Saw this on tumblr, thought it might answer some questions posted here. Not in anyway affiliated or know them. Just trying to help people here out.
oncerning Snaps4u…
First of all, we would like to thank you as a community for making us feel welcome and wanted. You have no idea how much it has meant to us, and we are glad that we were able, for a time, to fill a need. We take a lot of pride in quality, value, and customer satisfaction. All of us here, Danny, Mommy Missi, and Betty, thank you for some great times. It has been the culmination of a lot of know-how, determination, and love for the community at large.
Unfortunately, bad times have hit us hard. Our head seamstress, Betty, has become very ill, and the prognosis is not good at all. We found out a couple months ago that she has inoperable, uncurable cancer. She has, at best, a couple weeks, and is now in hospice care here in Houston. We are spending as much time as we can with her, so all production has ceased. As you can probably imagine, our hearts are not really in this right now. We don’t know when, or even if, we will return to doing this sort of business, as Betty was not only the head seamstress, but a lot of the driving force behind the business. She loved happy littles. She loved to make great outfits for all of you. The best thing that you can do for her is pray. We have no doubt where she will be on the other side.
As a result of all of this, we have also lost our house. All of our equipment has either had to be sold, or put into storage. We are in the process of reinventing ourselves, and we can’t honestly say that we may ever go back to the business. We might, but we have a lot of healing to do first.
Snaps4u was the work of only 3 people; Danny, Missi, and Betty. Danny and Missi are a lifestyle, married couple; Danny is a little, 3 years old, and Mommy Missi, his loving Mommy. Betty is Danny’s actual mother, very much loved and extremely talented. She has always been very supportive of their choice of lifestyle, and loved them very much. Some of you actually got to meet her at CAPCon. Unfortunately, she has declined since she returned from that.
We are ok. We will be ok. As far as those of you that have orders placed and unfulfilled, it will take us a while, but we have records of everything, and your money will be refunded. We are beyond strapped for cash, and at this point, really have no assets to sell to get the needed cash. More than likely, we will have to take regular day jobs, and pay back what we can, when we can.
Please accept our apologies to all of you. We will make it right. No fraud or bad intentions were ever intended. The only thing that went wrong was that we didn’t have a lot of time to prepare for this. It has happened so fast, and if you think the demands of the business aren’t enough, consider for a moment the fact that we have not only lost our business, our home, and almost everything that is dear to us, we are also losing Danny’s mother, and we are having a very tough time.
Our apologies to the community and our loyal customers.
Much Love,
Danny and Mommy Missi, formerly Snaps4u
