Gravity Colours Advice

Post by kiwigav »

Not sure what to do here. It looks like I am one that has lost out to the Gravity Colors troubles. In April 2017 I ordered about $80-$90 NZD of stuff from them, mostly colour and masks for Repsol Honda build. After 2 atempts of sending to me, I still havent got my purchase over 12 months later. :wtf:

Up until now I have had reponses to my emails from Matt but all of a sudden silence. Looking like its a Write Off!!. This is alot of money to me and has taken some time to save that money as I dont have much disposable income for my hobby.

I like the paints and they are a dream to use, but I cant afford to take risks ordering from them. Will it take a social media backlash for them to wake up thier act. I have odered stuff from other US supliers and had the order at my door within 14 days, that included some Zero Paints from a US Hobby suplier.

Buyer b ware Id say. Id love to get a reponse from them for my money back or something. It really has sucked the modelling mojo out of me. Hope to build again soon. :ooops:

Sorry about such a gloomy post friends
Cheers Gav

On The Bench OK where do I start :wtf:

Cheers Paul, I really miss all the ISM stuff. I plan to ease back into things & will try to catch Live show more often to get enthused again. Repsol Honda build was going to be for my Father with Dementia

Do the Pay pal dispute ASAP
The bugger just ignores old orders otherwise and deals in broken promises
Wish we spoke earlier about this, could have got your dispute moving sooner

AS year though might be a long bow to draw. I give the sellers 75 days then I want my money back. :(
Listen and appear wise

Sorry to hear that, I'd try to dispute the charges and see what happens.
