🏁 RACE TSHIRT UPDATE 🏁
We feel that everyone who supported us by placing a pre-order deserves to know what is going on with the shirt order.
On July 15th, we paid in full for racing shirts and the artwork, totaling $2,120.75. These shirts were ordered using money that we collected through your pre-orders and adding a little of our own money!
This wasn’t just another racing shirt order for us. These shirts were being made as a tribute to Arlin, who we lost earlier this year. This was something that was very meaningful to our family, and we were excited to be able to honor his memory through our racing program and share that tribute with all of you who supported us.
Unfortunately, the order was never completed.
After multiple attempts to contact the person handling the order, we were eventually told that he was unable to fulfill the order and would be refunding our money. We have been extremely patient and have given multiple opportunities for this to be resolved. Unfortunately, despite several promises that the money would be returned, we still have not received our refund.
What makes this situation especially upsetting to us is that someone was entrusted with something that was deeply personal to our family and was also paid with money entrusted to us by our supporters. We feel that our situation and the significance of these shirts were taken advantage of.
The situation became even more concerning when tracking information was provided to PayPal as proof of delivery. That tracking number was for a package delivered to an address in Ohio — an address that is not ours and has nothing to do with our order. We never received our shirts.
At this point, we have active cases with PayPal and have provided documentation of the transaction, our communications, the promised refund, and the tracking information that was provided.
We want everyone to know that we have not forgotten about your money. We know that many of you trusted us, supported our racing program, and paid for shirts that you expected to receive. We take that responsibility seriously.
We are doing everything we can to recover the money and make this right for everyone who placed an order. ❤️
We will keep everyone updated as soon as we have a definitive resolution.
We are incredibly sorry for the delay and frustration. This is not how we wanted this shirt order to go, especially considering what these shirts meant to our family.
Thank you to everyone who has been patient, understanding, and supportive. Your support means more to us than you know. ❤️🏁
