Kristi - thank you.  I am not very familiar with this forum, and tend to get a bit ..... lost.  Hopefully now the right folks will see this posted.

Vilian - thank you too!  Your experience matches mine - but at least you got the boots!  On ShareCG it was the same thing, and yes, I was one of the people who complained.  That was why I wanted to check in here first before I cried "WOLF!" (or should that be ...."before I cried HAMSTER!?).  Hopefully admin here will send them packing too.- this is NOT in the spirit of Rendorosity's FreeStuff.

PS:  All Hail Ye Mighty Rodent Sisters....WOOHOOOOOOOOO!
