YEA for Kyrin
May 24, 2008 at 9:25 pm #707073i use incence to remove smoke smell(i smoke>.>) i try not to smoke in the house but when its raining i dont really have a choice..use the stick incence not the oils..the oils will leave a rather nasty residue
May 24, 2008 at 9:55 pm #707074To remove the smell, have you try dryer sheets? I cut those to size and place them on the felt. It usually does the trick for me. I have had a kinglet come to me smelling like smoke, and the fabric sheet worked. ( I also wiped him down with just a wet paper towel) See if that helps. 😀

I meant to send a photo as well, I just forgot. I’ll send it when she replies back.
Yeah, pictures say it all, and with pieces like that, each one should have its own box, then those boxes get put in one, and then that box get double boxed.
She can’t disbelieve you when she sees the result.
Also, tell her you only want a partial refund, just enough to pay to have the pegasus repaired, if you aren’t demanding the whole thing back, she may just work with you.
If you need me to, I can work up a rough estimate on a letterhead for you to show her, I’ll have to guess at shipping, but I’m thinking it would be $15 each way, so $30 in shipping, plus repair fees.
Let me know if you would like that, and I can get that for you…it should also help with insurance, they just might be willing to give you the repair charges, but without the estimate they might give you the money for the peg, but demand him in return, and I hate it when they do that. Throwing it away is just not right…he’s savable.
Let me know what happens and if you need an estimate.

Well she took care of it for me. Her nose was bent a little out of shape when I mentioned something about smoke. But that wasn’t the big deal. After I sent a picture, she offered to reimburse me for that single piece. I asked for $70 because it was practically mint before she sent it to me (and ebay listings have ended in an average of $90)… and I figured I had room to come down. She didn’t even question, just sent the money. I feel a bit guilty now, but she asked me to send it back to her too.
So I don’t get my pegasus that I wanted and she’s out a bit of money.
I just hope I was fair in asking for that much back.. 😕

I should think so. You paid for an item that you essentially never got! I would have asked for a full refund from the get-go.

The the one box was placed in a bigger box surrounded by newspaper and more bubble wrap.
I think she misunderstood the “double box” method.
She’s also not very happy with me… and I’m trying to be understanding. Hopefully she can be too.
That was you that won those? That was a great deal, provided they had arrived safely.
I was actually wondering about them the other day, whether or not they were received in good order or not.
I have a Male Pegasus that is nearly identical to how yours broke, but he was in his own box during that trip.
Considering that yours were all together in one box, I am amazed that none of the others received damage.
Note to Kyrin: I was waiting until your list got smaller. 8)

I agree, I was amazed that the others came out in good shape. Other than the broken one, the deal was awesome 🙂

It doesn’t look like my list will get smaller, so may as well get yours in the que now. PM me and we can get fees and all that figured out.
