    Communication starts to wane:

    I never received the tracking number or any proof of postage. Most of the responses from here on out were very short and lacked explanation of any kind.

    At this point I was starting to get a bit nervous and proposed a refund. They used my tail in another commission opening post on twitter and Instagram.

    When I looked into their Instagram I found a few comments from commissioners complaining about not receiving their commissions. (I cannot make any statements on these peoples behalf's and have no proof of their transactions. These screenshots are only provided to explain my motivation for filing a Paypal dispute.)

    I eventually decided to go through with the chargeback which closed in my favor on Jan 31st 2020. Was a really hard decision for me this time since they had actually completed the tail.

    I did say that I would be willing to send the money straight back to them if I received a tracking number or proof of postage. But unfortunately I haven't received any messages since.

    Curious why this was downgraded to caution when I've still not heard anything from this maker?

    Bewares are reserved for posts where you are actively owed money. Since you got your money back, albeit via PayPal, it was automatically dropped to Caution.
