Granted, it's probably not going to be THAT cheap after factoring in exchange rates, but it's still something. I know Meeplemart in Canada sells forge world stuff for that discount (and are currently my only source for forge world since canadian exchance rates are even more crap as of this writing).
I would be very sketchy of that stuff, since forge world only sells through forge world. If they're getting it for less than forge world sells for, it's probably not legit.
^ This.
FW doesn't sell to retailers like
GW main does. I have never seen or heard of legit
FW being carried anywhere other than
FW site and the events they do. If someone is selling you
FW at 20% off the
FW site prices, either they like you enough to take a 20% loss on everything you buy or it's fake.
They come in the plastic bags Forge World ships in, the instructions and any certificates that a set might have. The resin is also the same kind of
FW resin. If it is fake, then it's near identical to the actual
FW product.
EDIT: The shop in question is Meeplemart if anyone wants to verify it. Granted, their stocks very wildly with
FW products, so I don't know if they are buying second hand and just reselling it.
