Worth a look, however I doubt you'll find anything. Unlike GW, to the best of my knowledge FW doesn't offer large discounts on "bulk" orders or to "sister" stores, etc.

Feel free to google search to your heart's content. The best you can do from FW is order a good bit and get free shipping.
They don't need to give discounts to move their product, so they don't.

There are places you can find Forgeworld stuff cheap, but it's all illegal recasters, largely from China. Best thing you can do is look around on Bartertown, the Swap Shop here on Dakka, or for the genuine article on eBay.

Have a look on eBay. You can often find re-sellers from the Russian Federation or China who are selling FW stuff comparatively cheaply.

"Did you ever notice how in the Bible, when ever God needed to punish someone, or make an example, or whenever God needed a killing, he sent an angel? Did you ever wonder what a creature like that must be like? A whole existence spent praising your God, but always with one wing dipped in blood. Would you ever really want to see an angel?" |

Because they are recasts, not real models. Besides the ethical issue of buying recasts, the recasts tend to be garbage.

There is no such thing as a hobby without politics. "Leave politics at the door" is itself a political statement, an endorsement of the status quo and an attempt to silence dissenting voices. |

And have zero customer service.
Sprue missing? Piece too warped to fix?
Sorry. We have no idea what you're talking about. We don't speak English.

Sums it up. However I've encountered the recasters in other markets that are worried about their seller rating and will work with you.
Something tells me that in this case I doubt they would.
We buy alot, alot of beads/jewelry stuff from china/taiwan. Where as it may not be "recasts" like a titan, it is a supremely cheap alternative to buying them from a store.
