Could be. Still, I've sent three query messages to him in the last month
(I ordered from him too), with no reply, which does get a bit frustrating.
I'm going to need to look through my files to see if he gave me a phone
number...I usually ask for one when sending $$ to someone new...
IMPORTANT: I sometimes get delayed in responding to e-mail messages. Feel
free to send me gentle reminder messages if you don't hear back from me
after a couple of days, or even to phone me at 305-378-6133 if you feel the
need.
