EDIT: Notwithstanding the hurt feelings of several poor souls who have posted below, this is not a "complaint"; it is a question, as you can see, if you read it. I think it's a legitimate question, and in dealing with a company doing most of its business on the internet, probably most of it through CGN, I happen to think this is a legitimate place to ask that question. And no, it didn't take me longer to copy and paste these two emails than it would have to phone them.
So I placed an order on May 26, filling in my credit card and shipping info. I received an email as follows:
Then I never heard anything until today when I got this email.
Okay, so (a) I certainly did not request the order to be cancelled, (b) I paid at the time I made the order (gave you all my credit card info and shipping and billing addresses), and never heard anything from you that the payment did not go through or that I needed to pay again or that I made a mistake entering my info (I didn't receive any emails in between), and (c) you don't need my PAL to send me two magazines.
So what's the deal?

Canada Ammo Order #3989### Receipt
Thanks for ordering from Canada Ammo
Thank you for your order.
Most orders ship within 2-3 business days of processing your order and depending on your location most items should be received within 5 business days from time of shipping. Products that were transferred through the CFC and have been approved are generally shipped within 2 business days of receipt of approval. We receive approvals from the CFC by email, mail and fax, we also call in to the CFC every 2 days to check on transfers in case paperwork was missed being sent or to resolve any issues. If there are any issues, we will generally email you unless the CFC tells us that they are contacting you directly.
Orders are normally processed within 1-2 business days from the time of ordering though we are always working on shortening that delay of time. Some delays apply for transfer through the CFC for firearms from us to you. Some very infrequent delays may occur; for example if your order is large enough, we may arrange a truck for delivery which takes a bit of extra time or sometimes the product may be way back in behind other product in the warehouse and we may have to move everything to get to it, as much as we try to be prepared, it unfortunately does happen.
Please note that all orders, because of our industry, have to be manually processed, as credit card processors consider us a "High-Risk" industry. This takes more time compared to other on-line retailers for other commercial goods.
You will receive an email with status updates for your order every time there is a status change. If you need to see the status update of your order, you can login to Canadaammo.com to check the status. We make every effort to ship your order within 3 days of receiving the order. In the case of restricted firearms, we ship within 3 days of receiving the CFC transfer approval. In order for us to initiate a restricted transfer, we need both your club name and birth city. If an order has not shipped within 10 business days of the time you placed the order, please feel free to contact us.
