Shopping Monster Strikes Again

(1/2) > >>

Happy:
I am truly beside myself on this one.  The happy girl is just about ready to cry over a dumb game.We all know the churro cart sob story.  Here goes today's dilema...if you want to hear a rant...I, like everyone, work so very hard to earn credits. Here is my short story...10K gone no shark pin. I am so very careful and slow when I shop after having an issue last fall.

My letter to VMK Shorty at Contact Us...
Shopping Problem:
First, I shop slowly and confirm each message box that pops up in the process. I do know what I purchase and I do know there was a shark magic (full use) confirmation box.

9:56AM VMK Time Saturday March 1, 2008
Location Magic Shop N-N-N-W
Starting Credits X credits
Ending Credits x less 10,000
Purchased Shark Magic Full Use. Saw confirm mssage for shark magic. No shark pin in inventory.

Please, let me say it again with specific details. After having a shopping mishap in Fall 2007 where I ended up with 9 churro carts instead of 9 weekend pins I am very careful when shopping. I now go slow and verify each purchase and confirm message. Next, I check my inventory. ( To this day I swear there were weekend pin confirmation messages on that purchase last fall...again regardless of what their shopping report showed.  This time I will not let it go!)

I do know that today I selected and confirmed the purchase of SHARK MAGIC today at approximately 9:56AM PST. Please help. I can't afford to not receive what I ordered in the magic shop. I know I ordered a shark pin regardless of what any purchase reports show. I did recheck my inventory for 10 minutes. I also logged out and back in to VMK. Still, no shark pin. Boo! 

In advance thank you for your help.

If they tell me I purchased a pin other than shark magic I will be so beyond upset.  I can't afford to spend 10K on something I did not order.

Thanks for listening.

Update:
About 50 minutes after my initial purchase and a short time after publicly posting, the pin appeared
Thanks to any magic that may have happened behind the scenes. 
We know it was not Duck Intervention.

Thank goodness your story had a happy ending, Happy!  Do you think all the major lag contributed to the lag of you receiving your pin (although I got mine without any wait but that was at opening pacific time)?

Happy:
I have no idea. One would think logging out and back would have found it.  50 minutes was a long time to wait.  The credits left without lag.   :rofl1:

Cloudymellowdisco:
Good point!  But I'm sure you're agreeing with the "better late than never" slogan right now!!   :thumb:
