BREAKING NEWS _ Playmobil Hellas will accept orders for parts from collectors

[Bill Blackhurst]

We can only hope, & with any luck this will spread to other countries that don't have this valuable service!

[Wolf Knight]

This is a really great achivement for the Greek Playmobil Collectors!!!!

A big THANK YOU to Mrs Efraimidi for helping us so much in this endevour!!!

I am really happy our meetings and pressure finally payed off!!!

I am really anxious to put the new service to the test!!!

One point though, it would be even greater if they accepted payment by credit card or Paypal, but I guess one step at a time.... Since we must send payment to a German bank account, that means that payment will take a long time to reach that bank account. Last time that I bought a playmobil set from a german ebay seller who only accepted bank transfer as means of payment, that payment took almost a month to reach his bank account... so that means longer time receiving the items... But hey, we can't have it all... at once

good for you, Greek folks!

Congratulations. That's a fantastic achievement. Well done!

Great news for you all! I noticed that the whole attitude of PM towards collectors has improved recently. I sent the payment for an order a few days ago and got a message from UPS today saying they'd picked up the packet at PM.
They never did this before. I'm impressed.
BTW, congratulations George for a hard fought battle!
Cheers.

Do not worry about the bank transfer time because i 'm transfering 2-3 times per week and the average waiting(receiving) time is 1-2 days.I think the your seller was a little bit spooky!

No it happened to me before... and that time was a transfer to a UK account. Maybe it has to do with the bank...

May 1-2 banks are very slow but i think that the reason is the seller

It was a team effort not just mine. I did tell Playmobil Hellas though in my last big order which was a few days ago and followed another large order that If we dont get some short of DS service here for the few collectors we are in Greece i wont be getting much from Playmobil Hellas . Anbd I must have been a considerable % of their income in 2010 i think  !!!!!!

Please please Sir Wolf, Angelo email me your full names and a telephone number ASAP as Mrs Effraimidi wants me to give her a reference list of the Greek collectors , this service will only be limited to the few Greek collectors and its a personal favour to us not going through the proper purchase Playmobil procedures and channells. And any other Greek collector - playmo1989 etc please email me your names and a tel number if you also plan to get parts !!!!!!

[Giorginetto]

Please note that I passed to Mrs Effraimidi Wolf Knight and Grangel . If other Greek memebrs want to join this list please PM me your full name and a telephone number and I shall pass this info to Mrs Effraimidi.
