to do it, I'd shut down my shops, I wouldn't go on Twitter begging people for money. That's just silly.<br /><br />Another of my Twitter-friends was also ripped off by Julia- turns out we ordered on the same day! I found out today when I posted the link to my new blog post... she hasn't gotten her order yet either. I worry for anyone who hasn't filed a Paypal dispute, as I doubt very much that you'll ever see your orders. <br /><br />BTW, I couldn't handle it and let my curiosity get the better of me- I peeked inside the package I got. There's a lot more samples than I originally ordered, and a full size eye shadow I didn't order. The colors aren't anything to write home about, the packaging is messy, there's no ingredients list anywhere, and some of the colors don't even look like they're blended all that well- certain shades show this more than others. You can see the specks of various pigments and you just KNOW they're gonna streak on you if you apply them. Yikes. I don't think anyone wants these, not even for free. But if you do, contact me!!Beccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04855317381199537202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4965077752256108839.post-33221428718580837962010-05-06T16:20:11.383-05:002010-05-06T16:20:11.383-05:00In my own defense and this is all I will say on th...In my own defense and this is all I will say on the subject. I am sick. A combo of fibromyalgia and Osteoarthritis and possible Lupus. I have been very ill and I am just now at a point where I am back on my feet again and in apology for my amazingly horrible lateness am sending out apologies and free full size product to those who's orders are so god awful late. I am sorry, this will never happen again as I now have fail safes set in place to handle things should I get sick again. I'm also very sad to see how fast the blog world jumped on the hate me wagon. Dominique your package and Heathers actually got sent back to me when I called to ask why they were not delivered, Heathers so damaged that I have to repackage it and resend it (if she still wants it) Yours I will resend as well, if you still want it. As for those who are trashing me over late free product. Really? It's free. You aren't losing anything in the wait and I'm sorry just that bothers you so much.Metacosmeticshttp://www.metamorphosiscosmetics.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4965077752256108839.post-75250744994373877192010-05-06T15:41:30.307-05:002010-05-06T15:41:30.307-05:00She also said she'd send me the tracking numbe...She also said she'd send me the tracking number...

She contacted me and said that she changed her shipping and told me to pick out some free product.<br /><br />I asked her a few times about if my stuff had been shipped out yet, and she either didn't answer, or gave me that bullshit about her being sick. Wait, the first time I asked, she said she was really busy and apologized for the delay.<br /><br />Is she really sick? I don't know. I know that I sat many a day watching her tweet her FOTD's, her lipglosses, cakes, and bellydancing exploits, all while she was supposed to be "so busy that she couldn't ship my order". Oh yea, and I watched her beg for peopel to donate to her on paypal so that she could get her lights turned back on.<br /><br />I never opened a dispute on her, and I don't even think I still can. At first, I was not caring about it being $14, but now I am. That could've went to some other more reputable company that I still have yet to try (like Morgana Minerals or BFTE)!!!Dominique -aka- 美華ちゃんhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10270987158278386150noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4965077752256108839.post-5463401253821346572010-05-04T16:48:32.084-05:002010-05-04T16:48:32.084-05:00Uh-oh.

I'd never heard of this company before but now I know not to take the risk with them if I do come across them.<br /><br />I agree with the previous commenters who said that you should file a Paypal dispute.

I am escalating it to a claim now, and after reading this blog I don't feel bad about talking smack about her service (or lack thereof). I thought maybe it was just me.<br /><br />Not sure that Paypal can do anything, as I spent such a small amount, but it's still worth it to flag Julia Williams as a FRAUDULENT SELLER and get her Paypal account shut down. After I filed my claim she even sent me a false USPS tracking number that just this morning was traced to HER STATE, not mine (most likely it was something SHE ordered). WTF Julia.<br /><br />Oh and watch out for her- she's opened a shop on Etsy now too: http://www.etsy.com/shop/diaphoni (I also used to talk to her on Twitter, where she seemed like an alright person- she's now BLOCKED).Beccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04855317381199537202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4965077752256108839.post-67070903099923430362010-05-04T02:08:42.222-05:002010-05-04T02:08:42.222-05:00I agree with Blix, open a dispute and try to get y...I agree with Blix, open a dispute and try to get your money back.<br /><br />I hate when businesses are not prepared to do business.
