Im collecting the new CSM but I cant stand the new prices (£45 for one model!), so which independent stockist is the most reliable/cheap?

Well the most reliable source is going to be GW itself (but obviously not cheap):
sadly cheap and reliable do not go together too often
For UK sites i've experice with
Wayland games may be worth a look, previously they've been hit an miss due to not having realtime stock levels but the new website is said to fix this
Firestorm games have been good but not stunningly cheap
Total Wargamer is cheap but I've known a fair few folk with issues with them
Maelstrom used to be good, but appear to be going down the pan so I'd avoid them
My current favorite site doesn't do GW stuff, but if you're into other games check out arcane miniatures

Second 4TK, best service I have had from a company in a long time, they even arranged same day delivery for me as I am a good 35 miles away but one of their regulars that go to their gaming nights is local to me, dropped off a order the same night which was a friday as guranteed saturday delivery was going to be 35quid or something stupid, got it for less then half that price. They also let me collect the dark vegeance box sets the day of release......, best prices as well that I have found, a lot is the same price as Waylands and some of the products are cheaper, they are also very quick at replying to emails

You shouldn't say things like that in public markymark, those ad the kinds of actions that get a company banned by GW.

I'll second both 4tk gaming and trolltrader. I've been using them both for a long time now, and the service from both is outstanding. 4tk especially, i've bought a lot off the guy, back from when he was just an ebay seller and everything i've ever had has been at great prices and very quickly delivered.
I used to use maelstrom a lot, but now that's looking to be out, i've given Wayland a try (To buy dark vengeance) and although it took a week to deliver (Said in stock on the site), the price was good and I was in no rush. Hopefully the live stock levels will fix this anyway,

I've recently purchased from and been happy with Firestorm games, Wayland and The Troll Trader. Obviously I haven't bought GW from any of them, but there you go...

I use this a lot, the discounts are good and the owner couldn't be nicer if you need to get in touch with him. I managed to get the Limited Edition Dark Vengeance for £50. You won't get everything on here, but you'll get most of the plastics.

Good old Dark Sphere used to be great but aren't doing 40k anymore..
I've used Wayland with no issue, but keep going back to

Their service has been good and they offer 25% off most plastic kits, which is getting harder to find.

Mythreal are still continuing their 30% off sale until the end of october so that might be worth a look too.
