With only 2 more Saturdays left before March the 6th I was hoping to see a more detailed list of the new prices.

Being in Australia and having avoided the general price increase this same time last year I'm worried about what 'down under' gets this time around. As in a 6% increase or more.

I'm having trouble finding a Aus list as my local independent store closes down this weekend forever.

I understand in the USA that GW backpedaled a bit on their leaked price increases and made them closer to the originally stated 6%. That's better but still was not a good look and sent warning bells off everywhere around the world I think.

Did the UK get a detailed list yet other than a general 6% increase on most things?

I'm more interested in Starter sets and Blood Bowl at this point. Unfortunately quite a few things I'm interested in on the GW site are out of stock and I doubt they'll be restocked before the price rise.

Did the UK list not get posted yet?

Here it is

Must see if Chaos Cards have a Scorpius in stock this afternoon!

I expect the price increase in Aus to be brutal.

I always lament over how big this hobby could be if GW was growth focused.

I expected that list to be much longer. Am I missing half of it?

Should have 829 items.

Did they release the US list? I might have to buy something before the hike.

Probably not as I'm pretty far removed from GW these days (enjoying wildly better games) but I still pick up a thing or two that catches my fancy (mostly Warcry) for fantasy gaming.

They did, and I posted a nice spreadsheet earlier in the thread that adds info like delta increase, filters, and sorting

Sorting delta z-a on that spreadsheet is useful to me, ty.

Thank you, really great work. Sorry I didn't spot earlier in the thread.

Has it been said if the price increase will also affect mail only units? I'm just curious as to whether I need to grab some stuff now or I can wait for a more convenient time.

Id suggest waiting to order if it’s mail only.

I don't mean to be a pedant however the %Delta appears to be calculated incorrectly. It should be the price delta divided by the old price. For example all the items that have gone from $45 to $50 are showing with a 10% change, but this is really an 11.11% increase.

Found an interesting post on Reddit with some take aways from the UK pricelist. https://www.reddit.com/r/Warhammer/comments/11ap7jr/takeaways_from_the_new_price_list_in_gbp/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3

Thank you, I've amended it. My want to be helpful is overshadowed only by my lack of understanding of math

My favourite part of the new price list -

10 Intercessors $60
5 DC intercessors $55

Ah i see, GW thinking their custommers are made of stupid once more.

Not that they are wrong on most occaisions.

We get paid our yearly bonuses on Monday, just a week shy of the increase.

Time to get all the things I put off because they "weren't going anywhere".

Good idea, grab what you can

Don't forget spray paints go up in price too!



Btw Thank you to the guys who posted those lists for both the USA and the UK, it helped give an idea what to expect here. Well hopefully an idea that is.

Well I'm not buying at their higher prices, so...

Don't reward GW for raising prices by not purchasing things you want before the price increases? I'm having problems following this logic

If you spend more than you would otherwise have because the price rise is coming, you still spend more on GW in total. From GW's perspective, an actual sale 'in hand' at lower prices now is better than a maybe-sale in six or nine months at higher prices.

Again?! It seems like just yesterday I lived in Alabama and got them for $17 a can at the GW store. Now they're $22-30 and going up more. I think it's finally time for me to find a cheaper alternative. I was always willing to pay extra for the better stuff but at this point it's like 5x more than the Krylon camo I use on terrain which is 90% as good.

People are choosing to spend more than they normally would today, to buy things that they were going to own at some point in the future anyway. They are in total spending LESS on GW products by buying before the prices rise rather than buying after they rise.

So they are buying the same number of models, just at a time before the prices go up. Thus GW gets some money earlier, but less overall and the customer gets a glut of models in one go instead of spread out; but they spend less overall


This is neither rewarding nor punishing GW for the price rise. It's exactly what GW would expect of the market when they announce a price rise. It's the same as when something is announced as going out of production. Sales of that model will jump up like crazy.



The only punishment for a price rise would be a significant percentage of GW customers ceasing all (or most) of their GW spending and for a prolonged time (one week isn't going to cut it).

I thought about it, and then decided that I don't want to spend any money in GW stuff before the price rise. If anything I was interested in is too expensive after the price raise, well, then I wasn't that interested anyway.

Which is quite probably what will happen, but as I have too much unpainted GW stuff anyways, I don't see it as much of a loss.

Indeed. People buying the things that they had planned to get, but just a bit earlier, to avoid the extra price rise percentage is the clever thing to do.

Yesterday at a GW store, I confess that I was tempted to get some kits for the sake of it just to avoid the rise, but then it occurred to me that this was not my original plan ( which was to get the anniversary Minis which was inside my budget of £25). So I hold my ground.

Does this mean I will get them in the future but just more expensive? No clue. Depends how much I need them then.
I had £100 to burn yesterday if I wanted to, but then again I looked at full retail prices and Meh! (even with loads of free anniversary gifts available like coins and badges which I don't care about)...
I guess you could say GW "lost" sales from me this time around, I just have no interest to go out of my way/budget no matter what GW does.
its a simple life

Also?

In a genuinely nice way?

Nobody cares if you can’t or can’t, will or won’t, pay a given price for a given thing.

I do feel bad for folks who are priced out, or feel priced out.

But don’t ever tell the next person what the depth of their pocket should be. It’s a futile task. Always has been, always will be.

Indeed the only time I’ve gave a flying proverbial about another hobbyist’s spending was when a former flat mate stiffed me on their share of the rent, whilst holding a bag of new models.

Yeah. People can spend money on whatever they like. If it's legal it's none of my business unless it personally affects me.
