^great info guys^
An update on mine- solar.jean is not impressing me...
They sent me a tracking number a few days ago (I paid 9 days ago now), but FedEx says that the destination for this tracking number is someone named Ellen in North Carolina??? (I an Mike from Omaha). This is starting to smell funny, so I opened up an ebay case just to cover my tail.
Language barrier or not, they should be able to provide a real tracking number nine days after a purchase takes place. That is not asking too much.
I'd be interested to get a second opinion on the following email exchange:

Thanks very much for the purchase.
We have ship out the item to you by Fedex yesterday.
Because we use Hongkong Fedex ship the item to you, it need to take about two to three days to delivery the package to Hongkong handling center, there they will update a new tracking number for the package, we will inform you the update tracking number once get it from the handling center, please wait a few time latter, very sorry for the delay!

The tracking number you send has a destination of RALEIGH, NC? Mine should say OMAHA, NE.

thanks for your reply,Yes,you are right,I see
Actually,we sent the product to you as your ebaby address.In general idea.Fedex express will dispatch the product to you as exact address.Maybe it's problem for Fedex express.
Anyway,Maybe you can contact with your local Fedex express so that they will dispatch the product to you ASAP.
I also will consult with our shipping company,I will track the product until you receive it.Pls don't worry,my friend.

Well, FedEx says that unless my name is Ellen and I live in NC, this vendor has not sent me anything. I buy stuff from China all the time, and this one just seems "off". We'll see.
