My order, placed on 13 May, arrived today. Three of the four UXB tokens had damage to the circular ring around the tail fins; the bits were in the bag, so I assume they had broken in transit, but IMO they were fixable and I said so, but told him about it as it was a product weakness I thought he should know about. Near-instant response: a thank you for informing him, four new markers on their way, and he's going to look at strengthening that part of the model. Now that's service!

Re: What are people buying?
Woke up this morning to find that my Paypal account was in credit. Obviously I have taken steps to address this issue.
Last week I looked at a zombie game on Ebay, looked, not watched, bid on or enquired about, just looked at. Yesterday I received an email telling me that the seller had reduced it from £20 to £18. I took another look and then decided to see what else the seller had. It turns out that he still had the same game at £20 or another copy on a buy it now of £16.20. Postage on all of them was £3.10 so I bought the cheapest.

Yes, that's them.

Just commissioned him to make me some wattle fencing. Figured I could buy from Renedra, but this way it gives him incentive to make some (and he’ll sell plenty) and I’d rather give him money than Renedra (not that I don’t like Renedra), I’d rather just support a small business like hisBaronVonWreckedoften wrote: ↑Fri May 15, 2020 12:54 pmMy order, placed on 13 May, arrived today.
