No. In my case, they created a shipping label last Friday, November 29. But, as of this morning the status on the tracking number is "Shipping Label Created, USPS Awaiting Item."

At the suggestion of a fellow member, I messaged Aaron here last night. So far it's been "crickets".

the proprietors of Crazy Uncle Auctions never heard the expression:

You only have 1 chance to make a good first impression.

I hope this is just poor business practice, lack of preparation and dismal customer service and nothing worse.

it's hilarious I quote various sayings and idioms at work all the time...to mostly youngsters...and they usually scoff at them.

A patient of mine who is a teacher told me the other day that the kids today expect "do overs" for practically everything so they do a half assed job the first time figuring they will have a chance to "do it again!"

But it's so many boomers in this hobby who repeatedly have shown the willingness to turn a blind eye toward the questionable and downright fraudulent people and businesses. The "do over" business plan works very well in this hobby, because so many people aren't willing to call a spade a spade, which allows the questionable businesses to keep rolling right along.

Default Where are my items?
I paid via credit card on Nov. 21. I've never even received a shipping confirmation. I've emailed 3 times with no response. I called today and their mailbox is full, which is no surprise based on the other posts.

Has anyone had any lucky speaking to anyone from Crazy Uncle?

Thanks,
Mike Henry

I heard they were going to change the name to Lazy Uncle, but they never got around to it.

In their defense, that would require a lot of scratching out the 'CR' and writing a "L' on their letterhead. Which will take a LOT of ink.
