Nothing but positive experiences from my side too. Friendly, timely communications and great service. Shipping times were on par with orders from other suppliers in the UK.
From the sound of thinks, it looks as if something went wrong with your order/shipment, but I have no explanation for the lack of communication. As you can see, it's not typical for them.
Perhaps sending a PM here on LAF, as proposed by Mad Lord Snapcase would be the best next approach?
