The first PM I sent was on 12/21. The last I sent was on 1/20.

As soon as I file this, I'm PMing him that our deal is canceled and am including a link to the thread.

I've got some stuff that you listed as wants.
There are a couple things here you didn't list. I've only included them in case you forgot to list them (since you had a pretty extensive list), or I overlooked them (extensive list again LOL) and because I'll give a REALLY good deal on them as a lot.
Here you go:
I've got the following

MSRP $20 Sanguinor
MSRP $20 Astorath
MSRP $33 Death Company (x2)
MSRP $33 Sanguinary Guard (x3) Missing 1 head per set.

MSRP on the lot is $205.
I'll let it all go for $134 plus shipping.
That is just barely under 35% off (35% off is $133.25)
If you only want to "pick & choose" what you want, I'l sell Sanguinor or Astorath at $14 each & the boxed sets at $24 each. Plus shipping, of course.

Also, I'd be willing to accept Hellions towards trade, but only at retail to retail. I don't think it's fair to give you in your favor because you have to pay to ship, since I have to pay to ship, too. Hope that makes sense.

If you're interested in Hellions & cash for anything I have, LMK. We can crunch numbers.

These offers are only valid through Sunday. If I don't hear from you by Sunday, I'll presume you aren't interested and take them off the table.

Thanks.

Eric

Well after managing some success on my first post here in trying to offload some DE stuff, well..lol my birthday came around and my buddies got me a bunch of DE stuff, seems I forgot to tell them I'd traded mine off. So, I've got some more DE stuff that I'd like to unload, it's all new edition, NiB. I am looking to get better than retail for retail,as withs hipping I'm losing money.

Astorath and Sanguinor are MIB, unopened.
1 Box of Death Co is unopened
1 Box of Death Co was opened to look at, but otherwise untouched. I even managed not to drool on anything. LOL
The 3 Sang. Guard boxes are on sprue with the exception of the missing heads (it's one of the bare heads, anyway)
I bought them to do a BA army, but decided against it. I already have 2 Power Armored armies, and have been interested in DE for a long time. So, when I found out they were coming in Nov., I stopped buying BA stuff. I just recently decided to get rid of it.

So, retail on the BA stuff is $205.
Retail on the Hellions is $24.75
That leaves a difference of $180.25
At 65% of retail (35% off), that makes it $117.1625 (let's say $117 LOL)
The initial offer was for you to pay shipping. Since you'd have to ship something to me, I wouldn't feel right asking you to pay all of the shipping. So, just add $5 for shipping & I'll cover the rest. I will also provide a Delivery Confirmation number.
That makes a final total of $122 via PayPal and a box of Hellions. Let me know, if you want to buy insurance on it, and I'll get you a total with insurance included (If you choose insurance, we can insure it at $ purchase price, or retail. Your choice).

Keep in mind that the above presumes that you're in the US.
If you're international, I may want you to pay more towards shipping, because shipping would eat HUGELY into the money I'm receiving (which, at 35% off, is a great discount).
Also, considering our ref score differences, I'd want you to ship first (per my sig line).

Please, let me know how all of this looks to you.
If it's good, and you get the cash to me via PayPal by 9 pm tonight, I will pack the models tonight and ship everything tomorrow morning, provided you agree to ship the Hellions before 12/31.

Let me know?

Thanks.

Not a deal breaker. I just operate on the presumption that everyone uses PayPal (LOL) and, if I find someone who doesn't, I find another way around it. There are a number of Bartertowners who don't use PayPal, actually.

I don't really *like* to do money orders, but I will. I have *one* rule with them, though.
I will only accept them if they're (a) from the Post Office or (b) from US Bank.

I have actually had someone send me a fake m.o. before, and I almost got stuck with it (not through BTown, though). Fortunately, I worked in a bank branch at the time, at a notice had just come out from the FBI about that particular set of m.o.'s.

With the USPS m.o.'s, I can take them there and cash them. With the US Bank ones... Well, I know they're drawn on US Bank and, as I'm an employee and customer of US Bank, I can just go down to the branch attached to my building and cash them there. :)

If that works for you, then we're on. Just LMK what to expect. Once I have the cash & Hellions, I'll send the BA's on their way.

Thanks!

Use the m.o., please. It's safer for you. I'll have to go to the USPS to ship, anyway, so I don't mind. I'd rather you be protected.

That way, you don't have to worry about sending cash and what would happen if I received it, but claimed the box was opened and the contents were strewn about, and there was no cash in it. :shocked:
I might be shifty like that, you know! :twisted: :wink:

Yeah, man. As long as I have a date and we're in contact, that's absolutely fine. I don't need the money or models in a huge hurry, so the few extra days is fine.

Since you said you deleted the history, let me reiterate our trade, so we both have record of it again (more after the "quote"):

Is this from PMs? If so, I do not see any Time/Date stamps on the PMs and cannot ascertain a chronological order to the correspondence provided.

To summarize, you are missing the PM header information. You know, the "Subject", "Sent", and "From" lines.
