Sorry mate. I went through it and threw it all into a new package before \rushing off to GenCon. I wish I had realized you'd be there. I'll get you the bits and cards in the am.

Ok did a recount of missing parts, cards.

Eclipsante Card
6 Zerien Cards

2 Master of Carnages & Cards
Don't know what comes in the Vile-Tis box so might be some parts from that as well. No idea.

Still have yet to recieve the missing figures. No information on if he has sent them or not.

Almost has been a month since the payment. Will contact Paypal the 2nd time on the 24th and they said they will handle the situation whatever that may be.

The ZIren cards may be in French. I'll go through tomorrow. I may have mistaken the Carnasseurs for Maitres de Carnage. In the light of day I can check it out.

That's the last communication from Ranz. Before that he just responded on the forums here. Very disillusioned from using Btown from dealing with this...

Well, keep posting anything he sends you here. And let us know here what's going on. In the mean time, he is still corresponding with you, so that's good. We'll just keep on him until he gets it right.

We are all pulling for you buddy.

My Assistant is off to run errands, one of which is to deliver the package to the post office. When the package arrives, if Necroboy is not delighted, I invite him to return the lot and I'll refund his money plus shipping and so on.

I have a little too much going on to be focused on everything it seems. I lost Necroboys stuff in the confusion and never mailed it until a friend from this forum who is on one I mod gave me the heads up. In my haste to get to GenCon I mailed an incomplete order and this was all made worse by the fact that I went on a family vacation right after GenCon.

Hopefully this will make everything right and I'll be upgraded from "potential bad trader" to "sloppy trader."

YOur stuff and more will be in your hot little hands soon enough. You know this offended and high and mighty bullshit is getting old. I only offered the crap to you because it seemed easier than eBay and you hemmed and hawed and jerked me around with tedious question after question and finally begged me to sell you the stuff after I lost interest in the transaction.

It was my fault that it went out late and in my haste in and around my two vacations, I *edit* up the order and I've apologized and promised to make it right but we are talking about goddamned toy soldiers and you are getting on my nerves. You'll get your devourers, plus the "useless" stuff
I sent you and a whole lot more but I will be posting about all of the pre-trade annoying bullshit you put me through as well. Or maybe I won't as it is about toy soldiers that grown men covet afterall.

I'll send you a tracking number and you can post it and we'll al hold our collective breaths while hitting refreash all day and marking its progress.
I'm no thief or crook, just a lawyer who is not careful enough with his organization. The stuff you received already is well worth twice what you paid and I could simply say "Take me to court" and we'd both be laughed out for fighting aout children's toys.

I hope it makes you happy and we can put this travesty/tragedy/outrage behind us.

Here you go mate:

0305 2710 0000 2676 9543

I made a few mistakes in this deal and it's costing me 3 or 4 to one. I retraded a collection that I didn't know much about and you saw how mucked up that got. In the box coming ot you is the entire collection of Devourers. Those I traded fro and those I bought afterward. This should make you quite happy despite the deviations from that which I thought I had and offered. If not, return all of the Devourers and cards and I'll give you 110 bucks. Sound fair?

I also want to say that I am sorry for getting pissy. It all started due to my carelessness and though I think some people got a bit carried away with this "crisis", I'm to blame and not you.

Take care,

Scott

And finally done & done.

Didn't get the Two Masters of Carnage in the post but he made up for it by tossing in other models.

I'll be giving him a neutral feedback.

Thanks for all the help guys!

Yeah, I am having some problems contacting this guy as well. I should have read this post first, but of course, I didn't... I have been trying to get ahold of him for about 4 days now. I'll give him the weekend and then I'll post all of my information here. This was a trade for not a lot of items, but still enough to make me unhappy. I know my items were delivered to him on Tuesday, I don't know where the items he promised me are though.

I also have a trade with this guy and have gotten no response. I also did not see this post before I agreed to the trade. But unlike BuddyLee, this trade was for quite a bit of stuff. I'll give him till the end of the weekend and post my info as well.

Hey there Marcos,

I was waiting for your stuff to arrive since you had a zero rating. I didn't find it on me porch until you emailed me. I live in the sticks so they leave my packages on the side porch.

Fear not!

iambuddylee · Post by **iambuddylee** » Wed Sep 20, 2006 1:27 pm

I'm still waiting for my package. I was told it was sent about a week ago, but so far nothing has turned up and no response.

MancoTheGr8 · Post by **MancoTheGr8** » Fri Oct 27, 2006 6:22 am

OK, finally got my stuff for a trade that was started in early September from Brother Ranz. It was missing cards, figures and parts. After all the trouble that I had to go through, I'm quiting while I'm ahead. At least I got a majority of the trade. He added some extras that were not a part of the deal to make up for things but its stuff I don't need. Just a FYI for all you traders out there.

I find it funny with all the BS that has happened, this guy still does not have a single negative reference.

Go figure....
