I really didn't want to post this, but I have not heard back from him in a week, and its been almost 2 months since we first started the trade. He was supposed to send a money order in exchange for my IG army, we sent around the same time as he had only a few references and I had none. Apparently the first round of Money orders he sent to me did not arrive, so he was asked to send another with tracking, and he agreed, but has not logged in since the 27th. I also now see that there is another BTR that has been recently posted regarding him. I am perfectly willing to have this closed and send a good reference if Whiskey comes back and resends me my money order.

Are you in the US or Canada? I think the lowest I could go would be 300$ + Half of the shipping costs, as there's quite a lot of models so shipping might be a bit expensive depending on where it's going.

Yeah, I did some rough shipping estimates, the last package I sent to the states cost me 30$ for a box half the size of the current IG box, so the shipping would probably be at least 40$. Would you be able to do something like 320$ for everything, shipping included?

Just checking in, did you get a chance to talk it over with your wife? I have had a few other offers since we talked, but mostly people just looking to buy a couple of models, so I would prefer to sell it as a lot still if you are still interested.
Cheers.

Ah, understandable, I just hadn't heard back from you in a few days so I was curious.
Basically i'm looking to have everything packed up and shipped out by this weekend at the latest, so if you are able to paypal the money to me, or maybe a half beforehand, half upon arrival, by this weekend, that would be perfect. If you don't think you can get the money together by then or don't want the army anymore please let me know, as i'll probably just be throwing it up on ebay, since I have not gotten any other decent responses here other then people wanting to split up the lot.
Thanks!

If you want, I cod send you a money order for $200 tomorrow, and the rest in a few days. I don't use PayPal, but you can see from my feedback that I use money orders a lot lol

Yeah, that should work for me actually. If you send it out today/tomorrow it should arrive by next week or early the week after I think. Usually I would like to wait till the money comes first before I ship, but since your payment also comes through the mail that might be awhile for you to wait, so I can ship it our beforehand if that's what you want. I'll also try and get some quick pictures taken before I ship them out so you can see what your getting beforehand, I'm also including a bunch of bits cases which have all the various IG bits organized and separated already.
You can make out the money order to <snip>
My postal info is..

That works for me. If you want, I can get a money order for the whole thing and send it Monday, or just split it up. My address is:

Glad you're so easy/pleasant to work with lol. And don't worry - your minis will have a loving home here with my son and I . If you send them Saturday they should get here Tuesday, which would be the best day as I have off all day. And day works, but I live next to Allegheny college, and the kids all moved back in. I never had a package come up lost before, but I always tell people to try and have things come on days I'll be home JUST IN CASE. If you can't get it to come Tuesday, just let me know and I'll see if my in-laws will be around.

Splitting it up actually works a bit better for me.
Yeah, I'll have it all packed up and shipped out this weekend, and i'll ask the postal office how long it should take, and if it comes with tracking, as it's quite a large box and they usually require some sort of of tracking/insurance.
I've also thrown in some other non-gw models I was using for Stormtroopers. I can't remember which model line they come from, but they where about the right size and I thought they looked kinda cool. I hope you and your son enjoy everything! Thanks for an easy and pleasant sale!

Hey Shawn, sorry, no IG Codex, I did throw in an old Catachan one though, although it's probably not of very much use now =P
I can't remember what all the vehicles had, but I'm pretty sure it's something like..
Leman Russ Demolisher, Lascannon Front, Open Sides
Leman Russ, Lascannon Front
Leman Russ, Open front
Everything is all packed up now and my roommate is dropping it off at the post office in a few hours. I'll let you know the approximate shipping time later tonight.

Yeah it did. Our house was robbed the other night though so I haven't had the time or energy to look at it. I've had to back out of a lot of trades as the stuff I was trading got jacked. I'll check it out tomorrow probably though.

Thanks, i'll let you know if one arrives later this week. I found regular mail in Canada usually takes about 5 business days, and letters from the States usually take about double that, but over 3 weeks is odd.

Did you get a chance to take a look at the shipping receipt? I would say if nothing shows up this week it might be a good idea to cancel both of them and maybe resend another? This is the first time I have dealt with International MO's before though so i'm not 100% sure on how cancelling them works.
Hope everything is doing better for you and your son since the break in!

Since I just dealt with standard mail there's no tracking. I'm looking for the reciept in case I need to cancel, but I might be screwed. I'm betting it was in my small wallet which got taken in the break in. I'm hoping not, but if so I'll have to chalk it up as a (big) loss and get the money to send another

Hey, no MO's came in this week, and since its been almost over a month I doubt it's going to be showing up. Let me know when you can get the replacement sent out, maybe with tracking to make sure it get's here this time? I'm actually really surprised it didn't show up last week, this is the first time I have ever had mail that has failed to show up.
