k, i thought you guys were in the united states?
[kylie]: Yes, Our headquater located in CA
[Me]:are shipments coming out of china?
[kylie]: We have warehouses all over the world
[Me]:i just want to confirm that's why shipping is taking 7-14 days. i assumed you guys were shipping from california and thought it would be here faster.
[kylie]: ^_*
[kylie]: Because it is out of stock in our American Warehouse, so it is an oversea shipping from one of our warehouses located in Asian.
[Me]:thanks for help. i'll make a note of it.
[kylie]: you are welcome. thank you for your support "
there were some extremely long pauses between some questions and answers. made me feel like they were trying to make up excuses as it went along.
