Right, I am starting to get really, really p'eed off. I ordered a couple of Khandish Chariots from ebay the other day, as well as a couple of other blisters, paid immediately, waited 10 days for first class post. Nothing. Emailed the seller who gave me some line about them being discontinued to retail, and offered me a refund or alternative minis to the same or slightly higher value. Fair enough, but why wait 10 days until I contact them to let me know? The two Chariots are now 18 Haradrim Raiders... Found another ebay store, this had 23 Chariots in stock... Ordered 3. Got full refund and email saying, sorry we just happened to sell out of these just before you placed your order... Highly unlikely, as the only previous purchase was on Jan 26th for 1... Sent them a rather snippy reply, as they claim to have all listed models in stock, and was told that if I want to order from them in future I'd get a 5% discount. Did some more searching. Found an online store that had the Chariots and the King on Chariot in stock. Again, claimed that they had all models on premises to reflect actual stock level on site. Ordered 2 Chariots and the King. Went to bed. Email from them tonight, sorry, these are out of stock, do you want something else, or a refund... Man, that's now 7 Chariots and a King in Chariot that I've ordered and won't actually get a single friggin' one. Looks like I'm going to have to go through GW Direct unless anyone can locate some cheaper ones for me.

Ebay has a few... Here's one: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/LOTR-KHANDISH-CHARIOTEER-BRAND-NEW-AND-SEALED_W0QQitemZ250366156444QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Toys_Wargames_RL?hash=item250366156444&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A1688%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C39%3A1%7C240%3A1318 And here's a search-page on them... http://toys.shop.ebay.co.uk/items/_W0QQ_dmptZUKQ5fToysQ5fWargamesQ5fRL?_nkw=khandish&_sacat=31398&_fromfsb=&_trksid=m270.l1313&_odkw=hand&_osacat=31398 One of those sellers has around 10 in stock at 13.30 pounds.. (project.hydra I believe) but I gues sit's best to contact him first since the pic he's showing is not a Khandish charioteer but old ugly Warhammer Chaos Ogres...)

Project Hydra was the first place I ordered them from... Cheers though.

Dorth has a horrible thought: the Khandish chariot hordes led by Middle-earth's answer to Boudicea, in a pink off-the-shoulder dress.... bound to cause Terror.

John I'm checking with a game store I know here. He has them on his list, but he'll let me know how many he has in hand. Are you looking for 7?

Heh, I'm know I'm a bit crazy, but no, not 7. It just so happenend that I've actual ordered 7 and every single one has been OOS... Thanks very much for checking btw. I reckon I need 2 minimum, plus the King. Although a 3rd would be nice. Can you PM with your results and hopefully we can sort something out? Cheers dude, J

I could send you mine for free... .... on photo, so you can work with folded cards with chariots on, like we used to get in the early years with the Battle Games in Middle Eart mags..

Bart, your generosity knows no bounds... Although I do believe that we've come a long way since then.

If I knew you indented a Shakespearean death scene, I would have never gotten you though charioteers.
