I called at 11 and was second in line. Looks like Akaiyou bought everything

He as already out of a bunch of stuff. None of the new superheavies, no marine armor, all the necron stuff was gone, not much in terms of Tyranids, etc.

:"D I would start calling at 10:45 rofl

Update:

He showed proof of shipping to paypal, and they dropped the claim but I was allowed to escalate it once again. He still owes me three digits worth of money/product, and since he isnt getting more product in, I was hoping to just get a refund.

But he came forward and said that in order to get a refund the money cannot be in a claim, so I got paypal to drop it, and now hopefully he will come forward soon and partially refund me.

I will keep you all up to speed as things happen.

Good luck.

Tomorrow is a BIG day, as I am fully expecting to receive word of shipment on my remaining items.

We'll see.

UPDATE

Tuesday 2/17 - Received word that yes, my items have finally shipped. I should receive them by Friday.

I placed an order and finished paying it today just about $300 worth. Should be here by next week.

Got a bunch of stuff, I removed a bunch of ASoBR Orks from my order if those that didn't manage to call b4 me wanted some, you should try to call in and get them while they are still there.

It was about 90 orks.

I even got a tracking number this time, so hopefully this will bring everything to a satisfactory conclusion...

Good news. All of my dealings with them have been fairly positive. Hope he rebounds and comes back.

So do I, though I might be a bit gun shy at first...

Yeah, I think that an extra 10-15% discount on my dollies isn't worth the PITA that you guys seem to have been dealing with. I think I'll stick with Neil and my FLGS (assuming GT does indeed "come back").

Sooo - spoke to about 20 people who saw this thread already. I have another large lot of boxes going out in the morning for those of you that just ordered.

We still have about 60% of the inventory left, however each section/army has been skimmed over pretty good. There is a bunch of fantasy and 40k though. and i am now looking for eager buyer who would want to do something like "give me the rest of your tyranids!" sort of purchasing and wil accomidate the sale somehow by ading in paints or something like that. ( I realized we have a lot of p3 paints that I can not send back to get warehouse credit for....)

either way, you can strt calling around 9:30 am this friday morning - till about 3 pm.

as said before, try and try agian on the phone, and calling is way beter then sending in amn email, half the time, when I get to the email, all the stuff you wrote down sold 5 minutes prior!

to detail some of the things I can remember that looked good:

Strong ammount of

Eldar
Chaos
Tau
Nids
Orks
Deamons

Dwarfs
Chaos
wood Elves
dark elves

Terrain kits
accessories - templates
tools, paints, glues.

talk to you soon!

Anybody have GT's email address?

You could always click on his profile and then the button that says "e-mail"

Yeah, tried that and Outlook starts trying to install on my computer. It wasn't a mailto: so I wasn't going to wade through a page of code to try and find it. I have it now, so thanks.

When I hover over the email button I get gtgamersunion@gmail.com.

In Firefox, goto TOOLS -> Options -> Applications. Then look for mailto, then select whatever mail method you use.. Gmail, yahoo, MSN, etc.

Um, that was awesome! Thanks!

AND... FINALLY...

I received MOST of the miniatures owed me today.

I'm still missing around $25 worth of blisters, but at this point, I'm going to say "close enough" and consider myself fortunate.

Good luck to GORILLA TACTICS in getting through this tough spot and good luck to all of his customers in either getting their miniatures or recovering their money!

That's fantastic.

Considering how open they've been in what is clearly a tough time for them, I'm slightly more likely to use Gorilla Tactics in future if they can recover from this.

Actually, me too.

Maybe.

And a quick correction - I'm only missing about $16 worth of miniatures.

So, IF they can return AND establish a pretty good track record upon said return... Maybe!

Well its been a week since I was told I was getting a refund after he tried to get me to take my missing $250 in credit in some company I never heard of.

I just emailed him again to call me in the morning, hopefully I can finally get this straightened out tomorrow morning. This has been about a 2 month ordeal.

Lets hope my bad feeling is wrong and I get my refund tomorrow. If I do I will be sure to post the good word.

I dont always agree with JHDD, but from now on I am going to trust his gut about buying online, not mine.

Well, you can always count on the WARSTORE.

Sure, 20% is not as nice as 35%, but reliability AND stability just might be worth that extra 15%...

Anyway, good luck, and I hope it turns out OK for you.

Thought I'd just post back guys. It seems like everyone has a bit of good news, and uh... I just thought I'd throw in an "I told ya so" to the people assuming he was going to disappear forever with our money. Anyway, I got a tracking number a few days ago, and the package status says its been delivered, but my college is weird, and the mail room isn't open for another 20 minutes, so that's how much longer I'll have to go without it. Also, to the person who said that they were out of SM armor. THAT'S MY FAULT! MWAHAHAHAHA!

I'm glad to see you guys are getting your stuff, especially that, this time, things turned out right for everyone.

Soooo, if I missed you in recent days.

I am actually making an unscheduled visit back to the store.

Last monday's president day was a suprise "oh yeah, the post office is closed!" to me so all my plans got jacked up and im still in possesion of a couple orders, because I actually had no room left to take anymore!

Ill be available on sunday

11am - 6pm at this number

734-418-2817
(you may need to call 2-3 times before you can get through!)

today is saturday, and I am NOT available, as I have to do 2 very important things today that were just made aware to me yesterday by my doctor... love the way medical systems work.

Talk to everybody on sunday!

Brandon,

I dont know what "bad feelings" you could possibly be having

Sorry I removed all personal decision making process from your life when it comes to business transactions, but im sure JHDD's guidence will be better then nothing, because, hey- If you dont have a forum of peers to make up your mind for you, then what do you have?

However I have made life VERY good for 3 painters and you were the 4th piece of the puzzle - (check your voicemail maybe?)

If you dont know what im talking about, then email me so i can get you taken care of ASAP.

As one guy put it - quoting from his email.

" Thanks man, this is the best thing ever, and now I know that it is possible to endure through some hard times and come out even better then ever in the end "

and I assume that you do have your cash refund because I show them on my account records as processed.

but im not sure if this just got off topic.... see post above and contact me if something still does not seem complete on your end.

I just want my money back and that is what I have been trying to do for a while now. I've even offered to take it all in other product but I havent heard from you.

Please respond to my emails!

Edit: I live by my phone, I run a business too. You have left no voicemails and have not called me.

If you have and it just hasnt gone through then try calling on a cell phone and not skype.

Thought about it long and hard, then put in an order. Frankly, I usu. only pick up stuff from my FLGS with my wife being a cornerstone of Warstore's business. However, I felt motivated by some of the bad press in this thread to throw my cash in the ring and report on what happens. I've had my bell rung in life a few times, and I have no desire to turn my back on someone when they need a hand. Weird, but that's abotu the only reason that I put in the order. That, and I wanted the models . Anyway, after a few emails back and forth about product and price, finally got some satphone time and put in the order. was congenial, there when he said he was going to be (and then some), took my order and that was that.

Hope it turns out well for him.

Hope I get my stuff, too. However, it will be a month before I get home. My Gaming Enabling spouse will be ripping open the packaging and giving me a count when it gets to the Hizzy, however. I'll let Dakka know.

I dont understand, why are people still sending this guy money with stories like mine, of getting two months of runaround and lies before getting their refund, floating around?

I still haven't received shipping confirmation/tracking info on the remaining portion of my last order. Last contact with GTGU was an email that they would ship last wednesday. Nothing since.

Probably because your horror story is the odd-ball. Not everyone is getting terrible stories of "HE TOOK MY MONEY!!!". I had a little problem getting in contact with him when I wanted to, but all in all, it was a fairly simple transaction, and I got a lot of stuff at a great price. I'm still waiting for two more models to show up, but I'm not worried about them, as Angelos still responds to his e-mails and phone calls.
