On December 7, 2014 I placed an order for various parts for my KitchenAid stand mixer as MendingShed.com offered the lowest prices I could find. On December 19th I called about the order as I had not heard anything about it for almost two weeks. I was told by the woman I spoke with that the order had been shipped out and I would receive it the following day (Saturday) or the day after. The day after being a Sunday I thought it strange but I foolishly didn?t ask for a tracking number before I hung up. With the holidays I sort of forgot about the order until December 29 when I called in and was told that the order never shipped and that some of the items in my order were on back order since Thanksgiving but that their shipment would arrive to their offices that week and my shipment would be sent out on Thursday of that week, January 1st, a national holiday. On January 7th I called in and was informed that the items were still on back order and it would be shipped out when they received them. \r

On January 20th I called in again and was told that my order had shipped. I was given a tracking number but was informed that it was not valid as it actually hadn?t yet shipped but was ready to ship so I couldn?t check the tracking until it had actually left the facility. No big deal, at least I had a tracking number. The following day I skeptically checked the USPS tracking number to find that, indeed, my package was on it?s way for delivery and was at a post office in Salt Lake City, Utah waiting to go out. \r

Today, January 22nd, more than a month and a half after ordering my parts, I checked the tracking number to find that my package has indeed been delivered, some 2,300 miles away from my home to Chardon, Ohio. I called in again and the customer service woman verified my address in California and seemed a bit confused as to how this could have happened but took down my phone number and said that she?d call me tomorrow with information about what happened with my order. At this point I?ve finally done what I should have done a month ago and gone ahead and cancelled the order through PayPal and will be purchasing elsewhere. \r

While I can?t say that your experience will be the same I?d highly advise against using this business to make an online purchase.
