I can understand your concern about the extreme amount of time that transpires from order date to date of receipt, as I have ordered from Starcrest many times but, not to worry! I have never not received merchandise or were sent incorrect/ omitted items. I enjoy their catalog as I am an avid "junk-store" junkie. Though not junk, I will admit that some of their merchandise is somewhat of a lesser quality than hoped, but their prices are incredible. However, that is no different than when you walk into your local dollar store and purchase something that falls apart almost immediately. The only difference with Starcrest of California is that, as a consumer, we are unable to rely on the convenience of getting in our cars and driving it back to place of purchase for instant gratification insofar as replacement or refund. We must go through the headache of returning the item and waiting, again, for what I imagine also to be an extreme amount of time. Personally, I will continue shopping with them, as many people have mentioned, for their awesome off-the-wall merchandise that can be found nowhere else, and I hope others will as well. I simply do not ever expect to receive my "goodies" very quickly.
