my check - which I did.At the end of November, I had not received my 
order, nor could I get any info on it by checking the website (tracking 
#X2345). As it is extremely difficult - not to mention expensive - to 
get thru to a real person at the 818-Pumpkin, I tried the "Help Form" 
available at the website.I received no reply to my inquiry. I tried 
again two more times in the Month of December...I finally gave up, 
figuring that my check had gotten lost in the mail - even tho' it was sent 
priority mail with delivery confirmation (which told me that it had been 
delivered on the 2nd of November). Last week, I received a notice from my 
bank that my checking account was overdrawn. Upon investigating, I found out 
that the check written to Barfko Swill was cashed and cleared my bank on 
Feb. 4th. However, checking the website, I do not see that my order has been 
shipped...I have requested (and paid for) an image of my cancelled check; I 
expect it in a couple of days. The bank attendant told me the image had 
an account number (XXX) as the endorsement on the back.I've 
spent most of the day (and god knows how much money) trying to reach someone 
at 818-Pumpkin, to no avail. I have also submitted another Help Form 
(support #102322) regarding the situation, but considering the track 
record of Help Form that I've experienced, I don't hold out a lot of hope 
for an answer from those in charge of handling help requests.I know that 
you're not one to "steal" from the fans that support the ZFT, but I wonder 
about your employees... Can you help me? My faith in Barfko-Swill is at an 
all time low.I hope I have provided you enough information to check out the 
problem.Warmest Regards,Jack C. Oonk
Now I ask you: Does this kind of business look profitable to 
you?

SOFA,

So, you are going to get your $4.00 discount, but you had to spend an
extra $50 to get it? And wait, and wait? God, or somebody, help us...

Larry

PS-I totally forgot about the $4.00 discount from the OZ disc. I'm not
sure I want to try to redeem mine, after hearing your story. I commend
your patience!!
