BTR - whitekong/Dave Hoskins

[jahiv]

Sorry to have to do this, but my patience has it's limits. I was involved with a trade with whitekong, aka Dave Hoskins. Our communication started towards the end of December when we agreed to trade several Skorne models for a full unit of kriel warriors with ua and 3 cabers. My side of the trade was sent Jan. 3rd and was confirmed received Jan. 8th. He said he would ship his end out within a few days. That was the last I heard from him. I waited almost a full month to send a follow up message to him, Feb. 6th. When that failed to get me a reply, I tracked his user name down on the Privateer Press forums and sent him a message there, as well as sending a message to someone from his local playgroup -- this message is pasted at the very end of this post. This person kindly contacted whitekong for me and informed me that whitekong was without internet and that he would "send the models Friday." This was four weeks ago and I have neither received the models nor any communication from whitekong.

Hey I would trade you a full unit of kriel warriors plus ua and 3 cabers for your plastic battle box,(2 cyclops glad and plastic pmorg), the cannoneer, paingivers and razorworm.

Let me know if you are interested, thanks.

Dave

I'm definitely interested. I have to warn you that the paingivers aren't in the best shape--I believe a couple olf their whips have snapped off, and they probably need to be stripped--but I'd be willing to add something else into the mix to make up for it.

Well honestly the only other thing you have that I might want is the acurii, I could go for the plasic battle box and the acurii for the trolls. What do you think?

Dave

That would definitely work for me.

Sounds good, here is my address.

Dave Hoskins
1530 s 6th st.
Rockford, Il. 61104

Just give me a heads up when they ship, thanks.

Dave

Hey man, figs arrived in good shape. One of the cyclops was missing his shoulder pad, but not a big deal. Probably going to take me a few day to ship, hope thats okay. Life is pretty hectic right now around here. 3 people working and only one car, make life a little tricky...

Thanks for the trade,

Dave

Hey, just checking in. Haven't heard back in a while.

Messages from the privateer press forums:

Sorry to be a bother, but I'm looking to get a hold of whitekong, and I noticed you're his friend and from the same town so I assumed you might know him irl. We had a trade on bartertown and he vanished about a month ago. I wanted to try an alternate channel to try to find out what might have happened before I posted a bad trader report, especially since he's been around a while. If you could just pass along the message that would be super helpful.

Again, sorry to bother you.

James Hanrahan

Sent him a text and he says his internet is down but he will be shipping your things friday.
Hope that helps.

Scott

I completely understand if he has real life issues causing delays but it's been three months since he has received my end of the trade and I feel that I have been more than forgiving.

I forgot to mention: I have filed a mail fraud report with the USPS.
