    This. If all retailers had got this email I would have expected it to crop up already in the usual whinefest forums. I want to actually hear from some actual retailers before I get cranky.
    Ask not the EldarGal a question, for she will give you three answers, all of which are puns and terrifying to know. Back off man, I'm a feminist. Ia! Ia! Gloppal Snode!

    I'm inclined to not believe this, but if any company is as stupid, moronic, asinine or out of touch enough to make a seriously bad decision like this, its GW.

    THis is the same rumor that went around 10 years ago. See it when I believe it

    [url]http://forum.rpg.net/archive/index.php/t-45182.html[/url]

    That rumor was just people misinterpreting the "no shopping cart sales" rule. THey're just opening them selves up to having competition take more of the market as they'll be more readily available and at the usual 20% online-retailer discount, be considered even more of a discount.

    Not sure how things work in the US, but all the local GW's that I know of, point vets to the other clubs.

    The LGS gets the long timers while the GW's gets the kids, GW likes it that way, and I got told this by a black shirt.

    Now I know that GW were cracking down on non-brick, but there were some really dodgy internet only dealers, so cannot really blame them as they end up getting the crappy end of it.

    However, as long as the store is independent, they can price lower than the RRP even if GW start putting prices on the boxes.
