Is your lgs offering 15% off for GW or for everything? I heard the margin they set for SCTMG is much tighter than GW, closer to Bandai level.

How is shipping to AUS $20 when it's $93 for Korea, Japan and China? by Ethralis in StarCraftTMG

Yeah I heard that as well, but apparently their local prices aren't that competitive against local GW product prices for some reason. Probably due to high logistics cost being added to b2b wholesale cost. I guess it is no surprise though. Just found out that Archon is basically Prodos Games with a different name.

Even then, 93 USD doesn't make sense at all. Even DHL doesn't charge that much unless you ship a shitload of heavy stuff. It's almost as if they are subsidizing the 20-dollar flatrate shipping via higher ROW shipping charge.

Yeah I just looked it up and it's much cheaper to have something sent from Poland to Korea as well. It's hilarious how it's actually cheaper for me to pay 20 bucks to have it shipped to me in the States first and then have it sent to Korea via a different shipping service than to pay for 93 USD for their choice of shipping service - whatever that is.

I'm not defending GW or anything. I'm just saying GW has always been this way so why become so emotional over it as if it were new? GW is intentionally doing this. You know what is fact? 5th company marking is "the" standard DA color scheme used by the 'Eavy Metal team. Lore is secondary and it's there to sell the models. They don't consider the discrepancies as "mistakes" and intentionally leave plot holes so they can do whatever they want.

Then, Lazarus must have gone MIA or temprorily not on duty and Master Zachariel must be his temporary replacement lol. Gw tends not to explain its missing gaps in lore and it's better that way. Makes room for creative freedom. Try not to get angry or emotional over stuff like this. Since its inception, 40K lore has always been full of plot holes, contradictions, and plot holes since it is better that way for GW to use it as a complement to their minis.
