I just got out of the hospital, and GW surprized me

How much is that in £? I haven\'t had any large orders so I haven\'t received a lot in free stuff. I did buy two blister packs of Kasrkin special weapons troops, which didn\'t have their backpacks in. GW sent me the 4 missing backpacks (2 melta, 2 plasma) plus 2 extra of each of those and 4 each of the grenade and heavy bolter backpacks. I also accidentally clicked on the wrong body option for GK terminator and phoned them up saying so, telling them it was my fault. They still said keep it and sent me the correct on for free. Luckily as I had converted one GK to use a stormshiel, I had the spare arms for the free model.

Someone at the club preordered the black templars army or whatever they were selling but the release date on the website was incorrect. He phoned them upasking why his order was late. They sent him his stuff with free pstage plus a couple of extra boxes of black templar stuff.

I got the original Tau army deal completely free as the guy on the till forgot to charge me for it.

I wasn\'t about to remind him lol

 

[Roger Bunting]

??? How can he forget to charge you for a great big box of stuff?

EDIT: Mind you, that was out of forgetfullness or stupidty (pick one depending on how mean you want to be), not the official aftersales stuff.

The way it was explained to me is that it\'s like a worm ith lots of bellies... lumps or whatever, one of the lumps burst.

Also, often my thinking is even worse than my typing! lol

By subtle use of subterfuge and misdirection :twisted:

I spent ages chatting to the mail order troll whilst he was serving a couple of other customers and then I went to get something else off the shelves. He then charged me for the extra item but didn\'t ring through the mail order. Not the sharpest tool in the box but it was a very busy day. :drunk:

 

[Roger Bunting]

Oh, so it was ordered, you didn\'t have a big box of things right there. Of course you didn\'t, those types of deals are direct only, silly me.

I was actually doing it on staff mail order so I could supply all the store info to the troll which helped in the misdirection part. That said I certainly didn\'t do it on purpose, I just took advantage of the situation.

Still the look on his face when it eventually turned up was priceless. It went all the way through surprise, realisation, doubt and then resignation in less than a split second lol

I started painting one of the Harlies...now I remember why I never started the army...and why I never use white primer...

Hmmm...I wonder how much I could get for 20 4th ed., and 20 2nd ed. Harlies on Ebay...:cussing:
