[Archive] Free shipping.. Now.. Tomorrow.. Forever?

Joshmohr:

Has anyone else noticed for the past few months its been free shipping? Maybe on orders over $15 USD will be free forever. What do you all think? Now its going through January…

tjub:

Woooooom hooooo !!! That’s the best thing i heard all year !!

thanks Josh

Well, they pretty much have to. Sites like Mealstrom offer world-wide free shipping, lower prices, etc etc etc. No way GW can be competitive by charging retail AND shipping.

Keep in mind folks though that it is STILL most likely cheaper to get stuff from other retailers.

Kera foehunter:

Is there a link for Mealstrom ??and do they only sell gw stuff

GRNDL:

I can’t even remember the last time I ordered anything directly from GW since they dropped their bitz range, and the only thing I’m considering getting from any GW related company is the Lord of Change from Forgeworld, so I guess this means nothing to me.

Nice to see they are trying…

Joshmohr:

I only order from them if i need bitz, or dark eldar… Otherwise i go to my shop, anyway i think they should just say “Free shipping for ever”. Better than them just giving it each month.

No they sell lots of stuff actually. Most common figure manufacturers.
Even GW Direct Only models, though these are more expensive than GW (as they run up to GW-HQ, buy them and ship them to you), but on a whole you'll end up ahead most likely.

Joshmohr:

Still, free US shipping.

Kered:

There is also free shipping in the UK for order over £10.(is it even possible to order less than £10?)

Joshmohr:

Hehe i think that is impossible to get a “Reasonable” price out of GW.
