HOW DOES IT WORK? (Spoiler mode activated for information condensation.)
Spoiler:
Here’s the rundown on how all of this works. There are four different type of offers that will be present from time to time. Each with their own description and procedure on how they are to be executed. The overall concept however is to simply serve deals straight to you via our website. Be sure to also check out our alternative access points so you can be informed at all times of our present and upcoming deals.
Green ‘ORIGINAL’ Gobbo Deals – Limited Time Offers
These are your traditional deals that have no set quantity available to the general public — except a threshold amount that will ‘unlock’ the deal for the collective buyout.
Example: Baneblades @ 35% off MSRP – Minimum 10 Buyers (in the world) – 24hour time limit
Red ‘FAST’ Gobbo Deals – Limited Quantity Offers
These are your untraditional deals that have a limited quantity available and are served as a ‘first-come-first-serve’ basis. These deals are *HOT* and they don’t last long! These deals are posted at sporadically RANDOM times during ANY time of the day (We can’t help it!) Not only do they pop-out at random times they may at times appear in different locations as well!
Possible Locations:
Blog Posts (On this website)
E-mail (Join our mailing list on the top right corner)
Social Media (Join on the top right corner)
Community Posts *Details Coming Soon*
Make sure you get subscribed at any of these possible venues as the deals in the Galaxy can open at any moment ;D
Blue ‘LUCKY’ Gobbo Deals – Contest, Events, Raffles & Giveaways
These posts come in a form of a contest, event, raffle, or giveaway usually with no barrier of entry.
These yellow tagged deals come from our sponsors and are usually exclusive to the Gobbos and their followers. These deals each vary from type, and details but be rest assured that we shall not bring anything less then spectactular!
————————————————————————————————————–
STAY TUNED. OUR FIRST DEAL(S) WILL BE LAUNCHED NEXT WEEK.
That’s all for now. Thanks for stopping by and checking out GalaxyGobbo.
Its time to explore the Galaxy some more!

Anyone want to talk about those 50% baneblades, please?
At Games Workshop, we believe that how you behave does matter. We believe this so strongly that we have written it down in the Games Workshop Book. There is a section in the book where we talk about the values we expect all staff to demonstrate in their working lives. These values are Lawyers, Guns and Money.

Ouze on GW: "I'd like to be like, hey baby, you're a freak but you just got too much crazy going on, and I don't hook up with bunny boilers. But then Necrons are going to come out, and I'm going to be like damn girl, and then next thing you know, it's angry sex time again.
It's complicated."

The Orks are the pinnacle of creation. For them, the great struggle is won. They have evolved a society which knows no stress or angst. Who are we to judge them? We Eldar who have failed, or the Humans, on the road to ruin in their turn? And why? Because we sought answers to questions that an Ork wouldn't even bother to ask! We see a culture that is strong and despise it as crude.

"Orkses never lost a battle. If we win we win, if we die we die fighting so it don't count. If we runs for it we don't die neither, cos we can come back for annuver go, see!"
I dig how in a setting where giant, muscled fungus men ride Mad Max cars and use their own teeth as currency, the concept of little engineering dudes with beards was considered a step too far down the aisle of silliness.
