Hi everyone, I'm note sure where else to post this, but here it goes... I placed an order on June 1st on the OpenBuldsParts Store, and the status has been sitting at Awaiting Fulfillment since then. All the parts that I ordered were in stock, and the FAQ page states that most orders ship in 1-2 business days. I'm still somewhat hopeful - but my order hasn't been shipped yet, and what's worse is that they haven't replied to my emails in 3 days. It's a small business, I get that, but not replying to emails is very sketchy, especially because its the only way of contacting them since they don't provide a phone number. This brings me to question the legitimacy of the OpenBuildsParts Store website... is this business even real? I hope that it is, because the concept is really cool, and I was hoping to order more supplies after receiving this 'test' one (which would have just enough parts for me to begin my project)... I don't really have much confidence that they'll deliver anymore. What have others experiences been like? Have I been scammed?
I ordered on the 30th and they shipped late in the day on the 3rd. This is my fourth order and the first one that took more than 2 days. But as they recently restocked a lot of materials, they have probably been slammed with orders. Nothing to worry about. You should be about due.
Hello @otourko Mark here from the OpenBuilds team. We apologize for the delay and will be shipping your order asap.

Thank you @Rick 2.0 for your helpful response Mark
Hi Everyone, I have placed 3 separate orders, May 5, May 27 and June 3. Everything I ordered was listed as In Stock, which is the reason for the 3 orders. I was informed a couple of days ago that the May 27 order shipped and today that the June 3 order shipped. However, the May 5 order is still awaiting fulfillment. I can't understand why the later orders shipped before the first, especially since everything was In Stock. Problem is that I won't be able to start building anything until the first order comes in. That and the fact that it is being shipped to the Philippines means that by the time it gets here and goes through Customs, I should be finishing my OX around Christmas. Any reply on what is happening?
Hello @Ed Betlinski Good news! You order has shipped timely on May 7th. Tracking is showing that it has cleared customs on May 31st so you should expect to receive it soon. Tracking Number: CJ188942622US https://tools.usps.com/go/TrackConfirmAction!input.action?tRef=qt&tLc=1&tLabels=CJ188942622US
