So I ordered some Bont shoes on 30 Sept and haven't received a shipping confirmation yet. I emailed them today and I got an automated response saying they are out for a national holiday from 1-7 October. That's a whole week off :eek: Anyone know what holiday it is? I'm just looking forward to having Monday off for Columbus day, even if I won't have my new shoes :banana:

If you think is ridiculous, actually could be worse, in puerto rico they have the american and the spanish hollidays... if u order something in november, you wont get the stuff easy all the way march next year :P

My son is having problems with a 3D printer form a Chinese based company and their website had a notification that they would be shut down for the same week for some form of holiday.

Holiday in Australian means vacation in American. Vacation in Australian means holiday in American. They took the week off.
