Another GW price increase?!?!?! - manrogue - 23-05-2012 Wondering if anyone can confirm this as GW site is blocked on work comp, but i'm hearing that there is another price increase coming on 28th may? RE: Another GW price increase?!?!?! - Stuart - 23-05-2012 Yep, from http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/content/article.jsp?aId=16600002a Quote:This month we will be increasing the price of some of our products. This price change will take effect from May 28th. No other details as yet. Sure I read something last night about price increases to further models being released in Finecast, but can't find it now. RE: Another GW price increase?!?!?! - Stuart - 23-05-2012 There seems to be a lot of detail on GW pricing on this site: http://chimpsinspace.com/games-workshop-price-rises-12th-may-2012/ RE: Another GW price increase?!?!?! - manrogue - 23-05-2012 Thats blocked as well, will have to have a look at home later. RE: Another GW price increase?!?!?! - Gareth - 23-05-2012 Must be may. Oh wait it is. Every year without fail, since going public, one price rise. And that's why I don't bother too much with them. My major issue fell last year, surrounding the WH Army books. £17.50 in paper, but these new hard back books, will cost £5 more. Ok no worries, better bindings, and will take wear and tear a lot better, I agree £5 is a fair price increase. However less than two months later, the price had to rise, in line with everything else. If you knew that they would have cost £25, just sell them at £25. They blame rising production costs, for rises, but as far as a VAT free book goes, the production value has remained fairly static.

I wonder what lines the price increase affect? Hopefully not the last 2 valkyries i want, as they are the only thing i'm struggling to get on the cheap off eBay along with Hydras. (just won a 1 of the 2 Chimera i want to finish my army for £10, just need to watch for the last one now!) I agree with you Gaz hence why i have gone Mantic guard! RE: Another GW price increase?!?!?! - Stuart - 23-05-2012 Just noticed the Finecast Space Marines on the GW 40K new releases page: http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catalog/armySubUnitCats.jsp?catId=cat440161a&rootCatGameStyle=wh40k RE: Another GW price increase?!?!?! - manrogue - 25-05-2012 The new prices have been revealed and are just plain crazy- http://www.darksphere.co.uk/articles/?news=games-workshop-price-rises-announced £80 for a battlebox? Shocking. RE: Another GW price increase?!?!?! - Gareth - 26-05-2012 That's the nail in the coffin of my Dwarf articles. Best write something else up. RE: Another GW price increase?!?!?! - jaqenhgar - 26-05-2012 ouch, that's more encouragement to spend money elsewhere. However...I'm going to have to finish my Necron force off first. Plus, it means more money to be made on e-bay for anyone looking to sell. |
