I hate posting these gosh darn things but I feels its important in case it shows a potential trend with a trader. I never got this guys real name or address, so who knows. Such a small dollar item trade as it is, its a shame that this is his first go at b-town.

I would make sure to ask if he is talking with anyone else about the items you are trading him for before wasting any time with him and I would also suggest requiring him to ship first at least until he proves he is reliable.

So that I am understanding correctly....... we came to an agreement on a trade, then after we agreed, you changed your mind and decided to cancel for another trade on a different website. As such I will be leaving a note in the deadbeat/backout forum here and adding you to my list. Best of luck with your other deal, and its a shame you didnt get off to a better start on b-town.

Hi Paul,

Sorry to mess you around, but, I'm going to have to respectfully bow out our deal. I have these advertised on Warseer and someone has offered me a better deal. I did inform them I'm working on something with someone else atm, but, they have offered me double models for the hunters. He had asked me previously about them, I just got your PM before his unfortunately.

Sorry to muck you around mate. I don't expect you to increase your offer either mate, I'm not one for playing people off.Quote mercerRe: Ultramarine Nid hunters

Mark,
That sounds good, its pretty standard proceedure that the individual with the lower rating ships first. I only ever ship second or simo with folks that have a number of trades above me. As soon as I get the models you send I will ship off the models I am trading to you. Feel free to check my refrences as I have had dozens of trades on here that all went smoothly. So you will send

1 x tyranid hunter throwing the grenade
1 x tyranid hunter with bionics.
Both are painted ultramarine blue and then washed

to
Paul Demboski

Upon receipt I will send

2 plastic space marines
to (address you provide)


Pleasure trading with you.Quote mercerRe: H: Imperial Guard/Marines/WM/Etc W: Marines/Nids/Tau

I have 1 x tyranid hunter throwing the grenade and 1 x tyranid hunter with bionics. Both are painted ultramarine blue and then washed. As they are metal models they can easily be stripped. Let me know if thats ok.

If it is then I will send them to you, I presume you mean you will send mine if I present a proof of postage?

Thanks

I have the tyranid hunter with bionics. I no longer need it as I'm changing my Ultramarines to Blood Angels. I also have another one as well, the one throwing the grenade. I would like to swap these for two normal plastic marines - you interested?

I was waiting for confirmation on this Paul tbh, so, IMO, no deal has been reached until I had confirmation the marines weren't aobr.

Apologies if any upset has been caused.

So, Mercer, are you saying that -as far as you're concerned- the deal's still on if gwaddict is up for it?
What about you, gwaddict? Yes? No?


Eric

absolutely I am still interested in the trade, and will give him another chance if he is still interested but it sounded like he had a done deal elsewhere. And yes they are regular marines new on sprue. Otherwise I would have mentioned that they were aobr. I try to be as clear as possible during trades so their is no confusion.

Paul

Apologies Paul for any confusion on my behalf.

Unfortunately I have stuck a deal with someone else and he has posted his stuff and I am sending his today. I don't wish to back out on him, even, for a better deal.

I do apologise for any inconveinence caused.

Good enough.
Looks like, for beter or worse, this one's resolved.


Eric
