Good luck with the order. You will need it. Get yourself over to Amibay for the latest on this so called seller .

Just to give you an idea on typical response from Steve Clifford

HI
Sorry for the delay, I have found a box of 10 purple cases (mislabeled as green) so that was a surprise!
What's your address so I can send you the Purple Case?
Thanks!

Okay, gave my address, let's see if it really arrives after a week of Easter.

Thank you for your message, with Easter just around the corner, any
messages will be answered after we reopen on Monday 13th April as we
are clearing as many orders as possible.

If its about an existing order, by all means leave a message via My Account.

We are also closed from Friday 3rd April and reopen Monday 13th April.

Many thanks!

RetroPassion

I've split the topic. I felt the original post by Boing-Ball, to an off-site thread of experiences with the seller was not in line with the original purpose of the thread on here.

Moderating is sometimes straightforward (deleting spam), and sometimes a judgement call and one side will disagree with the decision. It shouldn't open people trying to help up to personal attacks on here or anywhere else (ref comments at end of the thread on Amibay).

I was invited by F0llett to be a moderator, I didn't ask.

I'm not a buddy of Steve / Retropassion, something I've stated before. I've bought off Retropassion once online (and I got my order in a couple of days)  and a couple of times in person at shows.

Yes. But you have made the wrong decision by removing this originally.

So that others on here can also make their judgement call.

It’s interesting that there are comments made about other sellers on here. But as soon as RetropassionUK show up. It’s “Oh, we must protect him”. “he does no wrong”. Right!

You should see what’s happened over on EAB. Retropassion has even deserted his poor so called devouted customers over there.

Please! Too much Bias towards this seller. let people have their say.

@Boing-ball thanks for replying. This is my point about judgement calls; you think I made the wrong decision (and so will others), some will think it was right, and some won't have an opinion either way. Please let's agree to disagree and leave it there.
