Would that by any chance be French? If so, I can feel your pain. :)

Yes, it is!
The fun thing is that I can overall understand what they say (YAY NEOLATIN LANGUAGES! XD), but when it's about translating it literally--- UGH!

Well, good for you. :) I was translating my company's website into Polish a while back - not only couldn't I understand some phrases in English, but also one of our local Frenchmen couldn't understand the same parts in French. :D I have a feeling both versions were written by a Mexican. XD

Knowing those people, I'd say it's pretty likely. XD

PS. On a totally unrelated note - when you receive a paypal payment, how long does it usually take? I've cancelled an order in an on-line shop recently (waiting 5 months for a CD will do this to you) and I'd like to know how long should I wait before I start sending them a shitload of reminders. :)

Well, you get the payment almost instantly... But if you wanna know how long it takes to get your money back I've no idea, it never happened to me... In case I'll ask around my friends and let you know!

Thanks a lot, but since I still didn't get any notification, I guess they ignored me. Oh well, I'll send them a reminder in the evening - if it doesn't help, I'll spam them with "WTF WHERE'S MY MONEY BITCHES!!!!1111jeden" or something in this fashion. :)
