Has anyone else notice that there's been a distinct drop in the number of complete sets being sold on ebay. That and the price is steadily increasing?

Has anyone ordered from creep1962 a complete WotDQ set and recieved it yet? I'm still waiting on mine. :(

Cheers,

I seem to remember some other users having a problem with creep1962 a while ago. Not sure what kind of problem it was, but I remember the name as someone to watch.

*way* too many ppl had problems with creep. I had planned on buying a complete set, but specifically skipped over any of his auctions. Its a hell of a gamble to actually bid on any of his stuff.

I personally don't buy from Creep1962 because of his high prices, expensive shipping and alleged history of problems. I've never had a bad experience with him personally, but we've heard from others that have over the past few years here.

Chances are you will receive your items without any problem. A common complaint about Creep1962 is that he takes a very long time to ship items, so it may be a little while before you see your items.

Best of luck,

I've never had a problem with him either. That said, I haven't bought anything from him in a long time, largely because there are much better deals out there.

I bought the Wardrums set with extras from him. He communicated and got it to me just fine, in fact he including an extra set of uncommons and commons. He did take a little while(about a month) because he does have a huge demand and he ships first come first serve.

I tried to get in early this set but he wanted almost 200$ more for his WOTDQ set with extras. I thought he was crazy so I bought 5 cases elseware. Shortly thereafter his prices came down to competitive amounts. So I may try him again with Blood War.

I had a bad experience with him shipping a set of uncommon Aberrations set to me instead of an uncommon Archfeinds set. No need to tell you the difference in price. Anyway, it was like pulling teeth to get a refund or exchange and he became very degrading as if I was the one who made the error. I will never buy from him again. Too bad for him as I usually spend $200-$400 a month on minis.

Just DDM. As for the storage space...starting to get there. After BW, I may have to invest in another 5 drawer cabinet, since the 3 I currently have are filled pretty close to max.

I ordered Wardrums from him. It took a little while to get, but I think it depends on when you paid for it. I bought the set just before the release date, so mine took a couple of weeks after to get. I'm pretty sure he ships the items in the order they are listed/completed/paid for.

I got a really bad vibe from him recently in regards to WotDQ listings he had, so I won't buy from him again. He did not impress me at all with his "deals" he had for me as a repeat customer. Apparently I'm not alone in my sentiments.

I hope everything turns out great for you. It probably will.
