Gee, I wonder if this is the same one I have an issue with.

I put in an order, got the usual notification email from Brickbay,
and then attempted to contact the seller by email for shipping cost/info.

All messages bounced back to me as having an invalid address on AOL.
Since I did have a name, I went so far as to chase the guy down by phone
in another state to ask him about it.  The basic upshot of our conversation
was that:

1.  Well, he'd kind of lost interest in Brickbay.
2.  He wasn't really sure that he wanted to sell the set in question.
3.  But he would if I would email him at his new address.

He then gave me ANOTHER invalid address.

He's got only a few sets listed on Brickbay, and basically as I see it,
he's stopped servicing orders without bothering to close up his shop.

Very annoying, but I don't see what meaningful I can do about it.
I figure that the upside is that I haven't sent him any money.

Advice, please:

Do I have a right to make very public the problem I am having with a
particular Brickbay vendor?

At this point, I am so teed off that I can barely look at my bricks because
I am being held up on a project by the parts I am still waiting to hear
about after *six* weeks.  Not one email from this person.

Help,

Tanya
