Hi, What do you think the best store to ship to australia, I need several GW and PP stuff
I need possibly free shipping and of course cheaper than retail price
and of course good store record

Thanks Dakka Dakkka

Maelstrom is good.

However as PP have had recent trouble with their model supply (not sure if it's resolved yet) you might have to wait or see if there's a FLGS that stocks them.

I live in perth, the only FLGS that i knew that stock PP product is tactic, well it wasn't an FLGS nobody plays anything except magic there, and it was more expensive me think
I am okay with buying PP model in the store though

just not GW
74 compared to 49 , on the nearly same USD to the AUD?

what is that 25% mark up?

Something like that. Some stuff you can get from Maelstrom for about 40-50% off the prices here, with free shipping if it costs over ten pounds which isn't hard when it comes to GW stuff.

One product is approximately ten pounds so yeah LOL, since i am an international student i would never know how that work ( Australian product having that kind of price)

Prices were set into bands when the aussie dollar was in the crapper.

It's done nothing but hurt (butthurt?) GW local's sales since the AUD came back to fighting weight - and they know it.

There MIGHT be a 'sale' of sorts at GDOz in October - but I think that's because they will just put the prices up again the week after.

And they seem to take advantage of people not knowing the product price?
No wonder people like to buy at online stores (I mean I did make several local purchase, it's fine ) But if this keeps going and going, I can't exactly justify the purchase at the GW local store

I haven't bought anything over $30 in a GW oz store in the last 5 years.
All of my bigger purchases go overseas.
My smaller ones go to local net dealers with discounts.
I don't have a local alternative gaming store - I did, but the guy was a fething skinhead neo-nazi looney, so I did not patronise his store.

Local net dealers?
can you tell me the site? Local means the shipping would be cheaper and faster and I want to know more stores basically

I live in the U.S. and can also confirm how good http://www.maelstromgames.co.uk/ are. and i'm shocked H.B.M.C. isn't on here praising them as well!
it's his fault i used them in the first place! free shipping, plus good prices = all good to me.

It also has free shipping?

what is the minimum price for it?

@Retrias:
I have used "Gamingdragon" www.gamingdragon.com.au
a few times. It's only 20% off GW retail, but it counts (and repeat purchases usually gain a +5% on top). Not AS good as from Maelstrom or Wayland, but a 2 day turnaround is a lot better than 1-2 weeks.

They're ex locals to the town where my club is, and they provide prize support to our tournaments as well, so we use them. They know they have to compete with OS dealers, so that's why they support several local clubs as well.

Ah I Think i did ordered couple of things from there before
everytime i want something fast i get it from there really

thanks chromedog

That is a thread with the same sort of questions. Basically, the cheapest, not including postage, turned out to be a store in the UK called Dark Sphere that some Aussie B&C members had ordered from in the past.

Hope that helps.

Yes Dark Sphere is good. But if you wait for Maelstrom games to give a discount it is better.
My experience:
Maelstrom(discounted)<Dark Sphere><Maelstrom><Any other online retailer i've seen.
But if you find cheaper please tell.
>

< this means cheaper yes?

So Maelstorm (discount) is cheaper than darksphere and so on?

I am going to have a look see on Darksphere. to see what is on their offer. Lol
I will inform everyone in this thread if I find anything cheaper for Aussies
