this is to do with mail order's.

well on friday i went into my local games workshop, because i only have 15 blunderbusses i decided to order another 15. the guy said on the phone that they are out of stock, SHOCKED!!!! i was due to the news i heard here that they were not replemishing the bull centaur legs, but then the guy at gw said that they are moving things around and now all gamesworkshop products on mail order will be made on demand,
he said all models will take 14 days roughly to get your order but they are able to go far back in catalogs, further than before.
then of course i came out with the question will they be more chaos dwarfs in mail order than blunderbusses and bull centaurs, the guy on the phone said, "unless the molds are broken then i dont see why not, i know by fact that the command groups and metal axemen are not broken we might see these pop up somewhere". then he hinted at the £50 vault packages.

vault packages are sets of old oop miniture that cant be bought but are sold for a rather expensive price, 20 forest goblins for £50?! well i guess making them on demand kills the oop bit.

i hope this happens,

this sounds like good news

getting our hands on OOP minis will be great, and it certainly should drive down ebay prices on rare minis.

i was thinking the same thing, if they can get the axemen and maybe hobgoblins in mail order we will see new chaos dwarf players popping up, this isnt huge news but hopefully this spells good news to come

Wow this could be the death knell for the vultures on vultureBay, such as the ever so fun SWSNBN. Now I should talk to them about that chaos dwarf juggernaut...

i hate SWSNBN shes sells cd's for such a stupid price, but iamhobgoblin isnt far behind

iamahobgoblin actually has the best of intentions; execution of said idea is the issue. Unlike SWSNBN, she is apparently trying to put her kid(s) through college on our hard earned cash, to which I say (borrowing the English term) 'b*ll*cks'!

yea i know i was eyeing up iamhobgoblins bull centaur banner but its alittle rich for my blood, so im just in a bad mood at the moment, love his armies though

Its the old "do the ends justify the means" thing.  Not when the ends involve screwing me over!

This sounds like great news (you know the mail order thing at the top of the page), you would think it means the end of extortionate prices but then again we are talking about Games Workshop.
I will definetly be keeping an eye on this situation, Thanks for the heads up gIL^

tbh their new policy on mail order is so much more efficiant but more costly, i think they are trying to do a fan service for older players so they can field older armies such as dogs of way and of course chaos dwarfs, but now the question is will the stock holder and board stand to lose profits or will they charge alittle more for the service they will produce?

in my opinion i think they will charge extra so buy everything you need while these changes are happening, best of both worlds.

i hope this helps, beat VultureBay

i know its not a new practice but its a brand new effort for gamesworkshop

ok no problem's, 3 replys in 1 min? does this count as spamming?

CDO unites linguistic cultures from around the world! You could try cockney rhyming slang next Wilhelm, such classics as trouble and strife = Wife and James Blunt = ...

Do you ave James Blunt in America Wilmark, or have you been spared that dubious pleasure?

Believ me your lucky to be spared Mr. Blunt, he lives up to his own name and the reputation of the household cavalry, thats all I'll say. Poor you to have missed out on Blackadder growing up though

James Blunt is indeed in America, although you are spared him if you only listen to certain radio stations.  Natasha beddingfield is also surprisingly popular.  Some days you can't get away from British music, Kaiser Chiefs, kooks, Franz ferdinand, Gorillaz, they are all pretty popular although not many people know they are british.

america have musicians?, i thought it was only the uk and finland that had them

Please try to keep to the topic I'd like to know more people's opinions on the new method of how mail order works. In fact, can anyone quote a price for the axemen etc that are being reproduced then?

There'll probabllybe some kinda notice in WD, could anyone who sees it please post it for those who don't buy it anymore?

would be much appreciated
