Possible Bad Trader - Brother Ranz

Post by Necroboy »

Starting a thread for Brother Ranz. Possible Bad Trader. I sent him 87$ dollars via Paypal for product and ever since I send the money I have heard nothing from him. I have sent him daily PMs here, and have emailed him at his hotmail account. I activated the Paypal bad trade alert and am waiting until Wed night until I step it up so they resolve the issue themselves....

Paid the 28th of Sept. No word since then.

HEre's what I have:
Two Masters of Carnage
Dev Card pack
Zieren (On a great base!)
The boxed unit of Viletis
2 Voracious Warriors
2 Huntsmen
1 Eclipsante
Basra
Tyrant

10 bucks a wolf or 120 for the lot of it as long as you're in the US.

I have no pics but can assure you that 82 bucks would be a huge bargain.

Love living in Missorui.

Do you still have the Devourers? I'd like to grab them from you. When is the earliest you can ship them?

How about paint? They have any paint on them at all? Damage to them? (Just asking because someone is trying to sell me 15 damage models and I'm getting paranoid now) After an anwser on that question I'm done asking and up with the buying...

I was in negotiations with Ranz over some Man O' War stuff, and he dropped off the face of the earth in the middle. I did a little checking around, and figured it was for the best... Good luck getting your stuff!

If I owe you a reference, please let me know. I accidentally deleted my PMs.

You can PM him on the Privateer Press forums, he's an infrequent visitor there as well.

I've had multiple trades with him, and all went off without a hitch. Hopefully he's just hit a rough spot, and not turned to the Darkside or Trading.

Good luck getting your stuff.

Hey there!

Slappy belongs to a forum I moderate and told me something was up. I am furiously painting and getting ready for GenCon and thought all of my bartertown business was closed at least until I get back and want to trade again. I just sold 1000 bucks worth of stuff on ebay for my trip and then Slappy said "Ranz, you wanker! People are asking about you on Bartertown."

The Devourers should have gone out last week. I'll check at the office tomorrow for a tracking number. I checked in my "junk" box and fou nd your email. Sorry for not checking sooner. I'll respond in the AM after I get the Number.

As for the Man o War almost trade, I am too lazy to sort through my crap to find it. I will someday and post it here.

Got the package in although there are some problems with it. Here is the list that was supposed to arrive:

Two Masters of Carnage
Dev Card pack
Zieren (On a great base!)
The boxed unit of Viletis
2 Voracious Warriors
2 Huntsmen
1 Eclipsante
Basra
Tyrant

I didn't get the Dev Card Pack, a single master of carnage with missing arms - only one Eclipsante card out of 2. No master of carnage cards at all. 3 out of the 5 cards in the Vile-Tis box set...

Any suggestions?

He did add another two minis in the box through. A Kelt giant and a Lion wizard. Both I have no need for. At this point I'm just getting disillusioned with me being happy with this trade.

Shame after a great week playing in the Rackham Nationals at Gencon.
