Re: how much, you say!!!!
That pretty much wipes out the GW price rise in one fell swoop. Well done (for once) market forces!

Re: how much, you say!!!!
well, it would if we could actually pay for GW products in pounds, but nae, they have boxed us in nicely by making it impossible for the fine mini selling companies in the UK to send us stuff. It's yen or nuffink, they say, and lots of em, too, if you please.

Or just buy direct from GW UK. At 117 to the pound and no VAT that's still amazingly good!

Re: how much, you say!!!!
On the day GW lower Japanese (and australian/kiwi, for that matter) prices such that they are in the same ballpark as the actual exchange rate, I will consider buying from them direct. Until then I intend to keep my purchases to a minimum, and even then only buy from 3rd party stockists in order to spread the financial gains made.

Re: how much, you say!!!!
Can we buy direct from GW UK even if we are within GW Japans jurisdiction?

Re: how much, you say!!!!
Their shipping embargo to stop firms undercutting their international shops does not prevent them from undercutting themselves.
For those who care, Maelstrom, Wayland et al still ship the following overseas:
Warmachine,
Hordes,
Malifaux,
Flames of War,
Victrix,
Warlord,
Perry Miniatures,
Dust Tactics,
Wargames Factory,
McVey Studios
And a great many more.
