Re: What's it all mean?

Well, according to some of the miniatures newsgroup Paul Perry is either
the
Devil or Satan. Some are bothered by his Anti-GW at all costs stance and
his
ability to jump into a flame war and make a total *ss of himself. He has
been caught sock-puppetting to support his point
    He started up Gamers Against Unethical Companies (GAUC) - but then
dropped it for a myriad of excuses when he had to do more than appoint
officers. He at one time supported Atlantis Games/Enigma - and then
"faked"
a personal email as a post that reamed their newest product as little
more
than a GW rip-off.
    Still, most people that have done business with him across the
newsgroups have reported good results - if a bit slow. He admits to
screwing
up a couple of orders, but he said he made good on all of them - and
there
are enough testimonials to back him .
    This can all be had by doing a DejaNews search on the miniatures
group -
or live through it. As far as I know he has never produced a line of
miniatures - but he has run his own gaming store (until it went under)
and
recently he has been hammering the newsgroup with his sale on closeout
merchandise from other stores (in they gray spam/individual sale area).

Personally, I would hate to see him get his hands on the molds because
his
online presence definitely stinks of someone a few suits short of a full
deck - but as long as he continues on his medication and keeps his
business
separate from himself things should continue on as normal (or some close
proximity).
    Plus I am sure that Sir John will have some method in the contract
allowing him to regain control of the US molds if things hit the toilet.
