[QUOTE="SublevelStudios, post: 456135, member: 5051"] To quote the late great Bill Hicks: 'Ah, sarcasm, come on in!'. To be honest Craig, looking at the pictures of the packaging, it simply was NOWHERE near adequate for a £1000 item. I've sent loose figures in better boxes, I'm surprised you thought it was adequate having been around for as long as you say you have and knowing the state collectors demand an item be received in, espeically high value. I'm sure had the shoe been on the other foot you would be equally angry having forked out a huge sum. And is it true you actually stated he had not asked or paid for more sturdy packaging before you sent it? Secondly, the concept of getting people back onside by helping you write another book for chairty is a bizarre notion. I presume the intention was a good one but you've completely misread the situation - this would never get the community to support you and in fact you've shot yourself in the foot. I'm pleased you have resolved the issue with Mike but I would take a long hard look at the handling of this and learn from it. It's really done you no favours I'm afraid which is a massive shame as the book looked like an interesting read and deserved the full support on the community. [/QUOTE]
