    i would forward him the confirmation from pay pal and ask him to personally acknowledge your order

    mind you there are 2 email addresses where you can reach him
    I did this, however I did not see 2 different email addresses. Guess I'll go back and look again. Thanks for the tip!

    I called him this week with a pricing question. I got him on the first try..

    I would bet he's just the type of guy that keeps himself busy and just doesn't click on his email.

    It seems that his customers are happy with the product and that's all that matters,

    Update: I called him again Wednesday night and he called me back. He did have to look for my order which was somewhat disconcerting but he did find it right away and all's good. He said he'd send me a tracking for the package in about 4 weeks. I can handle that! Assuming that happens, I'll be satisfied.

    Thanks for all the reassurances! It really did help!

    I've posted this before, but my experience with boaphile was:

    1) Place online order
    2) email, no response
    3) two phone calls in the following four weeks, prompt answers to my questions
    4) product arrived exactly when stated it would
    5) I've been very happy with the product for.. 9 months now?

    I'm going to be their customer again in the future for sure.

    this is exactly how I feel as well. I understand that many people require email responses to do business, and perhaps it might be shortsighted to be as unavailable via email as jeff is. however, as I stated previously, the boaphile
    products speak for themselves. it won't be acceptable to everyone in this day and age, but if you can handle a protracted waiting period (ideally by planning ahead), and if you're willing to pick up a phone to ask your questions or verify any ambiguous information, there's no reason you shouldn't order from them.

    also I previously neglected to say that I did receive a tracking number when the rack was completed and dropped off for delivery. it was the only electronic communication I received from the company, and it came six weeks after I'd made the initial purchase, but while jeff may prefer one method of communication over another, he certainly delivers what you pay for.
