Is Sergeant's 3 still open for business and taking orders?

I was wondering that myself.Anybody know?

Unless I'm missing it, that doesn't answer the question. The more direct question is, with Lori now deceased, is the surviving sister doing anything with this business?

I'm figuring it's dead, but our pre-payments for TSATF 40 went to a good cause. Naturally, if anyone redesignates the project TSATF 50 and delivers in or before 2028 I'll be more than pleased.

Remember, gentlemen, "the pessimist has only pleasant surprises."

Does anyone have actual experience of placing an order in the last two months and then receiving or not receiving it?

Would be nice if a going concern would pick up the products and keep them in circulation.

Good rules should never die. Nor should they fade away…

They are still open for business, but taking longer to fulfill orders at present. I placed an order and got a reply message back from Lori's son (I think).

The Silver Fox03 Apr 2023 3:50 p.m. PST

I just placed an order as well today. No official response, not even an electronic receipt, but then again, I just placed the order about thirty minutes ago. If WargameDale received a response, I trust I will as well.

@The Silver Fox – It took a few days, but that was right after Lori passed. The last email I received was from Lawrence Brom (on Mar 23rd) saying they are processing orders for immediate shipment soon.

Good day TMP, I've recently spoke with Christy, the Flame is strong! She is not stopping TSATF40/nor rules sales! I ask that everyone please be patient with Christy right now during this very difficult time. She will certainly fill all orders and keep you all posted, and she said many thanks for everyone's continued support!!!!

Cheers,
JB

That's great to hear, Sgt. Guinness. And to close the loop on my previous post, I did receive word from Sergeants 3, just as WargameDale did, that they had received my order and were on top of it! Good news all around!

Personal logo Old Contemptible Supporting Member of TMP07 Apr 2023 9:50 p.m. PST

That's good news. I placed an order earlier today.

The Silver Fox02 May 2023 12:44 p.m. PST

So, just to close the loop on this: I placed an order on the Sergeants 3 website on 3 April. I received a notice the following day explaining that there would be a delay. I received notice today, 2 May, that the order has shipped. So, all in all, about a month's delay.

In short, then, Christy said there would be a delay and, sure enough, there was. It was relatively short and certainly reasonable given the circumstances. All in all, it seems all is well at Sergeants 3 on the business end of things.

Overall, I'm satisfied with the experience and have no concerns about Sergeants 3. Now we can just keep praying for Christy and the rest of the family as they adjust to life without Lori. (And we can look forward to the release of TSATF 40!)
