Peter asked for the money to be sent as a personal cheque - I was happy to do this - as again, I would like to trust the members on here. The cheque was dispatched straight away and obviously arrived as it was cashed pretty much straight away. At this point I would have expected some communication from the seller - i.e. your cheque has arrived etc. and as I didn't I sent him a couple of emails asking what was going on. Eventually I did get a message back saying that he's tried to contact me with no joy - computer glitch apparently. Anyways, no worries, the figures would be dispatched once the cheque has cleared. That's fine. The cheque cleared from my account on the Wednesday and the seller said he would send them on the Monday.
The box arrived and my first impression was that of happiness, the figures on the whole were in good shape - only real blemish I could see was some staining on the Lando General Cape. It was a bit disconcerting that the figures had been bundled in all together with no protection but they had survived. The figures were also loose and there was just a big bag of weapons. I started going through this and noted that the Ewok Bows were both the wrong colour. I checked a few more of them and found 4-5 more repro weapons. There was also no black blaster for Luke Stormie, no Paploo Staff and no Black Palace Blaster for Luke Poncho.
Therefore I had not received what had been advertised. I made contact with the seller to tell him this and that is where my problems have started. Basically this can all be found in the following thread. The seller I believe bought these in good faith but does not accept that either a)these are repros or b)that I did not switch the ones he sent me for repros. He did add some extra figures to the deal (although didn't make any effort to tell me this - however I have done some rough workings out on the value of these figures and they don't make up for what is missing/repro)
In addition to the repro weapons, there were a large number of Blue Smuggler and Stormtrooper Blasters rather than Blue Black ones. The Warok sent was packed with a Lumat Quiver and there was an additional Repro Stormtrooper Blaster. Peter did offer to swap over the blasters for Blue/Black ones that he had, however denied that he had send me repro weapons. I posted pictures on the boards and evidence was pretty conclusive that these were repro weapons.

I did not hear back from Peter in over a week so decided to post this on here
http://forum.rebelscum.com/t1088688/
Amazingly, I then got an email ! However, after this had dragged on for a couple of weeks I suggested to Peter that we could end the issue with me sending back the blasters for replacement together with the weapons that I considered repro and that he could send me an additional 12 blasters to cover them - this way he was not out of pocket, had his weapons back and I was happy to put the deal to bed.
This, however is the final email I have received from him tonight
"The value of the trilogo Fett is £60 upwards so covers the cost of what you claim to have spent... interestingly you have a thread selling vintage weapons as well as a thread requesting ewok weapons BEFORE our deal...
If you defame me in anyway I will sue you... claiming damages for loss of potential earnings from the sale of the rest of my collection... far more than you already paid. I advice you to refrain from any further harrassing, threatening or accusing emails or the perpetuation of any threads regarding this matter.
If I receive any further communications I will be contacting the police and having a harassment warning issued to you.
This deal is concluded."
I believe that Peter is suggesting that I switched the weapons. I have about 20-30 people on the SWFUK site that would be happy to give me a character reference - http://www.starwarsforum.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=13272
I have in no way harassed Peter, other than asking for a resolution to this problem. The only 'threats' I have made are that I would post the information about this transaction on the boards. Peter's wife has been in hospital recently and he has constantly stated that this is why communication has been bad. On the majority of the emails I have sent to Peter I have asked about his wife's health and have accepted his reasons as to why he has not been able to communicate.
As for his threat to sue me - I suggest that he goes right ahead and does that because he will lose - and will waste a lot more money in doing so that he would have done in putting this deal right in the first place.
and to be threatening you with a lawsuit wtf
