Questions regarding DnD Miniatures

[brehobit]

I also have an unresolved problem with Chumba Toys, they are officially on my bad vendor list.

Chumba is telling me that they "are getting more cases this coming week to ship backorders items so we should have them out then." Does that sound similar?

Chumba is telling me that they "are getting more cases this coming week to ship backorders items so we should have them out then." Does that sound similar?

The last response I got from them said, "I apologize, it has obviously taken much longer to catch up than I thought, but we are about %90 done so if yours hasn't shipped yet it will any day now. Thanks so much for your patience."

That was almost two weeks ago. I first reported the problem with my order over six weeks ago. I have been sending weekly e-mails reminding them of the problem. I do not expect it to ever be resolved. At this point, I am simply assuming Chumba Toys has ripped me off, so I invest minimal effort in trying to get them to act responsibly and feel no remorse in telling others that Chumba Toys is a rip-off.

There are places to buy them if you're this side of the pond (England), but I've forgotten the name... EBay seems a good place to start though.

Also I found some singles in a random shop when I was on holiday.

I went to the yahoo store and sent a fairly detailed complaint off to them. Don't really expect it to do much, but if you get a chance, it might help if you do the same thing.

Thanks for the link. We'll see if either one of us gets any help from Yahoo or any results from Chumba Toys.

OK. I have to report that I received an e-mail from Chumba Toys today, saying the rest of my order will ship tomorrow. It is a very good sign that they appear to be stepping up to the plate and honoring their responsibilities. I'll keep everyone posted.

I bought two Underdark boosters over the weekend, hoping beyond hope that I would get an Elminster figure. Fortune smiled upon me. I have the Elminster figure.

One last question: where can I find the value of (rare) DDM minis?

Apart from magazines like Scrye, try http://www.maxminis.com

Go to the Reference List forum, and look for Zenako's price list - it should be stickied. Zenako has been gathering information from online stores for a year or two now, and should give you an idea.

Cheers!

Generally speaking, you can buy most minis on eBay for 50-70% off Zenako's price list.
