haha I had the exact same thing.
I actually tried to cancel 2 days after ordering but it was "to late" apparantly, but that is fair enough I guess (not complaining about that).
But yeah your replies were exact same as mine. So many diff excuses, one after another. Literally had to chase after them or never would of gotten any sort of reply. In the end I was like how about I sell you back the gold you havn't sent me after like a month, and I'll just take the loss in $$.
Pretty sure there is something in the BBB (or whatever the business consumer thingo in U.S.A is called, I can't remember, I'm fron AUS) that is pretty specific about selling gold and or giving refunds if they can't produce the product and don't notify you.. I know in my case I was never notified about any delays.. It was just after constantly chasing them they would say 'ah yip expect it in 2-3 days' then repeat for a number of weeks.
