That all sounds a little weird. If they are closing, I assume they are only selling off what they have in stock and not ordering any new merchandise, correct? So how on earth could anything be on "backorder"? Either they have it, or they don't. And if they have it, why wait two weeks to ship it? I know they must be busy, but to have someone order a jacket that they have on hand now, and tell them they can't ship it out for two weeks.... just seems a bit odd.
