Hi there,

It's February and it's been snowing here at the Eye of the Storm, and us lot at Maelstrom Games (www.maelstromgames.co.uk) would like to ensure you have an excuse to stay indoors and get some gaming or painting done by giving you a cracking 17.5% off UK RRP voucher that will last while the weather's bad!


YOUR SNOWY VOUCHER
----------------------------------------------------------
Your 15% off UK RRP discount voucher ends on Monday the 22nd of February 2010 at midnight (GMT), and it's a great chance to grab yourself all those lovely new ranges we've brought in over the past few months since our expansion as well as all your old favourites! It will work on all the items within our webstore, but:

- not on any Flames of War items
- not on any Seeds of War items
- not on any Games Workshop Direct items
- and additionally, not on anything within our eBay store.

Apart from the above, the voucher will work on pre-orders and, crucially, you'll still earn Moneyback - although tiered discounts are disabled when using a voucher of course.

Your voucher code is: SNOW-STORM

To use this voucher simply register on the webstore, www.maelstromgames.co.uk (if you haven't already), copy and paste the code into the appropriate field in your basket when you have selected the items you want, press 'REDEEM', and the webstore will do the rest. You are not limited to one purchase and, indeed, we would ask you to recommend us to your friends with this voucher!

Remember though that this voucher is intended for the webstore only - it does not apply to any of our auctions or shop inventory items on eBay.

Happy Ordering!

-not on any Games Workshop Direct items.

Is advanced order item (e.g. chimera) a "Direct item"?

Dang, I just ordered from Maelstrom Games only two days ago.

Oh well, another purchase in the near future is inevitable anyway.

These vouchers annoy me as all I ever buy from them is flames of war stuff which never counts :(

I really like Maelstrom, but I'm not shopping there anymore until they do something about their shipping delay issues. Two weeks and a half to pack my order, and then three more days to ship. So nearly three weeks for items that were in stock or in stock two days later. I really like Maelstrom, but all of my orders have suffered from the same problem. Hopefully they change that because since last year I was a happy customer.

No. Just the special models you usually don't find in the stores.

I'm such a noob. It is the second time that I place an order and a few days later I get a mail promoting a new voucher.

Owned :(

Someday, I swear, I'll be able to suspect when they are going to start a promotion and then make it worth!

So is it 15% or 17.5% off? My math is fuzzy...

The voucher doesn't work for me.

Works for me. It's just 15%

I didn't copy paste it.
Doesn't matter it works in Firefox... (I was using Opera) Weird.

Am I the only one who thinks that these "vouchers" are like this:
1) 15% off the REAL SHOP PRICE (for example, 30 euros for Space Marine squad)
2) THEN they take their usual %-amount off.

Because when I use them, for example in 50 euros order (just tested) with a 15% vouche I get only 2 euros discount, when it should be about 7,5 euros if it was 15% off the Maelstrom prices.
Of course, free money is free money, but the "15%-off-voucher" isn't what it is.

It's 15% of standard price, not a further 15% off.

well it kinda should be 15% off MAELSTROMS standard prices (otherwise they should just put - extra 5% off! - ), but i'm not complaining.

Bugger, this is twice now that Ive ordered something from Maelstrom, only for them to have this kinda voucher on. Twice in as many months infact. Ugh XD

Even though the email can't make up it's mind between 15% and 17.5% discount, the one thing it is very clear about is that this is a discount against UK RRP - and standard Maelstrom prices are fairly clearly marked as being at a discount from that RRP.

Meh. I looked and they didn't have the items in stock I needed. Oh well.

Decided to get a Vindicator, one of those models that's been on my list for a long time now.

Again, I wouldn't be too surprised if Maelstrom extended this sale for another week or two in lieu of Battle Missions.

Bah. I am still waiting for my Beastmen order to get dispatched. It has now been a week since official release date and three and a half weeks since I placed the order.

I hope so, Brook - they've managed to end it the day before my pay day :(

It's something they always do.
