Hi Amanda, As we discussed by phone today, we are making arrangements for shipment of the new bear with delivery before Christmas, as well as searching to see if we can locate the more specific color that we were temporarily out of stock. We will update you this weekend.

Hi Monica, Oh boy, you are right. We really have had problems coping with the insanely large increase in orders these last few weeks before Christmas. As a result, customer service has been spotty at best, as we moved all our employees (including customer servce) towards the task of actually fulfilling all the orders. We are adding additional customer service reps, but unfortunately it takes time to train each new customer service rep, so there still is not as many as is needed - but it is slowly improving. After reviewing your order I see that you had selected the "Add Your Voice" option to your stuffed animal. At the time of your order, our system for handling the voice add-on was very flawed, (Our fault for releasing the feature before the system was perfected), and your order (as well as several other "add your voice" orders) got delayed as a result. We have since fixed the issue that caused the delays when adding your voice, as now customers adding their voice simply call this dedicated toll-free phone number right after they pay for their order, that walks the customer through the process and records the voice message on the spot. This enables us to much more quickly make your stuffed animal with your voice inside and ship it way faster then before. But I know this information doesn't fix your problem of waiting.... and calling... and calling.. with no response. So here is what we are doing: 1. We called you a few minutes ago, and left you a voice mail with a dedicated phone number you can reach us at, as well as the toll-free number (1-888-988-5961) to re-record your voice message. 2. We refunded all your money. (We sent you an email confirmation of the refund also). 3. We will ship your Big Plush animal for free to arrie before Christmas, as follows: As soon as you call 1-888-988-5961 and record your voice message, we will begin work adding your voice to the big plush animal you selected, and we will ship it within 24 hours of receiving your voice message. (It WILL arrive before Christmas as long as we receive your voice message within the next few days). We are so very sorry that your first experience with us has been a bad one. Hopefully we can make it a little better. Feel free to call the phone number left on your voice mail to discuss what more we can do to help. Thank you for your business.

What can we say except, we blew it. We began offering the "add your voice" service before we should have, and there were still kinks that needed to be worked out. The service now works fine - but that wasn't the case here. Although there is no way we can make up for this, we have sent multiple shipments (including a new replacement voice module that does work), and we had already refunded 100% of the order. We are truly sorry, and have indeed learned our lesson, so as to avoid this from happening again. If by chance you experience ANY problem with the replacement voice module, let us know, and we'll ship a new one asap.

We are sorry about this - looks like two duplicate international orders were made at approximately the same time, and we dropped the ball by not verifying if one order was an accidental duplicate order. As per our phone discussion today with customer, we are doing the two things that we promised we would do, in order to ultimately resolve this to our customer's satisfaction. We will actively follow-up again with our customer in a week to make sure customer is satisfied with service and product, or if there is more that we need to do.
