Hello, I was hoping to get in touch with anyone who knows @burdwow /Tori personally.
I had ordered a 2 character commission, waist up, on Jan. 2nd of this year and I still have been unable to receive any updates since the initial sketch and a post-work of color that was shown on her tumblr later that month.
I was able to last speak with her in May and since then it’s been silent. I’ve not been able to get a response through emails, both I have of hers, as well as tumblr fan mail. I see all three tumblrs are active and she’s been taking commissions so I was hoping to either get my money back (because ten months is far too long,) or have my commission completed.
Please ask her to get in contact with me. Thank you!
I also commissioned Burdwow in January, when I first received a sketch, and since then I’ve never once been able to get I contact with her. I’ve sent both emails and asks on her blog simply asking for some sort of update, and then two months ago I requested a refund, which I never got a reply to. The length of time the commission has taken would NOT have bothered me if it weren’t for the fact I’ve been out right ignored for this long. At this point I just want a refund.
So if anyone can help us get in contact with her it would be greatly appreciated!
I basically had this exact same problem. I paid them in january, went a month without a sketch, finally got an email back in february saying they were “in the middle of my sketch” and then didn’t hear anything for two weeks.
Not particularly impressed, I initiated a paypal dispute, and finally heard back from them a good 4 days later. It was pretty obvious they didn’t spend three months on the sketch, but by then I was tired of trying to get blood from a stone, so I told them it was okay. However the never actually responded to paypal (or to me after that) so I escalated the dispute to a claim, which they also didn’t respond to, and got my money back.
Honestly my suggestion to the two of you (and everyone else) is to do the same thing and initiate a refund because obviously emailing doesn’t work.
Please reblog if you are over 25 years old. I need to convince myself that I’m not just communicating with 13 year olds. Not that they aren’t nice mind you, but sometimes I feel like the only old person on tumblr.
You get yanked around. He forgets about your commission and I guess hey, pretends to be his wife whenever asked about a refund.
It has been over a year since I sent Genzo money. I had to send him all the character information twice because of a reason he never stated.
You get such winners like that email! Where he claims to have sent the image, I have had this happen a couple of times. I have asked him to resend this supposed sketch for approval…. no response given.
Oh surely I must be over reacting- nah.
He keeps saying he sent a sketch. I have NEVER seen it enter my email. I have asked repeatedly for him to resend it and he ignores those messages. And yes I kept a sharp watch on my junk box.
It’s okay though, every time I inquire about a refund he pretends to be his wife.
AND
The best best part about this is- look at this tweet from just the day before
NEVER COMMISSION GENZOMAN. He is unprofessional and terrible with communication.
Hahah I thought i saw something about him and commissions lately.
