DISCLAIMER:

I do not like too much to share sensitive data or even just remotely connected info,i will not share my nation or exact shipping infomation, only the numbers of days. You just need to know that the postal service in my country sucks and is extremely slow, so the slowness of the shipment falls in my standars china shippings times.

ORDER PROCESS:

One sunday lurking for 1-2 imperial bombard on google/yoyhammer/miniswap/dozen of different facebook trading group i ended on ebay ,from smatphone, i discover vinson68, i looked on yoyhammer for some review and seems to me good quality stuff. I have already cheked pillpitt,alpharius,ccon,z,miranda,and [ALL DATA REDACTED] aka hidden ones catalogues, finding only Z have it but my order from him werent good, and miranda one is as expensive as FW,so dont worth, so i wanted to give vinson a try.

FUN FUCT.I discover i cant find his shop on ebay using a PC (pretty weird,ebay smartphone version ignores the restricted countries where the seller does not ship,it was US only announcement).

So i send him a PM asking how could i buy something if i am in europe,24h later i receive a responce telling me to go on wartablegames. As you can see i am a long time lurker for an imperial bombard, the price seems good,50 bucks, so 30-40% less that FW.

On thursday i placed an order on the website,free shipping,the next monday was shipped,good, very fast,also tracking included,now w8.

After 3 weeks package still lost in the warp, as usual, really dont care, one day i close my track 17 for error and had to re-copy-paste it so i go on wartablegames, but the site was shut down...a little annoyng but ok,happen.

After other 2 weeks i receive the package,it was intact! cool usually cheap shipping are a pain and it arrive like the custom play at football with it.

Opened,very strong chineese epoxy resin smell,bad start, start looking at but the smell is too strong so i trow in dishsoap and water ,outside house, for 1-2 days.

I removed the water and start look more deply at it,leman russ plastic parts are nearly perfect,also include unnecessary parts, cool, no warping on le flat surfaces, would be a 8.5/10. Start to look at the FW resin parts....wow thats crap, everything thin,crisp, sharp, everything deformed,everything burn and mostry brocken 3/10.

12h later i open a dispute on paypal, seller ask me photo and that will send me replacement parts, wery happy about it, usually they ignore this stuff and need 2 months to get the paypal instant-refund,so i send him this album. 12h later seller refund me the total amount, dunno why but OK.

After that i touch this model only 2-3 weeks later seeing if I could do something, but every time I cleaned a piece of it a terrible smell come out,I decided to put it away and maybe make a scenic or otherwise in the future.

so if i had to make a ranking,shipping: free shipping 10/10 shipping time(5 weeks) 8/10 packaging 9/10 but everyone is good at this, now the model: plastic leman russ parts 8.5/10 bombards parts 3/10 price 7/10 Service: less than 1 week to ship 10/10 customer service 10/10

even with a bad cast this would easly be a solid 6.5/10 enough to reach the sufficiency and make me let do a new order,a bad cast can happen, but....but here "fall the donkey"... after a couple of weeks i develop a dermatitis like this one ,pic related,not my real hands(http://imgur.com/3smWHZe), and i had to spend 12 buck to take desoximetasone and healing, the skin of the fingers and palm of my hand was literally dead, I did not feel anymore for the whole time and the skin began to collapse and fall.

After a month's cure (it's a cortisone, so it's normal thats is slow) i'm completely cured,i am 100% sure that the dermatitis have developed touching this resin becouse i didnt touch anything different from usual the months before and after having touched it(and it dont come back), also the time gaps fit with the first sensibilization and the later development of the dermatitis.

Things like this shouldt happen because if unfortunately I had developed a permanent hypersensitivity because of it I would never be able to play warhammer anymore because of the dematitis that would have come back everytime i touch a resin miniature,yes,probably also made of a different resin becouse there are some common ingredients in many of em (and you can not live with your hands without sensitivity,dead skin, dry and exfoliate).

this event make the rating fall to 4/10, becouse i would give to the toxic material a 0/10, many of you probably would also had given a lower vote,but objectively it is the "best" average vote.

sorry for my bad english, i probably have made many grammar error :-P
