Who want´s it ? SOLD !

Gentlemen,
I owe this thread a bit of time to recap what just happened on a PC...this happened a lot faster than I expected, so I want to review what we just got into on a bigger screen. More to follow in about 12 hours.

I just checked the Euro to Dollar rate. I was really shocked to see this isn't at all what I expected. I thought it was going to be cost prohibitive.

Thanks GB, we will square up shortly.

Thanks Bob D, we will square up shortly.

I forgot to mention ,
all these parts was given to me from the Widow of a passed CL Buddy.
All the money will go back to the Widow.

"DHL Parcel pick-up Service" went successfully.

Hi Peter,

Thanks so much for the effort you've expended sending parts this way. I wanted to make sure I knew to call Peter, well, Peter. That is a bit more personal than GB.
Are you also on StuntHanger or RCGroups? I thought I saw something on one of them last week that seemed to be you.

Do you do PayPal? This way I can cover your price and expense of delivery. It will do the $$ to Euro conversion, I believe. I will check on that shortly.

For Peter and Bob Dickerson,
I suggest that I pay Peter for the lot he sent, and then Bob can pay me his piece.  That way we minimize the cross-payments and piecing together the different directions the parts will go.

If you are both good with this, then we can take this to completion via email. I don't want to tie up valuable PM space here (Inbox space is a valuable commodity), and email can be a three-way as we work the financial details out.

What say you, gentlemen?

That´s alright with me.
PMed you more details , e-mail etc. .

Thanks
Peter

Sounds good to me, Jim, and I appreciate the effort.
Thanks,
Bob

Gents,
Just an update...still waiting. Sigh!

Is Bob still waiting?

Me? I haven't heard anything. Got a .15 needle and
valve body from peterparisi today. Still one the hunt.

Ron,
The whole enchilada was to come to me, and then I was to forward the venturi to Bob. I did text him a week or few ago just to say "nothing here yet."

I told Bob I would shoulder the buying and getting here, and then once here he could reimburse for the part, and pay getting to him. I figured no sense in both of us being out if this went bad.

When Peter and I were working out arrangements, I noted it was about 10 hours between responses. I think timing was just because of time differences, and personal responsibilities on either side of the clock.

There isn't anything for Peter to do so ce he shipped. Now it is just a waiting game for the slow boat from Chin, er, Germany.

I was researching my PMs for something else when I decided to see how long ago Peter sent it. It has been something like nine or eleven weeks.

Peter, is there any chance you have a tracking number?

Someone once told me "don't take chances you can't afford to lose." I think of that each time I PayPal payment to a "friend." I also try to keep RCGroups/StuntHanger transactions under a certainly limit unless the seller indicates wanting either extra funds to cover his loss on a commercial PP transaction, or that the seller wants it for verified mailing address. I understand that...who wants to sell something for $15 and $5 shipping just to let PP take away a couple of dollars?

So I sit patiently waiting on the goodies.

but Covid slows it down immensely.
Because Covid , DHL ONLY OFFERS Seaways , 30 days and looonger.
Could be stuck at US Customs ?.
If the parcel wont show up by the end of February ,
I will send FULL REFUND via Paypal , my promise , my word.
After this , I only can declare its LOST on Seaways.
SORRY FRIENDS but Covid kicks my .ss BIG TIME.

Tracking is RM661471720DE

Best Regards

btw
I have send K&B engine parts to Motorman from Stunt Hangar Forum but "NO NEWS" so far.
I know its a (covid) shame but cant change it.

I purchased an Enya (.049-II) from a guy (off *Bay -- seller lives in South Africa) back in November 4th,2020 and received it the 11th of January.
I'm still waiting on another Enya (.06-II) from Germany (seller lives in Frankfurt) that I also purchased from *Bay and that was purchased November 29,2020.



Some reason, the customs ticket has that it went to Great Britain?



Here is photos of the Enya 049 -- Before and after cleaning





Cleaned:




Hoping the Enya .06-II will be delivered in the next week or so?
Here is the photo of the Enya .06 engine from *Bay sale.

Mike, from one Enya lover to another, you have my admiration. I have got them from France, Australia, and New Zealand, it just takes patience.

Well Bob,
You will be really inspired by the three Enya's that I am getting from Japan.
These engines are something to really collect, they have never been run and they were built over 40 years ago.
I was advised by the current (now previous) owner to get replacement gaskets and other items needed to get them working.
They have been sitting for so long in the original oil preservative, that the engine are stuck and will not turn.

Just a quick update...the package from Germany arrived today. An email has been sent to Bob and Peter to let them know.

Bob, I need to review what our arrangement was for the venturi.

Peter, thank you so much!
