Default Trouble with online shop.

I don't know if I'm allowed to name a shop online, but I'm having problems.

I get my tortoise on Tuesday next week, and the substrate I ordered from the store has not yet arrived.

I have sent two emails, from two different email accounts, and have had no response.

I sent another, unrelated email a few days earlier and did not receive a reply either.

I've searched the site, and cannot find a phone number. If I reorder from elsewhere now I don't know if it will arrive in time (I can't run up to the local DIY and buy sand and topsoil as I don't have a car and am disabled).

Please help, firstly by letting me know if I can name the site!

Hi Ya,

Not sure of the rules of mentioning suppliers in a negative way on here. I know it's a pain if you've already placed an order but the Shelled Warriors shop (links are on the home page) or www.kimbosreptileworld.co.uk might have what you need. I've also used www.livefood.co.uk they tend to deliver next day if you place the order early enough.

Not sure you're meant to plug suppliers on here either but ha ho.

Was this from me? Shelled Warriors Shop i remember an email of someone who was disabled saying it had not turned up only one email. I replied saying i would look into it and get more in the post. If so please om me your order number and i will look into this. Might be crossed wires

Ingrid, if it is from Sarah Id bet any money that it's either a genuine error or a prob with the royal mail. I have ordered a few times and always had a first class service, as have many others too. I hope you get it sorted soon.

I would just like to point out on this public forum that THIS IS NOTHING TO DO WITH SARAH OR THE SHELLED WARRIORS SHOP!

I'm very sorry if it sounded that way - it wasn't my intention. I've used her eBay service and found her very quick, reliable and courteous.
