I must admit to being a little bit in shock about this! I cant believe that even GW would simply stop selling Epic stuff from previous versions. Surely now that the new game is released, there will be more demand for the old stuff?
This is a real shame.

Hi!
CS, they did the same thing for epic 40k. I guess they want to obligate players to nuy the newer stuff.
Last time all it did was create a buying frenzy before the deadline and even more exagerated prices on auction sites.
It did not increase sale.
Go figure.

Sometimes it pays to be an old fart. I've got enough IG, SM, Orks, Squats and Eldar to game for a long time. Not anywhere near a primarchload, mind you, but still enough to field a sizable army of each. After I've painted them, that is.

Yup ! Being an Old Timer, I've got 9 Epic Armies and only will buy the new E:A in small quantities for ascetics. And I can always use another det. of "new" Rhinos, Raiders etc. Plus there are some actual "new" models just not new versions, too ! So we will have to wait and see ... if E:A flys !

I run a business and if our customers want it we sell it ... but Epic has such a small worldwide following (probably less than 10,000 ? 
), it is not a priority for them ...
