Title: TMP thread!
Post by: Leon on 03 December 2010, 02:58:28 AM
Best thread on TMP for a while: http://theminiaturespage.com/news/780025/ (http://theminiaturespage.com/news/780025/) and the comments are worth a read as well.

:D

I've no idea on the background to it?

Funny stuff, I think I broadly know the background to this one but don't wish to repeat it as I don't wish (indeed) to be sued (indeed) by a "practasing solicitor of law", even one with a yahoo email address.

Just as a bit of trivia it's an offence under section 22 of the 1974 solicitors act to misrepresent yourself as a solicitor, up to two years in the clink.

This reinforces my belief that if one is purchasing unpainted lead they should either:
1. purchase directly from the manufacturer
2. purchase from an established retailer
3. purchase only if the items are in their original packaging

Seems like this chap is a cad and a bounder of the worst sort.

May he receive what he gives tenfold.

If nothing else we are well-warned to avoid dealings with this rum cove.
