I placed an order around a month ago, and received an email that it was dispatched on the 11th of August. Haven't seen the parcel yet, though I got every other order placed around the same time in about 4-5 days time from other similar firms in the UK.

Also having trouble contacting them. Sent an email through their website and two through my yahoo address, but no reply as of yet. Also provided two alternate addresses in the later email, so this shouldn't be a spamguard issue.

Should I be worried?

They have a notice up on their site of delays due to illness. I hope your stuff arrives expediently

Angel Barracks09 Sep 2013 1:45 a.m. PST

hmmm it is very odd that it has not arrived after a month.
I would have no doubt that you will get what you paid for though, but if it went missing as noted they may not be aware if ill.

I will let Jo know about the post.

Yea, that notice went soon after I placed the order, but I was still notified of the order status being "Dispatched" on the 11th.

Thanks, AB! This was a sort of a last resort, didn't really know what to do next.

CorpCommander09 Sep 2013 1:02 p.m. PST

Sorry to hear about the illness. I hope everything is ok there. They are very nice people to deal with. I'm certain they will get your order sorted out.

Chef Lackey Rich Fezian09 Sep 2013 2:01 p.m. PST

Ditto. Didn't realize they were having health issues. Must be pretty bad to mess up their order facilitation – they've always been flawless in my experience.

Sappihappo09 Sep 2013 11:05 p.m. PST

I wouldn't mind the delay, it's just that I'm confused as to whether they actually dispatched it or not..

Hi!

I have nearly the same problem. I ordered seme minis for cthulhu skirmish in august 24. got the mail, that my order was processing, but thats all. In the website, they said, that maybe 2 weeks to dispatch the orders, but my ordering was 3 weeks ago. I write 3 mails, but got no answers. I have no problem with the delay, but bit of disturbing that I have no answers or anything form them. Also have a problem: in the BCB website my adress seems wrong, there is showing only my country, my state and my postal code, but my name and my street adress are missing. When I clicked to the update the adress, I could se my correct adress, but only in that fields. I think maybe they can't answer to me, beacuse they net have a stucked (thinkig this because see the problems in the website), so if anybody have personal contact with them, I hope that man ( or women) can help to inform them my problems. ( my order number is 2213)
Thanks!

ps: sorry for the bad or weird english, but i not use the language often, only for reading…

Sadly, no further information on this matter as of yet..

Has anybody heard anything from Black Cat lately.. they haven't replied to any emails or texts for nearly a month.Been trying to get hold of them to cancel an order but nothing an no further info..

Sappihappo02 Oct 2013 10:12 p.m. PST

Nope, and I never received that order mentioned above either. Luckily it wasn't more than 20 pounds, but I'm still somewhat disappointed.

lesliefromhungary04 Oct 2013 11:22 a.m. PST

I started a claim in Paypal, but they didn't answer there too, so I got back back my money today. I'm so unhappy about this, because I really wanted the minis, it was the only that fits to my Strange Aeons ideas. Now I'm waiting them to back at business, and maybe give them an another chance. But still waiting to the lifesignals of the Black Cat…

Mystweaver10 Oct 2013 4:07 p.m. PST

Sorry to hear about the poor health of black cat! First news ive read about it. Ive been sending messages for over two months eith no reply. Now i know why. Placed my order on the 13th august :-( too late to claim back through paypal. If this message gets picked up, my order no. Is 2203

Fingers crossed that black cat gets well soon and i look forward to some day receiving my order

Sad to hear about an illness but if that's the case they shouldn't still be trading if unable to complete.

I've unfortunately had to take a dispute up with Paypal. :-(

Dr Mathias Fezian26 Jan 2014 1:35 p.m. PST

Has anyone received any responses yet? Their website has been updated with an announcement about illnesses and delays.

TwinMirror13 Mar 2014 5:35 a.m. PST

Any news on this case yet? Like a lot of people here, I've had an order (and my money) waiting with black cat since last autumn.
I Hope they're ok, but it would be good to actually know what's happening. That 'update' about illness has been onsite for many months now…

deflatermouse22 Mar 2014 4:05 a.m. PST

I've also been wondering how things are. I've been looking and waiting but also hope things are better.

The Angry Piper04 Apr 2014 5:23 a.m. PST

Glad I found this thread. I was considering a big and (long-overdue) first order from this company.

I'm sorry to hear of the illness. That's tough for any small business. Does anyone know anything more?

The site seems to be making new product updates…
