What did he expect you to do, just "know" how they were supposed to go?

It seems he wishes to wash his hands of the situation:

"New message to: marc_tarrington
How am I to use them then? The description didn't state the instructions were missing and, at the price paid, should be complete.

marc_tarrington
the sheet of decals came with a 100 + sets , thats how i got them ,i dont have any instructions

I bought the decal sheet and received it in great condition but it is missing the instructions for placement. I do need them to be able to differentiate the various schemes and to place the stencil markings. I'd be happy to accept photocopies or scanned copies via e-mail as these are for use and not resale.

That's unfortunate Saul. I checked on Scalemates and there are several members that have that decal set. Maybe one of them could scan the instructions for you.


did find this as well

Thank you both, the seller has offered to refund me but since I can use what was posted, I will let him be.

Thanks again,

UPDATE: The seller refunded the full amount. I offered to pay some as only a partial refund was in order but he stated not to worry as he saw it would be in good hands. I tip my hat to Marc Tarrington:

I noticed today that SprueBros had finally gotten their shipment in. I would have considered getting one a week ago but finally splurged and got the computer monitor I had been looking at for about a year.

An LG 32inch 4k monitor. It is 28 1/2 inches wide and working on this large a screen is a new experience. It's about 1/3rd bigger than the old monitor, and with the higher resolution it is much crisper to look at.

With the TV tuner board I have installed on my computer it also works as a TV!

Frequent buyers reward James?

At least all the rigging is on the outside of the Taube. Gonna be a small fortune in turnbuckles. (y)

Nice scores guys! Pup, I have the four-kit set of the Douglas World Cruisers. I'm hoping to build them all up and put them on a dio base. Two will have floats, the other two wheels.

Here's my latest models that I bought last week when I was at Brookhurst Hobbies. All of these are in 1/72 scale:

Those look good Mark! Look forward to seeing the Hemmtt build.

I know what you have is no fun Saul. Hope you get to feeling better soon! :zen :zen

Still waiting on the Valiant order. About time to give it up for lost and contact Valiant again. Can't trust the local mail anymore.
