Backout Inigo Montoya

Post by undeadsoldier »

Alright so I was contacted Keith Griffith, aka Inigo Montoya about my blood angel army. He was interested but only had $350 so I cut out part of the deal and offered it to him with no shipping charge even. He sent me his address, I sent him my paypal and then he stopped communicating. He is a new trader so I blame it on that but it just really ticked me off since he totally just stopped talking. Usually I wouldn’t care if somebody had at least an excuse but this just left me with a bad feeling in my mouth. Thanks for listening to my woes bartertown.

It is almost all painted, dont want to split up this army at all. Most of the army is based with a snow covering and mostly everything is painted (if not it will say).
Mephiston converted with possesed wings.
librarian converted up from chaos sorcerer.
Sanguinor converted with a spear and wings, got the idea from the novel deus sanguinius.
3 sanguinary priests one converted tyranid veteran, looks awesome. One is the chapter master of the dark angels with apothecary bits. The last is converted on a bike with ravenwing cloak and powersword.
honorguard with 4 meltaguns and jump packs, converted up from vanguard vets I believe.
20 assault marines with jump packs, 4 meltaguns, 2 powerfists. Also 5 more stripped, and about 15 extra jump packs for foot models below.
5x deathcompany painted, made all models out of chaplain models, looks awesome! Also have two more models unpainted I planed to use for the DC.
OOP lemartes, new in blister. Makes the dc ridiculous.
DC dread converted from metal venerable dread, with two talons.
Metal Furioso dread with converted frag cannon.
Metal furioso dread, stripped unpainted with talons.
About 15-20 assault marines without jump packs, converted with space wolf head to make them look like lunatics, each squad also has a flamer. Have extra jump packs to equip them.
9x vanguard vets, converted from black templar sword bretheren, and also have chaos raptor jump packs. 4 are stripped and might not have packs, ill have to look.
4x bikers, 2x meltaguns, powersword sarge, all made with ravenwing cloaks and the back part of ravenwing bikes.
5x sanguinary guard one with powerfist and one with banner.
This army is very customized and is one of a kind. With that many assault marines, vanguard vets, death company, furiosos, FNP and the best HQs in the game; people will have a hard time stopping it. Serious offers only please, it is seriously hard for me to get rid of this army since I put so much work/thought into it. Here is a random pic of my display board: [url]http://emperorscodex.blogspot.com/2011/ ... owcase.htm
Miscellaneous:
Land raider with forgeworld doors- $50
Storm raven bits, almost a full raven missing the top turret, front glass, feet, base and weapons (was going to use for ork battlewagon conversion, but could easily be finished with bits) $30
6x converted heavy flamer razorback turrets, made from bastion gun mounts and land raider redeemer flamecannon (could be used to make baal preds, or heavy flammer turrets)- $30
18x metal mounted nazghul, used for hexwraiths in vampire counts army- $10 each
30x warhammer fantasy ghouls built, unpainted- $60
more to come when I get home....
Hopefully this will make her happy, if not I may be selling more armies soon. Thanks Btown.

Yes, it is just a little more than I have right now.

I am trying to round up more, but I sold all my extra 40k stuff to get the 350.

Well I can do 350 minus the death company and death company dread, how does that sound?

While providing his address, he was also still trying to negotiate for the Death Co items. I don't see where you resolved that line of the trade so, even if only by a technicality, it looks to me as if he might not be reportable on this. I'm not 100%, though, so I'm going to think on it. Any other staff have a comment on this?

I believe by asking for a paypal address and giving his own shipping address, he was agreeing to the terms of the first deal. At the same time he was trying to work out some deal for the Death Company items, so perhaps that would be the beginning of a secondary deal?

Makes me wonder if he is married and the wife found out about how much he was going to spend, or if the other deals he mentioned in previous PMs didn't all go through and he didn't have the capital.

If you don't have your Location listed in your User Control Panel, why not take a second and update it? It will let your trading partners know where you are from the beginning.

I usually wouldnt care at all if he at least said something. Like hey no funds, wife might kill me etc. He just totally stopped talking. I dont know, If you decide this was uncalled for feel free to delete the thread.
