True.
I'd rather just hear facts.
Or a weekly status update and not all the in between stuff.
After a while its just starts to LOOK dodgy (regardless of the reality of whatever the situation is). It creates mis-trust with people.
I follow their weekly updates etc and have done so pretty much last 12 months straight. My issue went back way before any of that.
And my customer emailed query on refund for the items they could not get also precedes any of the recent shenanigans etc.
