Hi, has anyone had any dealings with BLACK CAT MINIATURES (54mm miniature specialists) lately?

I'm trying to order some Alpha Miniature gladiators from them.

I think it's a one-man show, so you might try contacting them again. Could be something simple as being on vacation, or your email(?) got sent to a spam box.

I hope you get your gladiators -- fun figures those were to paint.

At LAF there is a current thread with A LOT of people complaining that they have orders NOT FULFILLED for over a year.

From Blac Cat Bases main page:

"Hi,

I apologise for the delay on dispatch of orders, this has been due to severe and unexpected ill health. Also our internet has been down for a long period of time and so I have been unable to access anything! Ben is now home from the hospital making it possible for me to cast orders while looking after him. We would like to thank everyone for their patience whilst we have had problems. This is most unlike us especially for any length of time. You will receive confirmation once your order has been dispatched. Once again my sincere and unreserved apologies!

Jo"

So maybe you'll want to wait until things go straight again.

I want several miniatures from them too, but I'm not ordering until I know for shure the store is running smootly again.

Hope that helps.

I have not heard from them in many months now.

Walt asked about Black Cat MINIATURES.

magokiron replied about Black Cat BASES.

Different companies.

Also not to be confused with Black Hat Miniatures.
