you are lucky, i traded a 25th blowtorch with some guy in the U.S. had to buy the figure & he wasnt cheap, the guy in the U.S. sent me a shipwreck & sent it by surface mail! 2 months later i still dont have it + no longer need it!
Shipwrecks cost a pretty penny now too. Must be the parrot :)

My first order from them arrived in 16 days so I thought it would be ok to use them again. I'm not rubbishing his site this is here as a warning in case others do order from it and wonder what's going on. I didn't know that my order would be untraceable that would have put me off doing the first order if I had known.

Got 3 Red ninja's.
I might have a Cobra Storm Shadow left (a french guy bought my last one on ebay but still hasn't paid. I'll give him a few more days.)

If he does buy it I've got stock coming in 3 weeks (stormie amongst them). Any good?
Are they 100% complete if they are I'm interested.

It wouldn't surprise me if your figures are stuck in the postal strike, If they came from the states they will come to mainland uk before going over to the Isle of Man.
There is always a backlog caused when posties go on strike and they don't always send the backlog out first.
Just don't give up on the figs never arriving, I sent some commandos to Australia via airmail a few years back they never turned up after 3 weeks so I refunded buyer.
Another few weeks later (4 or 6) and the buyer let me know they had turned up and had some how gone by ship with an airmail sticker on!

He is in constant contact now on joecustoms which is good he said for me to let him know if they do arrive. They were apparently shipped out before the strike happened tintin as it got to 20 days before it occurred.

To be fair Ironblood did you check this out before you ordered? I assume that any shipping I pay for is untraceable unless it says otherwise, esp coming from overseas... If it said "traceable overseas shipping" or something and you were deliberately mislead then thats fair enough...

The guy did something he didnt have to do and offered a refund or replacement even though its only three weeks since the order was placed? Seems he should be getting some praise unless ive got things very wrong...
