Dave at Interact

Hi, I bought A New Beginning from Dave at Interact on June 14th, it is now the 16th and I still haven't gotten an email from Dave saying the game was shipped. We had to go out today at 11:15 but before we left the house I emailed Dave asking him about this. This is what I wrote in the email to Dave:

Hi, Dave. I ordered A New Beginning on the 14th of June. Your site says games are shipped in 1 business day and when it ships I'll get an email, but I got no such email. Is the game even in stock?

and when we got back I checked (around 2 PM) but there was no reply from Dave. I'm wondering if maybe I offended him in the past so now he refuses to deal with me?

Did you pay with a money order ?

No, I paid by paypal.

Have a little patience.
Dave will usually answer emails within a day, but he won't necessarily get to them within 3 hours after you send them.

I've heard reports from other gamers that Dave replies fast, ships/delivers fast, but I didn't know exactly how fast he was - since this is the first time I bought from him, I've nothing to go by but reports by other members. Can anyone enlighten me on exactly how fast Dave is and how much patience on the game-buyer's part is required?

ABZ if your transaction with Interact went through then you would have recieved a confirmation from paypal and Interact within a minute or so.

I am curious if this is your first transaction with Interact why you think you offended Interact and why you made the same statements several months ago.

Yes, I did get a receipt from Paypal (on Mom's PC b/c our paypal acc't uses her email address since she controls the $$$$), and I got this (in quotes) in my gmail acc't -





Are these (the PP receipt) and this email (in quotes) the confirmation you're talking about, Hat?

If so, then, yes, I did get them almost immediately after I placed the order on the 14th.

Yes that was the confirmation that I was talking about. Since you did not pre order the game you may not get a shipping notice since you already got the confirmation notice.

So what if ..... inconsiderate person - shock! horror! ... Dave is actually unwell and unable to post or respond at present?

Please have some patience AlienBZ. That's my advice. Asked for or not.

Quite correct Gelert !

He could be on vacation. This is the time of year when folks tend to take those.

Thanks, good buddies. I just checked Interact, signed into my acc't and came up with this -

Why not just email or call & ask them ?

Was going to email Dave, but upon checking my email, I found this:
