Hate to tell you that petitioning to get a Bad Trade reference removed is a slim chance. Of the various things on Btown, it is one of the harder things to do.

Speaking personally, (and YES, I know I have a rating of Huge), I have 1 Bad Ref that I want removed, and 1 Neutral from a year ago. The Bad ref was a mistake by the user (clicked the wrong tab).. and even THEN removing it is on the back burner.

About the only way to mitigate the Negative is to follow thru on the trade, and get a Good reference that refers to the Bad one as resolved.

Pork has the right of it.
You can TRY to have Linrandir remove it but the general rule is that, once a ref is INTENTIONALLY left, it remains.

Do not assume that the package will get to the UK from the USA in that amount of time.

okay...that clears that up. Thank you.

i just received a package today from the UK. 4 days ladies and gents, 4 days. i was floored on how fast it made it here.

That's pretty good. Any idea what company and which service of theirs was used?

it has a big A at the top of the label.
and says Royal Mail below that. it was
mailed from Northhampton, UK.
hope that helps.

A= airmail..and royal mail is the normal post office...

Just to give everyone a update, alex did recieve the package but was charged saying it was merchandise. Idk, but i am waiting for the ogres right now.

The charges i had to pay where more than the shipping would be to send the orgres. I had to used the money i was going to use to post the ogres to pay for them and then some. I will post them as soon as i get money to spare amongst lifes other essentials.

FYI, for both of you:

When you are sending minis internationally, label them as "TOYS"!

General "Merchandise" will carry customs duty charges, because it looks commercial.

If you properly label them as "Toys", usually, there won't be any duty (they're not supposed to charge for toys).

if they're not NIB, you can lable them USEd toys.. because, they're not new.
now, if they're still in a sealed/wrapped box..just unwrap the package.. it's not new.. but still not used.

Skuttlespike, did you ever send him his portion of the trade?

or you could have had them sent back and told him to send them in a way that wouldn't have cost you so much. but either way you aut to get you're end of the deal to him. last time i checked mail fraud is a fellony.

Wow, I can't believe that this has gone on for 5 pages.
