will do arlla, whippet does have dibs- we talked some turkey- but you have second and things can come up like you said and it still needs to get here and i have to officially verify its condition in person. i’ll keep everyone posted!! 😀 i love the piece myself so i wanted to be sure i went to someone on here who really wants one. it brings a little more peace to the world.
i definitely agree that fedex is awful! where i work we get deliveries from everyone and fedex is trouble when it comes to packages.i personally like usps i have always had good experiences. we get fish and plants 2x a week and fedex loves to take our fish which are marked “fragile live fish this end up” and SLAM them UPSIDE down on our counter!! they laugh away too when we shriek. of course we report them etc. but overall the suppliers say they have good results with them and won’t switch.they have been a little better as of late since we’ve berated the delivery guys so much though. they let are plants get cold and freeze too. also my dad has had many clients recieve packages from fedex that were damaged but they hid the damage until the person signed they showed em. someone shipped a painting and fedex punctured the box thru all the packing and thru the painting but not thru the box on the other side!the guy didn’t want to take the flack, so he leaned it against their house, good side out, told them “it was fine how you doing today?” distracting with conversation, got the signature and RAN to the truck and sped off!! of course the person picks it up, turns it around and sees the mess and is devastated… though they should have really checked first, but the point is they were being sneaky.
personally i regularly get punctured boxes from ups or fedex. my sister moved a few years ago and shipped alot of stuff via ups and they broke every single box, one of which the guy dropped right in front of us, somehow tipped it off his hand-truck( i have no idea HOW!) dropping it in the road the box splitting open shattering all of my sis’s dishes right in the middle of traffic!! mind you the box wouldn’t have split normally but they had totally pulverized every single box- she moves all the time so she is a master packer, but it looked like they beat these boxes with bats. they also lost 6 i think out of 13. he wasn’t even sorry- he was pissed he had to pick em up!! my sis was crying for days as they were her dream dishes she had saved for years to get, some super fancy artisan ones, service for a ton of people.
anyhoo, those are just my tales, i know peeps have opposite results other places.just thought i’d put in my two cents. it was more than that ,but oh well. i ramble.i’m a little at a loss of what to ask if i take money, i paid 85 for mine with the broken hoof about a year ago. what do they go for now, about 120-150 in perfect shape?
i could do a trade for it too, hmmmmmmm what would i like…. of course it does still have to get here in one piece, but i’m not worried as they ship stuff daily. the biggest thing is being sure there are no fleas bites, but it sounds good so far!
alrighty i made a juicy find! i have a gothic unicorn coming to me to in a couple of days! i have one already with a chip in the hoof, which i will keep cuz i don’t mind, but this one is alledgedly mint (i think without box )(very competant shopkeeper) and he will either be up for grabs here or ebayed. woot! of course we don’t really know til he gets here, but as soon as he does i’ll post pics (good ones by my dad) so y’all can check him out!!
bummer!!!!!! well, someday it will happen for me……. someday…….just gotta get lucky… and have money at the same time!
oh my gawd that oriental is gorgeous! really really stunning! eeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! yes, how much do you want for him, huh?
yeah how about that?! you think they ‘d just give em a wipe- it takes two seconds! i love it when peeps call pieces MINT and they are so dust-laden its hard to tell the quality of their color, lol! hmmm how many flea bites are under all that? not nesessarily in this case, but some sellers definitely! well, this is nice, there might be enough orientals go around this time! they all look dark though, i want a bright one in either emerald or peacock! hmmmm…decisions, decisions…
i’d be interested in the peacock oriental too, as i have the young and he needs some coordinating company!! i’d like it if he was the bright peacock though, we’ll have to see when u post his pics! yummmmmmmmmm!!
wow! slammin gift for yourself! i think you made an excellent choice, the emp looks incredible in rainbow; he wears all the colors in the rainbow so well, and it really brings out his detail.much more exciting than ruby, but he still looks good in that too. i don’t have an emp yet- one on layaway- nor am i really fond of the rainbow -i have a fledge though, he’s cute- but he is incredible in it!! i’d love one, but he is big bucks!! drool! yes, i do have “the list” ready when my taxes get here! oh boy!
i think dragonfeathers was going to get a ruby scratcher too- i know she was pondering it. i love the animation of the scratchers! i want to eventually have a trio of the lap, fledge and scratcher in ruby, so this one is the start for me. oh my gawd, i can’t wait to see a ruby in person! eeeeee! gosh i wish i had a bday coming up! i hope you get something JUICY!!!! i want more goodies! i should be grateful for what i have managed to get lately though. hmmm, well……. it is almost valentines day….. hmm. i might sign somebody up with a gift idea… lol.
oh yeah i totally wanted that gold emp. too ugh! but not enough $$ at one time! ack! i got a ruby scratcher, mother unicorn and baby unicorn. i wanted so much more, i’m kinda chasing retireds right now- i’m trying to prioritize but its so hard!! ohhhh the agony!! we’ll see… i may break down tonight and get a ruby fledge or a bad cat candlelamp or….ack! lol!
