WHO: Crystal-for-ever

WHERE: http://www.furaffinity.net/user/crystal-for-ever/

WHAT: Wing It Commission -Two Character Adult Piece-

WHEN: Commissioned and Paid May 10th 2013. Final contact April 18th 2014, Unresolved.

PROOF: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/klb764ym9hk0299/Artists%20Beware%20Log.png

EXPLAIN: Note Logs explain it all, but, commissioned her, waited over a year for the piece, communication was shoddy at best, wouldn't refund, gives no ETA, defends the wait by saying she's waited 2 years for art before. From what little I can see before she deletes the comments, this isn't new for her.

Current Mood:Frustrated

EDIT: Sep. 29th 2014 Update: Was talking with the artist, still won't refund but is offering to make the wait up to me by doing the piece she was paid to do. Oh, and a sketch. I've included the full conversation below. The TLDR is she asked me to take this post down and offered to finish the piece she never started... after I give her the info again, I told her I'm not interested in trying to get the art out of her anymore, after over a year, I just want my refund. Excuses follow, she really wants to settle the dispute art wise and offered to do a little extra in a sketch as her way of fixing this.

PROOF: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/pw21jzcahg3m19k/Update%20Log.png

EDIT: Sep. 29th 2014 Update: I listened to what she had to say, I told her I want my refund. Full log right there. It's similar to talking to a brick wall. I don't think this will get resolved.

PROOF: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/h8yjxwfqivhl3d3/Second%20Update%20Log.png

EDIT: Sep. 29th 2014 Update: Issue resolved. She has issued my full refund.

I'm not 100% sure but I think English MIGHT not be her first language? I could be wrong.

No, she is American. So English is her first language.

Ok, thanks for the clarification! I just wonder because sometimes her English seems VERY broken. Guess it could just be lazyness.

Actually, that isn't always the case. For all we know she may be a first-generation American where the primary language in her home is one other than English. Just because someone is American does not make English their primary language, after all.

Alright, going to nip this in the bud before it goes off topic any further.
