    I got a family of Brown dragons from the same seller, and I asked specifically about picking it up in person. The agent politely declined saying it would be well packed, and that the seller was a bit of a hermit. I got lucky with mine, but the really didn’t have to travel very far either. I’m sorry the emp didn’t make it. As for the post office, I’m still trying to collect from them from a batch destroyed in december. I don’t want to panic you, but be prepared for a bit of a wait.

      I’m so sorry to see this! I wish you the best of luck.
      I wish at this point you had contacted one of us in CA to pick him up in perosn then we could have shipped him to you secured to make sure this did not happen. I’m in NO CA and Nirvana, Wolflodge100 and others are in SO CA I know I would have helped if I could and I’m sure they would be more then happy to help also. I already have my Greem Emperor so I would not be tempted to keep him!! I’m very sorry this happened

      The thing is, I have no idea who it actually belonged to. It was shipped to me from Louisiana, but I’m returning it to California. NO clue what’s going on there.

      The box wasn’t damaged at all. From how he was positioned when I opened it, wings were up. The box is only 2 inches deeper than the emperor is wide from chest to rear of wings. It’s fairly clear to me that something heavy was plopped down on him, snapping the wings and neck, and all hell broke loose from there. With barely more than a handful of newspaper, nothing stopped the box from squishing 2 inches.

      It is a shame I have to send him back, but I did ask if we could work it out for me to keep the pieces, and he said he must have it returned. If he holds true to what he said, he’ll refund the money himself as soon as I give him a tracking #. If not, I’ll figure out who else to make a claim through. I used a credit card via paypal. I’ve never had to file a dispute, and I hope I don’t have to start here.

      I will let him know that the pieces may be desired by others. If he has any control, he may be willing to try. But if I’m sending it back to the dummy who packed it, we’re probably S.O.L.

      And thanks, Pip, for the picture. Yours is very pretty. Lucky you to have him all this time! I don’t recall if I was aware of Windstones prior to the early 90s, but I was too young to afford ’em anyway.

        I’m glad yours got to you okay. It would’ve been worse if none of them made it.
        I dunno how the post office will respond. I don’t even know what I’m doing. I don’t expect anything but BS from them. But I’ll do what he asked in the email. I’ll tell them what happened and bring pics. Regardless of what they say, I’m gonna ship the thing back to this woman in CA, and give this guy the tracking #. Then we’ll see.

        I’ll keep people posted. I hope he’s as honest as he seems nice. I really don’t handle this kind of stress well….

          Haha, sorry! I know what that’s like – my roller derby practices are HELL with girls real names and their derby names.
          I don’t know very many ppl’s real names on here, so I won’t ever use ’em (‘cept the obvious, like Melody & Cheryl). You’re forever Draco to me!

          Oh Maebnus, I was sick when I saw your pictures! I wanted him too, but he went way beyond what I could add to my CC debt right now. I am sooooo broke! 🙁

          I hope you get your money back soon. Good luck in finding another one! {{{{{{hugs}}}}}}

                Thanks Goldragon. I can only hope to find another. With my luck, it’ll be around Christmas when every yahoo comes out of the woodwork with Windstones, and then the other yahoos that come out to buy Windstones will make it impossible for me
                Hehe, guess I’ll have to start saving now… if I can… ENABLERS! 😛 😆

                    What an absolute shame! Seeing one in such nice condition reduced to that. Maybe the pieces will be offered up again by the original owner? I get the feeling sometimes that the only way I’ll see one of those old emps in my presence is by restoring a broken one 🙁 I’m just glad that you got your money back. Good luck towards finding another one!

                      Ooooh, that’s just miserable. I’m so sorry. I was actually intending to bid on that guy, but I missed the end of the auction. ;_;

                      As far as the post office goes, maybe I’ve been lucky, but everything I’ve gotten broken in the mail has successfully gone through the claims process. It’s disgusting that they have to take the pieces and throw them away, but unless you get a creep at your P.O., you shouldn’t have a problem getting your money back….
