Update;

Swimtails messaged me (and others with similar messages);

Hello Madison, we apologize about the delay, we will begin shipping late next week and it looks like your order is on priority and will be shipped as such, one it does you will receive email notification
I'm cautiously optimistic. I had asked to cancel my order and, barring a reply, would request a charge-back. Given they did reply before Friday (if just), I've decided to wait another week. If they actually ship, excellent. I genuine hope they're getting back on their feet.


If I don't get a shipping confirmation by the end of next week, then I'll have to assume this is a stalling tactic. I genuinely hope that's not the case. They do make a great tail... Fingers crossed.
