Sheesh, Diva. Payup. After what you've done here tonight added to
the sheer lunacy of your actions last night I think you owe Shop a
full refund, a big public apology and a promise to not sell on E-bay
anymore until you learn some manners and business ethics.

Might be a setup alright. The part about sending the accidently shoes to Texas was a poor diversion. The cat biting Bunny Swan is unrealistic too ( unless it's a Siamese cat .. mean buggers! ). I smells a rat.

Quite a cat here, to open a box, take out a shoe & chew on it & then rip up the note.
I would love to see a picture of the chewed shoe, how about posting one.
I don't know who DesignDiva is, but she is not the seller, idiots like that do not sell 300.00 shoes.

I know there are some mean cats out there. My dad's cat attacks me whenever I go over to his place. He named her Hannah after the Hannibal in those horror movies. He had to have her declawed because she was so vicious. And I had a cat that would eat boxes and chew up anything he could. They're worse than dogs.
It would be cool to see an auction # and check this out. The seller said she already left neg fb.

McJane - I have a cat that craves Avery laser labels. He's worse than any drug fiend I've ever met in the lengths he will go to to get to the labels. I keep the boxes of labels on a shelf - I've had to put a book on top of the boxes because he could open them, grab a sheet and then run off under the bed to enjoy his little feast. I've also had to find closed cabinets to store priority boxes in because he will rip the paper off the adhesive strip and gobble it in under 30 seconds. While I am trying to protect my label supply from one cat the other is breaking into cabinets to find plastic grocery bags which he will chew on and lick for hours. After watching the havok that these two will reap, I put nothing beyond a cat. The are just as bad as dogs, just less conspicuous about it.

I did a search on all the ended shoes in the past 30 days that ended in that price range and I do not see what the item could be.

How do you do a category search on closed items? I didn't see a link for it. the only way I know is to use at least one keyword, but we have no idea what the title was.

LOL, How funny, must be the sticky stuff because I also have a cat that likes sticky stuff, scotch tape, & always chews the part that is off the roll extending to the cutter.
I have a cat that claws at the front of my shoes if I don't put them in the closet, but I'm glad to say I have never had a cat that would open & empty a package.
I'm just not convinced any of this happened. I think shop is playing a joke on us.
My apologies if I'm wrong, but it seems the unlikely mishaps go on one after another & then all of a sudden this DD signs in & shows up on this board with another mishap, shoes went to Texas by mistake. Now we're talking careless handling of 600.00 worth of shoes. It's all a little toooo much to believe.
So, who is the mysterious DesignDiva........

There's no way to track down that auction even if it did exist. To look you put the word shoes in the search engine and do NOT check the description box. With the TON of results you next click on the price hypertext link to sort the entries by price. The buyer said the price was under $300 including s/h and both seller and buyer are supposedly in Florida. That's the only set of clues in the wild goose chase. Some of the shoe sellers have things like 100% Authentic - USA in the location section so that makes it tough.
You can learn a lot about $300 shoes that way though.

Ah- but you assume shoes is the dominant word to use in the search. You forget that some women seek Stilettos, some Heels, and still others Sandals.... oh,... and don't forget Boots. And I believe you will find thousands of shoes using these as the dominant keyword that do not in fact contain the word SHOES in their title.

Diva...Please don't come on my back patio at 10:30 p.m. to make an unanounced delivery. My daughter has a kitten. He doesn't eat shoes. But my wife's Rottweiler does. Along with the person wearing them.

Okay, I went out for dinner and dancing and came back to this...
1) There is no negative on my feedback.
2) I have have not gotten any more emails from the seller since: Sorry about your troubles. That order is not from me. I had a family emergency and have not shipped your package yet. I will put it in the mail today. I hope everything works out for you. XXXXXXXX
3) I just read the rest of designerdiva's posts. My seller has grasp of basic American. Also the note left on my patio isn't in Swan English. I was in the area and decided to drop these off. I know you wanted them as quickly as possible. Thanks
4) I have mentioned here before that I live in Florida, so anyone could have picked up on that.
5) There wasn't a postcard. The was note on plain paper. Looked like a torn envelope.
I know there are some mean cats out there. My dad's cat attacks me whenever I go over to his place.
My insurance agent says they get just as many claims against cats as they do dogs.
I'm just not convinced any of this happened. I think shop is playing a joke on us.
Most of my friends and relatives don't think I have a since of humor...and I don't when it comes to my goods.
Quite a cat here, to open a box, take out a shoe & chew on it & then rip up the note.
You either don't own a cat or if you do it is puny and weak. The average pair of heels don't weigh much. It doesn't take much to get in a box that isn't taped or tied. He didn't rip the note he chewed it.
unless it's a Siamese cat .. mean buggers!
A couple of them are Siamese and they are real pussycats.
Mcjane: That looks like the cat a few houses down from me.
I would love to see a picture of the chewed shoe, how about posting one.
I own hundreds of pairs of shoes. Quite a few of them have been chewed. I could post numerous photos and you still would not know if they were the shoes in question.
I don't know who DesignDiva is, but she is not the seller, idiots like that do not sell 300.00 shoes.
Many ebay sellers of designer shoes are located in Italy, France or Hong Kong and English is not their native language.
My cat didn't EAT a $300 pair of shoes. He damaged one.
I am waiting until I get an email from the seller before I do anything else.
I still have a headache and the coconut rum has not helped it. Neither has this...

I have seven cats & two dogs, the cats are sweet, one dog is grouchy, the other is an Irish Setter, a perpetual pup.
OK, second thoughts about cats:
One of mine, don't know which one, got into a cabinet & tore up my old income tax records & the cover of a first edition book. Same cabinet, one chewed the corner off a box that held a Waterford crystal fruit bowl. It was a wedding gift for a cousin's daughter, I gave it to her anyway. had to, I didn't want to buy another just for the box.
Yes, my cats are bad.
That probably is the cat from a few houses down, I found his picture on Google.

Three of my lads as babies. They are much much bigger now.
Top Left: Sweet, Huge, Cross-eyed and can't see more than 3 feet in front of himself.
Top right: Lazy, Sloth and sleeps 23 hours a day.
Bottom: Likes flowers and stuffed animals. Will steal either if he thinks no one is watching.
The Mangler. He is the 2nd youngest. Foul personality. I am remodeling my home and he is sitting on a marble medallion I had made for the kitchen. If he catches anyone on the medallion he bites them. If he thinks he is being ignored, something ends up damaged.
This dirty boy is romping amongst the ruins of my living room. Pretty much eveyone hates him, my friends, the neighbors, his brothers other animals....he is just misunderstood. If there is biting to be done, he leads the pack.
I have one more that refuses to be photographed.
