I would like to warn other manufacturer's/dealers about a bad trader - Miniature World USA, 13179 Fir Ave. in Bremerton, Wa. - Susan and Dennis Lunde. We shipped them an order for our product and the check they used to pay it with was returned to us "Payment Stopped". All efforts to contact them have failed. We have since learned that Old Glory in Pa. has had a similar run in with these people. Do business with them at your own risk.

I, too am having trouble getting payment from them for a small assignment. Their excuse is they have been having computer problems. They advertise on the minisculptor site and you may want to post a message there for them to respond to. Rodrick |

I have a client who has had problems with these people also. Fortunately none of my sculpts went to them for molding. A friend sent a miniature to them along with money and to date, does not have his castings or his money back. Sandra L. Garrity |

Well, it's a small world ain't it? I had a lot of trouble getting payment from the same Mr. Lunde for an ebay auction last year. I did get the cash in the end. |

Justin: What Mr. Lunde is involved in is out right fraud of goods and services. Even using your method (mimium orders and building credit) this individual would just do enough business to get a good credit rating and the necessary mimium of what they would want with your company and then stick it to your company. It does not matter how many locks you have on your door, a person intent on taking what you own will find a way to do it. |

I really would like to here of any problems with "Miniature World", as I am in discussion with them at the moment about a project (in fact I have produced some sample greens - but not sent them yet). Should I abandon this job or just be very careful how I deal with them! Positive feedback would also be good to here just to put my mind at rest! |
