BTR - RxGhost - Resolved.

Post by Tooze »

1) Introduction:

I initially entered into talks with RxGhost to trade some Privateer Press Khador and Retribution miniatures for his collection of Tomb Kings on May 18th. As you can read below, we went back and forth haggling a bit until we reached a mutually agreed upon deal. I shipped out my half of the trade on June 1st with USPS, tracking number is 03103490000223260162. The tracking information shows that the package was delivered on the 3rd. On the 8th I was able to reach him through another member on this site, Leth, and received a message from him asking for my return address. Since that last message I have not heard a thing from him. His last online time as of today was June 8th. I sent multiple messages to him since, and even tried going through his friend Leth again, but its been another week with no response. I checked over his references and realized I should have been weary from the start, but live and learn.

2) Proof: Messages from RxGhost are in Red with messages I sent in Blue.

I've got a tomb king army and a few boxes of unopened stuff, is there anything in particular you're looking for?

I'd be interested in:
Winterguard Mortar Crew
Assault Kommandos Blister x2
Assault Kommando Flame Thrower
Man Hunter Variant
Man O War Kovnik
Harbringer
2010 High Reclaimer
Attendant Priest x1
Vassal of Menoth

The following items are still available. I've set them aside at the moment for you. What sort of boxes do you have new/unopened? I'm starting fresh so I need just about anything Tomb Kings related except for the book.

Assault Kommandos Blister x2
Assault Kommando Flame Thrower
2010 High Reclaimer
Attendant Priest x1
Vassal of Menoth
Scourge of Heresy Upgrade kit
Choir of Menoth blister


Sent: Wed May 18, 2011 9:17 pm

Quick question: does the choir blister have the unit leader in it?

I've got (assembled and unpainted)

1 Tomb King on Foot
1 Tomb King on Chariot
1 Liche Priest on Skeleton Steed
1 Liche Priest on Foot
12 Skeleton Heavy Cavalry
6 Skeleton Horsemen w/Bows
20 Skeleton Warriors w/Command
10 Skeleton Bowmen
5 Tomb King Chariots
1 Casket of Souls

and one box, unopened Tomb King Skeleton Warriors. I've also got the whole thing in foam and a Sabol Army Transport.

As you can see, this was the core of the army. I expected to get some of the more exotic and varied specials and rares further down the road but I just never really got off the ground with these guys...I've been painting too much of my museum lizardmen.

Scourge of Heresy Upgrade kit
Choir of Menoth blister

I know a few of those were listed as pending, but I thought I'd put my name down for them anyways.[/color]

Sent: Wed May 18, 2011 9:48 pm
by Tooze

Choir blister is just the two boys themselves. Are any of the tomb king horsemen metal? I just started so I don't really have any idea about their minis... I'd be interested in the lot of the army if you'd be willing to part with it. I've got the item you were interested in and could supplement that with additional models or cash as needed.


Sent: Wed May 18, 2011 10:32 pm
by RxGhost

Yeah, these are all the current edition horsemen so they're plastic as well.

At second glance, it does look like I painted some of the guys, a few characters and about half the heavy horsemen. They look good, but I wouldn't want anything extra for the paint job in the trade.

So I counted up everything retail to retail, and it was:

1 Tomb King on Foot
1 Tomb King on Chariot
1 Liche Priest on Skeleton Steed
1 Liche Priest on Foot
12 Skeleton Heavy Cavalry
6 Skeleton Horsemen w/Bows
20 Skeleton Warriors w/Command
10 Skeleton Bowmen
5 Tomb King Chariots
1 Casket of Souls
1 Skeleton Warrior Regiment

...and is about 325 USD.

2 Assault Kommandos Blister
1 Assault Kommando Flame Thrower
1 2010 High Reclaimer
1 Attendant Priest
1 Vassal of Menoth
1 Scourge of Heresy Upgrade kit
1 Choir of Menoth blister
1 Eseverius
1 Myrmidon Kit
1 Stormfall Archers

...which was about 170 USD. If you want to buy the rest, I'll sell them to you for 50% off retail which is like, 80 bucks.

I figured that you're looking to get rid of all the stuff on your list, and I have a friend who plays Retribution so I can swap some figs with him, and I'd love to paint the eSeverius even if I don't plan on using him...that model is so sweet.

If you want the case and foam, I can throw that in for another 50 bucks. No joke, the case is incredible, it's this one: http://www.saboldesigns.net/armytransport.html and I already cut the foam for the figures I have, plus the layers I hadn't even gotten to yet.


Sent: Wed May 18, 2011 10:41 pm
by Tooze

Well I do have some built Khador and Retribution stuff if you'd be interested to help maybe bring that 80.00 down on my end.
I've got a full unit of Halbridiers, Mage Hunter Unit, A Scyrir solo, Garyth, Skarathessian (or however you spell it), Discordia, a Hydra, and a Chimera. I've got a bunch of Khador stuff too, couple extra Jacks if youd be interested. I think Torch, 2 devastators, maybe a demolisher.... A unit of grey lords, widow makers, and kayazy...

These are all built, I think maybe two of the Khador Jacks are primed. I didnt list them yet because all the other items were new.... anything there your interested in?


Sent: Wed May 18, 2011 10:52 pm
by RxGhost

Yeah, give me a list of all the Khador stuff you'd be willing to trade. I'd definitely be interested in some of those.

Is the torch built or is it just the conversion kit?


Sent: Wed May 18, 2011 11:14 pm
by Tooze

Torch is built. I can give you a better idea of what the Khador stuff is on Friday... I've got to root through my bag and see what I've got.


Sent: Wed May 18, 2011 11:23 pm

Sounds good, I'll just keep this stuff set aside for you until I hear back from ya.


Sent: Sat May 21, 2011 9:42 am
by Tooze

Ok I've got a Torch built, two Devastators and a destroyer left. Not much is left of my Khador army Jack wise....

I've got some Kayazy too, two full units because I was planning on running Zerkova's Theme list.

Throw in the four jacks and you've got a deal.


Sent: Tue May 24, 2011 10:54 am
by Tooze

Ran into a bit of problem. Looks like I sold the Mrymidon kit and the Attendant priest to someone and in the confusion of all the emails mislabled the sale.

I could offer you another Assault Kommando flamethrower blister in place of the attendant priest and I have an assembled Hydra or Discordia if that would take the place of the Myrmidon kit. Otherwise, I can pay the difference. Let me know what you'd like to do. Everything else is boxed and ready to go!


Sent: Thu May 26, 2011 12:00 pm

Sure, that's fine. The Kommando an either of those jacks are okay with me.

I sent multiple messages to him since, and even tried going through his friend Leth again, but its been another week with no response.
I'm not trying to put any responsibility on Leth. Just looking for clarification.
What happened with Leth the second time? Was he unsuccessful, or did you not have any luck getting a response from let that time?

Also, there are FBI and USPS links in IronHide's signature line that you should use.

Yep I don't like to respond until I have talked to him about it, message was sent this morning.

He got the package back with a bad address from the post office, he is going to check it against the address he got and deal with it beyond then

My prices/trades are just estimates, I do not know the going rate. If you want to know sooner, send me a offer.

Thanks Leth for getting in touch with him. My main issue with RxGhost is the lack of communication on his part. I haven't heard a word from him. I've provided my phone number, an alternate email address, and sent numerous PMs here on bartertown. If he did send the package and got it back with a bad address label from the post office, why not contact me to verify the address? If he is going to send it out again I really wish he would notify me at the very least.... and extend me the same courtesy and get delivery confirmation from the package.

If you'd like to avoid this please give me a call. I've PM'd you my number numerous times. If I don't hear from you by this time tomorrow I will proceed with the suit.
