Any GW dealers know if GW dropped the discount on LE items?

yes and Made to Order

wow, that is a big deal. So dealers (or stockists, I think they are called) only get a discount on regular items. What all items did GW remove the discount for and when did this happen?

What about bundle deals and the special stuff that comes out around Christmas time?

I'm not sure if it's totally gone, but it's certainly smaller than what they offer on normal lines (so basically it's not going to be worth a stores time to routinely sell this sort of stuff, especially if they want to discount too)

but stuff that is just a single run (eg Shadowspear) or time limited (like the Christmas bundles) are available for stores to buy at their normal margin (they just may not get as many as they ask for, especially if they're slow to get their orders in)

Wasn’t it the reason MiniWarGaming closed their store? I remember there being a video from a good few years ago. They cited GW’s policy on certain items as the reason they decided to close.

IIRC it was GW's online webstore policies. For a time GW disallowed retailers to offer GW products online; period.
