The order was fulfilled last Friday 15 February. Quality of the kit is good, no issues there. Yet to take it out on a trip - I missed my opportunity unfortunately while waiting for delivery - but the build is solid and as advertised. No rules were broken per se, Gold Dog is not a scam, but there are areas of improvement.
At the end of the day the issue here was that Crampo was occupied with personal issues and that is completely understandable, we all have personal lives which take priority, except there was no communication to say so (a note on the website would've been fine, to the effect of "Due to personal issues, there is a backlog of orders"). Would've taken 5 minutes to write and I would've gone into this purchase expecting a delay and even lack of communication. I've not yet actually spoken directly with Crampo, Fair Trading emailed him and he responded immediately with an explanation of the situation and provided an ETA for order fulfilment.
There is now a note on the Mini Trommel/Sluice page stating there is a small backlog on orders so that's something.
