Subject: Need a cheap australian vendor.

Hi guys, I need to find a cheap place to get 40k. hopefully, mailorder.
anyway, what I need is:
Space marine devastator
Librarian w/ plasma pistol.
SM captain
1 Battle force kit
1 assault squad
1 razorback
1 heavy weapon turret. [like the razorbacks weapons, but to convert the SM BF rhino.]
anyway, this could cost me around 400 dollars from Gee-dubbya.
I've looked at wayland games, and it'd be about 175 dollars, Assumeing for fluctuation.
anyway, I'm just curious.
Is there any australian Mail-order discount 40k shop?

No.
Australia has discounted Australian prices, and Australian prices are 40%-50% higher than the UK.
So just order from Weyland or Maelstrom.

I'd say Maelstrom, or check out Ebay for some used minis if so inclined (Maelstrom also does auctions for used stuff on Ebay)
*Edit* Should mention, if you desperately need the stuff in like 2 weeks, maelstrom can be a bit risky, I have had to wait 3 weeks to a month on a couple of things when they get busy during their sales.

Maelstrom varies as much as Wayland do. I recently did a Maelstrom order that took 4 days from order to shipped, and then another 3 in transit. The order before that was 3 weeks from order to shipped, with a week in transit.
And then there's Antenociti's Workshop, who got something to me from the UK in 48 hours... that was impressive.
Either one works, although for us Aussies Maelstrom may work out cheaper in some areas as they do not charge for shipping. But compare prices before you order.

probably not.
Maelstrom is about $45 dollars more expensive.

I buy from Ebay stores in America due to the fact their dollar is down. I can buy stuff at about 30% cheaper including postage at a store called RED DRAGON GAMES. So I recommend looking there  .
Heres the link: http://stores.ebay.com.au/store=703099571

What's the breakdown?
[EDIT]: Just put the order together at both places (Commander, Librarian, Dev Box, Assault Squad Box, Razorback, Battleforce) and there's a £3.51 price difference between Wayland and Maelstrom. Not $45.

If you must order something directly from GW, at least order it from GWUK. The price discount is still huge, even if they do take 3 weeks to arrive (after shipping). Automatically Appended Next Post: Captain Solon wrote:Lists changed. thats the result at Aus to 1.72.
And as I said, have you got a breakdown that shows the $45 difference?

Koala Bears never fall, the instant they leave the tree they go through a complete metamorphisis into the dreaded drop bears, and eat your face off.
