Where you can buy Warmachine/Hordes

[Orlanth]

I have looked at all the above links.

None come close to matching the price of coolstuffinc.com

Has anyone got a good reason why I should not buy from them?

No specific reason for me apart from them being based in the US while i am in the UK. So shipping costs are probably quite high, delivery time and problems with returns/missing parts etc

had a quick look and for WM: escalation (softback) @ $22.99 shipping is between $16.20 and $50. So minimum is $39.19 which is approx £20.32 (based on exchange rate from uk post office website as of today).

Arcane miniatures sells the same book for £19.80 and free postage (2nd class).

Not saying its bad and some things may be cheaper but it would be a hassle for returns etc

In the UK now, we are selling Warmachine & Hordes at 20% off right now.

www.idgaming.co.uk

- we have pretty much everything in stock and can get anything else within a day or so!

Coolstuffinc. is actually based about 30 minutes from me, and I do some of my purchases there. They are mostly card games, but their WM and Hordes prices are second to none. I still buy things from my LGS that I play at, but when I need to save money, Coolstuff is where its at. They are very niec as well.

Thanks. I did some calculations on the pricning. As you pay dollar for pound even with shipping costs it ends up cheaper.

I will wait until after christmas then buy my Cygnar army from CoolStuffInc.

Naxeur, is there any talk of a price rise there?

I carry the complete WM/H, IK RPG and P3 lines at UK wargaming shows

Sorry 10% off UK prices is 10% rip off prices. I can get from the US the same number price, but in $ rather than £. Why UK stores are so expensive I dont know.

Also with the $ exchange rates being what they are and USPS box charges being very reasonable (far more so than UK parcel rates) you are fighting against a heavy margin for online trade. Ok your stuff is free but even allowing for the poastage rates US import is still way cheaper.

Privateer Press cites only one place in Belfast (Northern Ireland) that sells Privateer Press products and the website it links to isn't active any more. I've never heard of The Stack before and neither has yell.com apparently.

Does anyone know some brick and mortar shop(s) that sell Privateer Press models around here? I really like the Games Workshop here but I'd like a look at those Trollbloods.

I found buying from US eBay stores even with the shipping costs still work out cheaper than buying from UK stores.

But if I were to buy from UK I would use ID Gaming.

The only places I know in Ireland are around Dublin.

Being fed up with the generally poor service from online shops I decided to set up my own. Too many of these shops hide their postal, handling and 'extra' charges that you don't see until checkout. Too many have no stock and wait to make the minimum order with their distributor.

So my shop only sells what I have in stock and free UK/BFPO postage.

No.

In fact I just bought an Angelius, a box of Warmongers, and a Raek and it came to just under 70 bucks.

Still the same great prices.

That's a pity.
I wonder what that place they link to was. I hadn't heard of Magicmon before.

Their store isn't open until then end of the month, but the owner has some great offers coming up for their opening online.

BTW - They're the US Distributor for EBOB Minis

[Vladigar]

I don't see any Warmachine products on that site.

[Blarp]

And I doubt they sell enough to warrant them. Theres a reason GW are cutting running costs by £7,000,000!

Of course -- because no one buys their products anymore. Everyone's goin' Privateer!
Anyway, chaosorc is 25% off all GW and PP stuff.

Bar the occasional thing picked up in Travelling Man and Forbidden Planet in Newcastle I get all my Warmachine and Hordes stuff from WargamesWorkshop currently, though that postage can be a bit of a kick in the teeth at times. Having said that I have received everything I've bought from them the next day, or the day after if I'm shopping at night. I'm definitely going to try out Wargames Empires when they're back up again. As a student I like the idea of the massive discount they do.

Bit of advice, avoid Wargamingworld like the plague. Okay the prices are very good but I placed an order on July 17th (my birthday), and I haven't got a wiff of my order since. Their policy is to leave 28 days, its been over that now and they haven't kept to their policy of letting me know my order would take more than 7 days. They've taken the money out of my bank account and yet still my order is on the processing stage. Despite 2 e-mails and a 'contact us' inquiry I haven't heard anything, and this isn't the only instances of this happening, several of my friends have experienced the same problem recently.

As of recommendations I would suggest FORGE GAMES which was a brilliant service, but it seems the owner is taking a break from selling for a while. But I've also used Arcane Miniatures (but for confrontation) and I have no complaints from them so they seem like a good option. A gamer at my local club frequently uses Project Hydra and he seems happy with them, they have a nice deal that if you spend over £100 (I think that's the amount) you get a free box set.

Hope this helps

I would also second Forge Games. Great service and really knows about the product.
