Communication impossible

I ordered a skate deck 3 weeks ago. I ordered from the US, and paid to have it shipped internationally. I thought it was strange that it hadn’t shipped after a week. So, I reached out over email, through the shop app (which they suggest you download to track your shipment), as well as through the messenger tool on their website. I made regular attempts over the last few weeks.

I was unassuming when I reached out. Perhaps there was a challenge with shipping information. Perhaps there was some kind of mistake on my end. But I was unable to reach anyone. As a matter of fact, one of the emails was returned to me as undeliverable, due to the mailbox being full.

At this point, I figured a review was the best way to get in touch. I wouldn’t mind waiting, so long as I had a little communication- and some assurance that the purchase would be shipped at some point.

Never received my order

I can only presume this company has gone bust. I placed an order for a skateboard deck on the 16th August and I've still not received it. I've sent multiple emails and I've phoned several times but no answer.
I guess I've just lost £60!!!!!

Ordered bearings on the 20th March and still not received them, sent two emails and no reply, I know Travis at illicit is a small business but communication is key.

Now resolved and new email obtained and he is sorting out the missing bearings

Just need to update the email address on the website

Many thanks
