Will do exactly the same along with a bunch casualty miniatures 😀

Waiting for my parcel to arrive!
-
Just ordered a small Zulu army. I'm doomed....
-
I ordered when the sale was on but haven't received my package yet :-[ ...starting to worry
-
Same here. I guess they run a "sale" and that keeps them busy casting and shipping minis until the next sale...
-
mine turned up within a few days of ordering...
-
Still waiting for mine as well;

Yes I logged in to my account today and the order says "unfulfilled" so they know about it, I didn't bother phoning up. Just have to wait till they arrive. No worries, after all it's not as if they were going to be painted as soon as I got them anyway...
-
I've recently ordered, in date sequence, from Black Tree, North Star, Foundry, Ral Partha and Warlord. All have arrived, providing a fast and accurate service.........except guess who. However, I have the impression that they get there in the end. When ordering from BTD, patience is the watchword.
-
Just checked my account and it also says 'unfulfilled' Which neatly sums up my feelings.... :)
-
You can send them a mail, they have always been very helpful for me. When my order arrived some packs were missing but a note was included that the rest would be shipped afterwards and they arrived quickly.
-
I put in 2 orders recently, the second one came first followed by the initial order after another week or so.
-
I placed two "sale time" orders this year both took around a month to arrive ((london). I think patience is definitely the word and they probably get a mass of orders in during their sales, which are fairly frequent, and my last order is still outstanding (placed about 3 weeks back).
As someone also said it's not like I was going to paint them straight away, however....
I think in the current world of 24 hour turnarounds by many companies, customers have certain expectations. BTD could avoid a lot of chasing emails and negaitive comments if they simply said up front, that orders can take up to x weeks. That's not difficult is it ?
Personally given their price and quality I am fine with waiting that little longer, but it's all about customer comms.
-
I think we are spoilt lately like never before. We expect instant gratification. BTD's business model with the sale thing is a bit crafty, drop prices for a sale and cast up afterwards but i can live with that.

As one od those who posted to say they were waiting for their order to arrive, it seems only fair to confirm my figures arrived. The order was accurate, mould quality good and I 'm happy with the sculpts.
I'd have to concur with the thoughts of the posts above. I've become too used to ordering online and having parcels delivered in a matter of days.

Ooh that's good to hear mine might come soon then.
I must say some manufacturers are extremely fast. Andy Grubb of Grubby tanks for one. He was one of those who didn't like the internet a few years back but his service is now second to none. My last order came 36 hours after I ordered it online.
