Bought and paid for "Nomad's Notes" (downloadable) from the
Shop on Thursday evening and got an email msg from
Shop-Admin Friday PM saying "This information will be sent to you shortly via email..."
And since then... Nothing...
Now I could have bought this directly from Nomad's Notes site ($7 more) with immediate download... But buying merchandise through the EO
shop adds to the coffers - so... Do the right thing...
Sent a note to
Shop-Admin expressing my disappointment and querying when... But it's the weekend now... Have to wait til Monday for someone to send me an email with a download link... So that's why I'm unhappy...

Now for starters I don't think you were bagging this site as some have said...... some get very protective of their community!
And in my opinion you have raised a very valid point that maybe can be addressed for future shoppers and save them the grief.
Some have to understand every grip is valid and if use correctly by the powers to be can lead to better customer service and happier customers.
The customers who you don't want are the ones with a gripe who don't tell you.
Jedo_03 A+ for your efforts...... people come on here bagging other retailers for bad this bad that and people agree......end of the day EO is a retail
shop and is no different to any other.
Hopefully this thread doesn't get removed.
And as for buying software.... when I buy software I want it now.... not next week, there are many software resellers where you can buy software from who offer instant download via a third party or direct from the developers site...... Might be something EO can look at for the future...... this is a way of the future.

I agree, if the site owners are happy for the
forum to be used as a "wailing wall" for complaints about goods &
services, ( which I tend to disagree with it being allowed), then they must be prepared for people to air their grievances against the site itself.
To their credit they have left this here, but it surprises me that they haven't responded.

I'm sure they'll respond after the weekend
No need for any over-reaction though. They do a great job on the whole. I have been disappointed in a very similar circumstance to the OP but on the whole, the people who run this site and
shop do a great job. They're just not perfect.
