I purchased 4 items through Poshofdepot.com and I can't find them anywhere. It cost me $78.47 and the confirmation # is 9609ZD1JST3Y. How do I go about finding these people? I really need help. These items were Christmas presents. Thank YouJeannie
It is virtually impossible to find them because they may be located overseas. Open a dispute with your bank to have your money refunded.
