I saw an Instagram advertisement for a small business owned by a woman named Mary in New York who stated " after years I have come to the difficult decision to close my shop." I placed an order in support advertised as "express shipping". I requested shipping to CT. Then I noticed on the order confirmation that the shipping origin is China. I made multiple attempts to contact "Mary". I received delayed emails that had robot sounding verbage. Initially, I was told the shipping address could easily be changed to my permanent MA address since "express shipping" from China would not arrive to CT within the week that I was there. Again, delayed email responses that concluded February 22nd stating the shipping could not be changed. I googled the company and found MULTIPLE warnings from people stating that the company is not who they say they are, not in the USA, and not individually made high quality.
