Did I Get Scammed?

On 2/19 I placed an order to get my iPod's battery replaced, and on 2/20 I shipped it out to the place. The package was delivered the next day on 2/21. According to them, they would ship it back to me within 3 buisness days. So far, it's been 8 buisness days and still no word on the situation. I'm going to email them tonight I think and see what's up. Do you guys think I got scammed? The thing is, it all looked legit and the order was secure, which did not lead me to believe that this was a scam...

EDIT: The company is Kokopelli Music.
 
I think its funny that people are okay being forced to load mp3 players with proprietary software, and unable to change their own product battery. 😛

The order being "secure" means nothing if you are dealing with scammers.

Why haven't you tried e-mailing them before the 8 days were up?

From looking at their site, there's nothing there to lead me to believe they are scammers.
