Quick update: As DW stated, the feedback for the company seemed contrived, so I went to ebay with my concerns, and they agreed with me (but wouldn't state anything definitively). Surprisingly, I received a message from the supplier saying the item would be shipped within 48 hours. We'll see. FYI, ebay won't refund the transaction until after the due date. I could go to PayPal, but will give the supplier 48 hours.
