Yesterday, I received several packages in the mail from various eBay sellers.  One of which was from the UK.

I didn't pay much attention, I was expecting several things, so I opened it.  To my surprise, there were 6 Imperial Knights and a VERY nice, large ruined tower. ???

Of course, these were not my items!  There was no return address on the outside of the box, but there was an invoice inside.

Turns out, it was from a seller I'd  had alot of trouble with.  It took 3 months for them to ship my stuff, but I'd finally received it over a month ago.  :glare:

I don't know how it happened, but this seller had put my address on someone else's items.

So, anyway, I contacted the seller, got the buyers address and mailed it today (on their dime, not mine!).

Boy, sure would have been sweet!  Especially after all the trouble I had with that seller.

Why do I get the feeling, somewhere, someone is laughing at me.... :(

Don't listen to that feeling. You did the right thing. What goes around, comes around. One of the things I like best about the Epic - or 6mm sci-fi - community is that it's relatively small. We will all be better off if we are real people in each others eyes - rather than faceless nobodys.

Oh, I never would have done that to another collector, but it would have just been so nice to get back at someone who screwed me over for 3 months.

Good on you! Take the upper road.  You may be down the stuff, but up on character.

You did good.  Also, it sounds a bit like this seller is incompetent, rather than malicious.
