*cries* I knew I should have got the pieces I wanted lastnight… anyone here get the email from Grandio about 30% off their collectibles stock? I was curious if it was a forum member who wiped out all their stock. In one day almost EVERYTHING is gone. *sob*
I was assuming it’s someone to resell on ebay or maybe the forum?

I just saw the thread in General of course after I posted this. 🙄 So maybe everyone just bought some then and it wasn’t all one person? Oh well… guess I need to live and learn and stop procrastinating so much. 🙄

April 28, 2010 at 11:17 pm #813206I got the email, but didn’t buy anything. They only production piece I really need is the large circle of cats and they didn’t have one of them. 🙁 I’m sorry you missed out, drag0n.

I was assuming it’s someone to resell on ebay or maybe the forum?More likely it was just a lot of different people on their mailing list buying up the last of each item they had in stock.
30% off list price, plus shipping, is not likely get get anyone all excited about spending a few thousand dollars to buy what is essentially slow-selling production items, in the hopes of being able to flip them at a profit. It is, however, enough to get individuals excited about buying something they had their eye on anyway.

Thats what happed with me, I’ve had my eye on a RF scratcher..and for some reason their price was lower than store price…+ the 30% off and low shipping…it still worked out to be on heck of a deal! 😀

They listed the Red Fire Mother earlier on eBay, and just now the Red Fire Emperor popped up. Wonder what else they will put up. 😮 I wish I had gotten to that Emperor first. 🙁 Would have loved to have him.

I’m confused!
You mean these two listings?
http://cgi.ebay.com/WINDSTONE-EDITIONS-RED-EMPEROR-DRAGON-PENA-/390190355100?cmd=ViewItem&pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item5ad928529c
http://cgi.ebay.com/WINDSTONE-EDITIONS-RED-MOTHER-DRAGON-MINT-PENA-/260595374771?cmd=ViewItem&pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3cacb1dab3They are Ruby, not Red Fire… and though they say they are from a store closing, if they got them from Grandio that is some speedy shipping. Sadly there have been stores closing other than Grandio and it’s entirely possible it cam from another store.

The mother and Emperor on E-bay are “Ruby’s” not Red Fire… ( The eyes on the RF are orangey-yellow… :))
May 3, 2010 at 1:24 pm #813213I would’ve gotten something, but I couldn’t create a user for some reason… I tried on several different computers too, and emailed support but they weren’t really interested in helping me. I guess they didn’t want my moneys 😕
May 3, 2010 at 5:06 pm #813214Yep, those are Rubies that are up right now. 🙂 I was stabbed in the eye by a yucca plant while pulling some weeds last night; but I still had to check the Windstone listings, even with an eye full of blood. Maybe I’ll be able to see better after my doctor visit. I’m sure his bill will be an eye opener. 😛
And Sagiaparri, why not call Grandio? They have a toll-free number, and you would also be able to find out what they actually do have. I discovered they had a Fledgling when I called and ordered my Riser, and it hadn’t been on their website. 😀
May 3, 2010 at 6:06 pm #813215Yea, I think it’s a coincidence.
The only Emperors they had when the email went out were the Em Pea and the Black and Gold.
*sobs again about missing out on the Em Pea*

That’s ok, it’s probably best that I hold off to buy something else. I don’t need 3 in less than a month anyways! 😛
