I was once shafted by a bloke who claimed he'd been wrongly arrested for armed robbery so couldn't provide the toys I'd paid for. Turns out it wasn't a wrongful arrest and he got some decent shovel...
which still didn't get me my models!!!

I can't really understand how it has suddenly become my fault.....

Classic re-direction, if its not your fault it has to be his, but it cannot be his fault because he does not see anything wrong with his behavior.

To be fair it sounds more like he needs someone else to pay him so he can pay you.

I feel sorry for his next "customer" to!

Things are moving a pace now.......

He's communicated with me......mainly to say "God help the next painter who deals with me" and to refund me - he has had to "paint a job that pays" so he has not had time to spray undercoat the figures to send them back  - so he must have done some work on them over the last six months (I did offer to pay for any completed figures)

I can't really understand how it has suddenly become my fault.....

I mean, really. Why COULDN'T you just wait until he decided to maybe eventually get around to painting these things? I mean, the nerve!
