LOL A friend of mine on deviantart, freddyjasonv (or Chels as we call her) submitted this and I asked her if I could use it on this forum! It cracked me up bigtime! XD

I challenge all of you to come up with hilarious captions for this one!

Dear Melody,

I have a friend from the UK whose in Corvallis, Oregon right now. If you should meet a person visiting the factory by the name of Rachel M., please give her lots of freebies so she can bring them to me when I see her at Newark Airport later in the month.

😆 😆

What? Stop looking at me like that, everyone! I can dream, can’t I? XD

Well I have given up on the PYO sculps. I have bought some finished ones from forum members here and realized I CANNOT paint them as nice. 😆 If by some chance I get one it will just be commissioned out. 🙂 I have taken up a few hobbies (breaking a new gelding this coming spring) so dont have time to paint. 😀

Don’t feel bad JellyFish I doubt I could paint them half as nice myself. I’m willing to try one muse though, when I get around to buying it! Then I can post pics here and let the Windstone Judges give their critiques! 😀

Yeah, doesn’t the news make you sick?

And HECK YA I agree with MachineGuts, gimme the cup o’ cocoa!

Actually I’ll settle for eggnog cause I can’t have chocolate… *sniff*

For me:

Dear Santa,
Please help me find an answer to my stomach problems. I’m really tired of them after ten years.

For my family:

Dear Santa,
Please help my mother and father come down for Christmas! We’re all offering to help them pay and we want them to be with us! Also I’d like a big financial windfall for my poor Auntie (who is so selfless and gives to everyone else with her time, money, and hard work) and pray for the good health to all my family members.

(Well I’ll ask that to God too, first and foremost!)

Thanks everyone. I have sent that packing guide to many a seller but usually when the feedback is over 1000 like this sellers was I feel more confident in their packing skills so I might not have sent it this time (can’t remember).
Anyways the seller emailed me this morning telling me they would refund me + shipping (I hope they realized I want my money back for the shipping back to them as well, I don’t think I should have to be out any money on this transaction even though I know the buyer usually fronts the return shipping). I told them I would email them when I got back from the post office so hopefully there is a happy ending in sight 🙂 . It’s nice not to have to fight with the seller through paypal about this whole thing.

Well it’s great the seller says he/she will refund you but why not PACK THE ITEMS CORRECTLY IN THE FIRST PLACE? Why is a seller willing to take these chances and lose money?? Cause that’s what just happened! Geez it makes no sense to me… :shrug:

[Evelynne]

Aw man, scary! I sure hope your son gets this figured out with a doc so he doesn’t have to go through that again!
Sending prayers your way ^_^

[Evelynne]

😀 Awesome idea! So creative! I’m off to check your links now… ^^

Man, that sucks 🙁 . I can relate. Had the same kinda thing happen to me. It’s so frustrating when sellers cut corners on packing – even if you ask them to take care in doing so 😡 . Here’s a link I’m going to give to any future ebay buyers I receive Windstones from. http://bladespark.topcities.com/wpacking.html

That’s a great link, and it’s how I learned to properly ship these myself. But as a collector I can easily determine how heartbreaking it would be to lose pieces due to careless shipping (I never experienced that yet but I never want to) and as a seller I make certain to pack these to the hills. I have had many a happy buyer and my eBay feedback remains at 100%. 🙂

Good idea purpleturle! I know I will be asking about double boxing and packing peanuts/bubble wrap to the sellers before I bid from now on. (Though usually the “real” sellers will state this in their auction to begin with.)

Was it Jade or Emerald?

I asked her this and since there is no jade curlie that I know of, I suspect it’s the emerald.

👿 👿 👿 :shout: :shout:

D*MN but this crap is pissing me off!! I feel for you, I really do, and please everyone forgive my ranting but I know what this is like!!

After getting jipped out of an emp (see the thread in Community if you have not already…) and having to go through all that, including having sellers either outright LIE or make tons of excuses…I am fuming every time I hear about this crap!

To have 2 mint pieces send to you carelessly wrapped indicates the seller just wants to be CHEAP and make more money off of you paying for two boxes! You made this clear, right, that you wanted them shipped separate? Yeah. It’s obvious why the seller didn’t do it.

You have my sympathies. And my anger 😆

[Evelynne]

🙁 I haven’t even sent mine out yet but I don’t know if I could top what I’ve seen so far! *giggle*

I’ll be sending my package out this weekend though, just gotta go shoppin’ for the goodies for my swap. ^^

Hmm…I’m really curious to find out who is sending me a package! Waiting is haaaaard…lol

[Evelynne]

Oh my I will definitely want a copy of that book!

Great idea Melody! I have a couple of COAs but no sketches ^_^
