Still no news with mine, either. They don't want to sell, do they. I have around 40 unfinished klickies for my shelf, all of them waiting for a missing feather, or a hat ecc.

What is a man to do? I am not going to go on ebay and pay 5 euro for a feather or an armguard  ::) Buying Lego Star Wars is what I'm doing with my pocket money this month.  ::) ::)

Lol.

There are only so many klickies that I am interested in, nowadays. I bought the complete pirates set (but not the island cause of space issues), and the space/stone age themes do not interest me that much. I could always build a small army with the new redcoats, but the only way to do it is through DS ... which brings me back to the old problem.

It's like they do not care about not selling. The word 'inertia' springs to mind.

I'm sure they don't like money. Unlike all the other companies in the Universe...

Before you give up: do you want me to try your list from here?

Did you ever get a confirmation that they got your order?
Did you send a mail to regular Customer Service in Germany telling them about the problem?

I got a confirmation from PM Malta telling me they would be forwarding my order to Germany. Some days before Christmas, that was.

I really hate emailing them again  ::) ::) ::)

I got my order today - I take back what I've said about PM  :)

Obviously, some things they didnt have in stock (the old stuff), but i'm still very happy with what I've got. One thing I didn't really like was that I was not informed about what was in stock after I placed my order, and what the price of what was, but considering that a bagful of parts and klickies came to just 40 euros (keeping in mind that nowadays that sort of money only gets you two or three medium-sized sets) i'm not complaining too much. I was particularly pleased that they still stock the hair ribbons from the 3665 princess/3627 musician. I was really after those. There was only one wrong part in the whole order, so I was lucky that way, too.

I'm glad to hear that everything turned out well in this transaction! Lately, USA DS has been answering parts inquiries faster than in the past, but receiving the actual order is still too slow. :(
  Forget about all of the other stuff,....all we need is the reintroduction of the 3526 Fire Engine!

Well it took me 4 months. Perhaps PM could work a bit more on the DS side of things - after all, it's still a source of revenue for the company, isn't it? AND it keeps the fans happy.
