Order still not fulfilled…

I am surprised I was invited do give a review. It has been nearly a month since I placed my order. There was no notice about buckwheat being out of stock or delayed when I ordered. I have contacted Seed Barn twice about updates, and all I’ve heard back is, ‘next week’ and ‘soon.’ If it isn’t in, say it isn’t in and give me a date. I’ll be cancelling my entire order as soon as one month elapses. I don’t understand this at all.
