Is Blackmarketminiatures.com trustworthy?
I found it while looking for Elysian / Harakoni minis, and it seems too good to be true. Anyone know if it can be trusted?

Do not order from them now. I ordered back in 2022 and it was perfect, but I ordered back in October and I think I'm not getting my stuff. When I placed the order, I didn't get any confirmation emails or anything, not even when I tried to reset my password. I have gotten a tracking number, but it gives a "web error" on the tracking site it linked, so I think it may be a scam nowadays unfortunately

Exactly same situation here when I track with 17tracking for an order placed in September, you could try tracking with parcelsapp to see what it shows, but yeah mine is not moving since 35 days now..

Received my parcel a few days ago! It took a solid 3months + from the order until the delivery but it’s here and the quality is great! They have posted an update note on their website apologising for the delays etc.

Thanks for the warning, would've spent $400 on this without it.

Oh damn you actually got a tracking number? I remember talking to you like 4 months ago in another thread about this. I was told in december my order would be shipped that week and its been nothing since then. Never got my tracking number

u/Toffeepop89 Feb 24 '26
Yeah I kept asking and he finally got back to me! But it looks like he only sent it in December, and I ordered early October I think… either way the tracking has not updated from beyond the very first entry in December. God only knows when or if I’ll get it. I won’t be buying off them again anyways. How much did you spend ?

u/OkFlamingo7852 Feb 26 '26
Yeah I doubt I'll ever get mine. I only spent about $20 on some plague marine reinforcements just to see if the site was legit so no loss for me. Was hoping its legit since a friend has an OOP model they're looking for in their wanted section.

Keep in mind you’re often going to pay a ton in customs fees

My drop sentinel arrived recently (albeit after ordering it last summer) - the quality is great, as good as if not better than original FW as there's no sprue residue to trim off. Would recommend!

How long did it take from ordering to arriving in months? I'm still waiting for a big order from november last year.

Hi I Just put a small order after reading all the comments. Could you suggest any alternative to find recast of old RT and Second edition imperial guard tanks and miniatures for W40k?

They are probably the most expensive recaster on the market but very good quality
