Woo! First of two orders just got refunded through Paypal dispute, still with zero feedback from seller, so I'm sticking with the "everybody working there died" theory.

A whole lotta FW resin.
I've had the shopping list drawn up for some time, I've got the $, & FW listed all but 1 piece as being in-stock.
So, with the coming price increases, there wasn't really any reason to keep delaying it. Unless I wanted to spend more for no reason....

Sounds like the store must be in really bad shape for them to not even react to a PP dispute. A shame, but at least you've got your money back from them

I made my two orders from them a month apart and from the order numbers it's clear they took 300 other orders in between... if they're all ending up like this it's a gakshow of epic proportions. And from their FB wall it seems this was like a mom and pop brick&mortar store that used to hold events and everything.

I guess they could have hit the problem that not enough on-foot sales and events sapped them of income. Throw in rising shipping and a few delivery delays and they've like as not run out of operating money and rely on new orders to pay for previous orders. Which often is a slow, painful, drawn out death for any firm unless they can source an investment, a massive sales spike or otherwise overcome the deficit. Of course along the way refunds, chargebacks and such will all make it worse - as will lack of transparency and communication.

Ordered me a new box of Shadow Warriors of Nargarythe. Was on special at Might Ape. Wanna convert one to look a bit more like my TTRPG character in my cousin's campaign and one to proxy an assassin in Warcry Warband. They're still very cool models in my eyes!

"The best way to lie is to tell the truth." Attelus Kaltos.
My story! Secret War
After his organisation is hired to hunt down an influential gang leader on the Hive world, Omnartus. Attelus Kaltos is embroiled deeper into the complex world of the Assassin. This is the job which will change him, for better or for worse. Forevermore. Chapter 1.
The Angaran Chronicles: Hamar Noir. After coming back from a dangerous mission which left his friend and partner, the werewolf: Emilia in a coma. Anargrin is sent on another mission: to hunt down a rogue vampire. A rogue vampire with no consistent modus operandi and who is exceedingly good at hiding its tracks. So much so even the veteran Anargrin is forced into desperate speculation. But worst of all: drive him into desperate measures. Measures which drives Anargrin to wonder; does the ends, justify the means?

Ordered 2 lots of the MtO Easterlings, and had them already arrive yesterday (a nice surprise for sure). Today, since I had a bit of extra money kicking around and I was already at my FLGS to pick up a couple of paints, I decided to grab a box of Stormdrake Guard for my Stormcast Eternals army.
Edit: I guess yesterday is 2 days ago and today is yesterday since it's well past midnight locally. Don't post when you're about to pass out from fatigue, kids.

A universal carrier* from Bolt Action.
I'm going to convert it to be a truck for a squad of Gretchin.
* I was looking for a BA German 1/2track for the grots. But the only one the shop had was in a starter set - of wich i wanted nothing else from. So rather than waste a lot of $....
They'll look cool enough mounted in a Universal Carrier.

I stupidly ordered Hero Forge minis of Attelus Kaltos and Karmen Kons as well as characters from my Angaran Chronicles stories for my TT Skirmish game of Jelcine and Emilia (both human and werewolf forms) Then I went and pre-ordered the illustrated new version of Eisenhorn: Xenos. Maaan been spending way too much money lol
