The inevitable is near again this year , by the end of this month there will be another price adjustment.
For the ones not quitting but preparing , what are some of the items everyone is stocking up for their armies?
For me , Im Canadian , im torn between 3 things that i cant make up my mind about ( due to the weird pricing GW come up with )
a) Order from Canadian shop that still has the cheaper Tomb King Battalion
or
b) Order from The War Store that has better price for Special / Elite Units due to USA pricing
or
c) Order from Maelstrom with their 18% off , and better price for majority of the Core / Troop Unit pricing.
What items will you have ? xD

Nothing, really. I have way to much stuff left to paint anyway, and a panic purchase won´t really do anything but to spend money needlessly.
I´ll stop my GW purchases until I have finished painting my other GW stuff and have a few useable WarmaHordes armies.

I've just made my last GW purchase.
Grey Knight NDK.
My GK army is at 4000pts (and can borrow land raiders and dreadnoughts from my SM army if needed) and is finished (I have enough models to do a regular army with different unit choices. I have no intention of ever doing a pure "x unit" army (like purifiers or whatever), so it's fine by me.
My SM army has been done for a few years, as has my eldar. My IG is a work in progress, but I have ALL the units I need, I just have to build them.
I will not be starting another 40k army or any WHFB armies.

Nothing. I recently got 2 Sphinx and a box of snake surfers. I don't need any more kits for my existing armies, thankfully. If I could afford it I'd buy a whole Dark Eldar army but that won't be happening any time soon.

I was trying to check some of the prices on GW's website (compare to the price jump). Is anyone else having issue viewing their site? Half of the scripts on the site aren't running and products don't have a price (i.e. Imperial Guard Cadian Battleforce is showing basic information, and I had to google search to get to the page, since navigating GW's site is next to impossible for me atm... is anyone else having this issue?

It looks like their site was probably attacked. There's a thread about it going in the news section.

I want to get a box of Mandrakes. Don't play Dark Eldar, and I don't think I'd use a unit of these even if I did, but they're awesome figs and I've been wanting one. Lately I've decided it would make a good themed Skarlock for one of my Warmachine casters.
After that, I might get the new Necrons when they come out. We'll see.

I've needed 20 assault marines to complete my battle company for 2 years now, but see no pressing need to buy them. I can easily afford them, but considering how much 40k I play, in my mind, it is exceedingly bad value.

I love scott pilgrim references! lol
Anyway,
My last purchase will probably be some aegis defense lines for the autocannon bits (they look good on dreadnoughts, better than the cadian weapon team autocannons). I'm also thinking about purchasing another dreadnought or repainting the one I have for my space wolves to GKs colors. That particular dread proxies for bjorn anyway, and bjorn is a 'meh' character to me.
edit:
I also bought a GKs deal on ebay and a 3 stormraven pack on ebay too so those are part of my final purchases for a long time.
Also, I need some inquisitor proxies. Anyone have an idea of how to make some from IG kits?

Seriously?
!@#$ them. Don't buy anything, and let them feel some love for a quarter. I mean everyone. Just stop buying anything new and do the right thing when someone !@@$'s with you.
We should just call it and see how they think to justify that, because the B.S. flag is thrown on the play.
Seriously, the 400 lb gorrilla in the middle of the room needs to be addressed.
"How do you justify buying product from a company that has p!@#$'d in your face over the space of a month to the point of making themselves irrelevent? When, as a customer, are you going to do what hurts and stop entertaining thier B.S.?"
I see all these petitions, letters, and all that P's and Q's, but honestly, what do you really do that's going to get noticed?
You cut thier funding. !@#$ them, just stop buying.
When they have to start making the stone hard calls like the rest of us have been, they'll figure it out quick and stop trying to play games with the customer.
Quit giving them support, it's the only thing they understand.

I owe nothing to GW, but it would be remiss of me not to take part in the final Maelstrom sale that people of my country are allowed to take part in (feth you GW!).
So I will purchase a number of items - gap fill my 'Nids and Chaos with a few things I've been meaning to get for years but never got around to (Chaos Bikes, another pair of Carnifexes, the Chaos Temple terrain kit, etc.) plus a few new things that I simply refuse to pay Oz retail for (Bloodcrushers!).
It will be a big purchase, but it will be the last one, for Maelstrom's sake and for all the good work they've done over the years.

Making a large purchase, then probably nothing for a year or more.
Picking up via advance order:
4 Venoms
4 boxes of Scourges
3 Talos/Cronos
3 Razorwings (if they indeed do go to advance order before the price hike)
In order to mitigate some of the already high cost, I'll be ordering through Miniature Market for 25% off retail.

Sadly, I think I made it just the other day - I'd gone out and picked up the DE codex as a prelude to getting a few of the new DE kits that are going to be coming out/were released recently, only to come home and find out about the gakstorm that they're pulling. Haven't touched it since, and I'm tempted to return it. As tempted as I was to start a DE army, I can't see myself buying any more GW items, which is really a shame.

Already bought a bunch of stuff, but I'll probably do the last few purchases to complete the Krieg army I'm planning on doing all at once now, rather than waiting a few months for my last purchases. Essentially, just 2 more basilisks and a codex.
I've also recently bought 6 Chimeras (ebay), 4 Krieg squads, and a Manticore (maelstrom). Not sure if I'll be getting the above from Maelstrom yet, one of the LGS is having a fairly sweet deal right now, where if you buy two boxes, you get the second half-off.
Either way, all of this'll be my last purchases for tabletop gaming for the rest of the year, and possibly my last purchases from GW period. They're just getting too hard to keep up with lately.

I'm not sure if this price hike is hitting the UK, may have to go to the local GW and ask around, but if it does I will no longer be purchasing 'new in box' models from GW.
I will purchase from maelstrom/dark sphere, my last new purchases will probably be a box of savage orcs and some 40K ork boyz to make a mob of madboyz+wierdboy. Otherwise I have enough crap for my orks to keep me going for years, plus 1000pts of skaven to work through...
As for non-GW purchases, getting a rather sweet deal from a friend for a Dystopian Wars EotBS starter fleet and rulebook.
The gaming aspect of my hobby has really taken a hammering recently, and there are no FLGS within a decent range of my location (we have 3 GWs, but only independant retailer is ~1hr train ride). So I am probably just going to just start buying models I think are cool and painting them. I'm really loving the Warmahordes Minions models (particularly the Warhog!)

A couple boxes of black orcs and/or night goblins. The price hike is only hitting a few models in my newly budding orc army (not worrying about wolf riders yet), but enough is finally enough- that's it. Gonna trade/sell my Chosen of Chaos on bartertown (same name over there if you want to search for them) and just keep the monster chaos army I have for fun and my orcs and 40k armies. I was planning on starting a Necron army and/or an inquisition army depending on how the 'Cron book looked, but I can't pay these prices. I got into the game with a serious love for it, but I can't justify the price anymore. How is Malifaux as a company? One of my buddies and I were thinking about getting into it? Also, how strong are Mantic's rules?

Possibly another 'nid battleforce. I need to go through my "unbuilt on sprue" boxes and figure out how many gaunts I've actually got first. If I'm short, I'll take advantage of the Maelstrom offer and just get another battleforce as it'll probably work out cheaper all in. Mind you, the last thing I need are any more 'stealers...
Might also stick in a preorder for the DE battleforce and a bunch of wyches. Would like to get a wych cult built and painted by the end of the year.

Personally I don't need to justify my spending, I have no debt and spend on what I can afford.
I still buy petrol and still drive around in a car that does just 15 mpg. I still pay the recent 5% VAT hike on pretty much everything. I still pay for gas and electricity.
Quit giving them support, it's the only thing they understand.
Seriously, you want us to spoil our own entertainment in the million to one chance that a big company will care?
No I don't like the price hike. I may or may not buy from GW, I just buy what I like from what I can afford. But I'm personally not going to spite myself over this.

Well. I've done it. The final Maelstrom order. It's through. I put my thoughts on the current situation and some final thank you notes down in their little 'comment' section of the order process. Even got a thank you E-mail back from them. *awwwwww* Anyway, I ordered: 3 Bloodcrusher boxes 8 Chaos Bikers (I've been holding onto spare Berzerker parts to make Khornate bikers for nearly 2 years - it's time to make 'em!) 2 Possessed CSM boxes (I have 6 spare sets of wings, so now I can do a 10-man unit all with wings!) 1 Daemon Prince (always wanted one of the plastic ones) 1 Devastator Box 1 Temple of Skulls (always liked that terrain piece, so might as well get it now before it more than doubles in price) 2 Carnifexes 1 Trygon (to make into a Mawloc) And that's it. Combined with the Arvus Lighter I ordered the other week, that's me done with GW for the foreseeable future. May their contemptible and corrupt company burn to the ground. And another thanks to Maelstrom for years of dedicated service. We will miss you.

I have decided, however, that despite the price rises I will continue to buy only two items from GW, and that is PAINTS and BRUSHES, why? because I like GWs paints (particularly the foundations & metallics) and the brushes are of an acceptable quality for my skill level (there is no point in buying a windsor & newton when you can only do basic highlights, drybrushing and edge highlighting)

I will continue to purchase from GW, i don't have a horde of mini's although i could play with the orks and marines i have but i really want a DE force. However i will build that army a lot slower than i'd like. One good thing though with the FLGS that i go too, each purchase of anything from the store gets you points that leads to discounts so that helps. It'll be nice to buy my hordes minis and use the points for GW stuff or for anything for that matter.

I already made 2 purchases Friday, a Tomb Kings book and a Land Raider Crusader.
Only other thing I want to buy before the hike is a predator. I might also pick up 2 Cadian battleforces and maybe a valk or 3.
If I do purchase this it will all be from the FLGS. I may hold off on the valks and buy them online to save some money.
Also I will be picking up some more Cygnar, but that has nothing to do with the price hikes of GW, just helping the FLGS with getting more games going. Same reason why I am starting WHFB.

Well the timing for it could not have been worse, since I had just used the money I could spend on three rhinos which came in ( thanks Wayland).
I very well might not be able to get something before the month ends because there was almost no warning of this, the rumours had circulated just a few days after I had bought the rhinos and I didn't expect even GW to do such a stupid move.

I bought a Space Marine Battleforce before it goes up in price, it's been one of the best values for a while. Had a few pounds of cashback to spend before I'm restricted from buying from Maelstrom so I got it for about 30% off the US retail.
The only other kits I still need to flesh out my army aren't increasing in price, so I'm not sweating that just yet. May pick up a Predator before next weekend though.

So... I just ordered 2 cadian battleforces forces and 3 valks.
And I will pick up some other boxes at the same time.

I MIGHT buy 3 chaos bikers. As opposed to the predator, two battleforces, box of terminators, two terminator lord kits, land raider, daemonettes, raptors, two boxes of plague marines, direct order noise marine weapons kits, multiple rhinos, and abaddon model I had planned to gradually buy up over summer. Plus the traitor guard force I would've been working on next year. The UK price increase is nothing next to what the poor Aussies are being landed with, but with student loans just about covering my rent and only being able to work part-time, a 20% hike on my plastic men would sting a lot.
Goodbye to my Black Crusade apoc army plans - I'm finishing my Word Bearers warband (which thankfully I bought everything for last month) then giving my custom to Mantic, Gamezone, and Wyrd Miniatures. Their undead are much nicer and more gothic than GW's VC line, not to mention being more consistent in age (black knights, I'm looking at you).

A Manticore
A bunch of Vallejo Air paints to go with my new airbrush
And a bunch of Infinity stuff to make a Yu Jing Japanese Sectorial Army. Either to act as deathcult assassins for my GKs, or to (preferably, if I can get people into Infinity) function as a JSA army for Infinity.

I don't like to buy in bulk, as I know from experience that it will just sit in boxes for a year before I lose interest, sell and lost money on it. I prefer to paint at least half a unit before I order the next one.
But... I can no longer order from overseas (at a price that is not ridiculous) thanks to GW's new trade embargo, and I just haven't got the inclination to 'bulk buy', and the thought of giving any of my money to GW at the moment sickens me. So, I've ordered some bits and pieces of Infinity, a range I can continue to get overseas orders from at a reasonable price.

Just made my last purchase. Instead of 3 Chaos bikes (£21.60 direct from GW!) I ordered the entire Horus Heresy series so far (excluding audio books) - 16 novels, for less than £80, courtesy of Amazon. Know what's amazing? Out of the money I'd set aside to buy stuff for my CSM, I still have enough left to buy a troop box from every race Mantic currently produces. That or their starter set. Or a Warmahordes battle box.

I just bought the Vendetta and Hellhound my IG needed to round the army off to 1750pts. Also managed to pick up a 1500 drop-pod Marine army for £55 so that's my next project! =D

order is in... paid for.
Dropped the Vindicator in favour of a 4th Razorback kit though. Cant afford 2 Vindicators to make em viable and dont have the budget this month (tax time!) for another.

I'm still waiting for the official GW "How to Roll GW Dice" book to come out. I hope the price increase doesn't effect its release date any further.

Because on ebay there was a guy selling the turrets themselves for $6 i think , 5 of them too.
Then i noticed a trend that i doubt is a coincidence.
ALL ebay auctions that ships to domestic USA / UK only, have incredibly low final bid value.
And all ebay auctions that ships internationally usually goes to only 20-25% off final bid.
Which leads me to think how much we get ripped off.
