Resolved on approximately January 10, 2008. After hiring an attorney I finally collected money from defendant and forfeited one third of the money in attorney fees; ie, approximately $660. Has taken approximately one year to resolve this because Defendant would not refund me what she owed me nor would she deliver the merchandise to me when requested to do so.

I had to hire an attorney and have obtained a civil judgment in the amount of $1600.00, plus court costs against the owner of Pattysdollhouse.com, which is Patricia Watson-Tufte, after not being able to get her to send my merchandise or refund my money. I have been advised that my case file has been forwarded by a detective in the police department for the City of Champaign to the State's Attorney Office to determine if they will prosecute for Consumer Fraud along with another case similar to mine that has recently been filed against Ms. Watson-Tufte.

Without any real advance notice, Pattys Dollhouse sends an email on 4/12/07 that she is sending "my" merchandise and the "same" day the postal service advises of a delivery. This is approximately 80 days after I was to be shipped the merchandise. In my opinion this is "too little, too late" considering I have had to pursue legal action to get anything accomplished. In my opinion, if the seller had the merchandise that I purchased; it would have been sent the numerous times I requested it be shipped in late January and early February, 2007. The merchandise was refused and returned to sender.
