| Quote (Freshmetal @ 03 2004 Oct.,18:48) | Hi,
Taken from SG forum:
"And it was really good this year. There was some Epic stuff on pre-release to my delight, namely the Baran Seigemasters.
They had the Baran Infantry Company box, Baran Artillery blister pack, and seigfried blister pack. Pretty much everything except the Raganarok tanks. |
Hi chaps,
I was the person who posted this on the SG website.
I was indeed charged ?12 for each company at GDUK, but from looking at the online store, either I was undercharged or the ?20 price on the online store is a mistake.
I went to the stand to get epic minis twice, and both times I was charged ?12 for each baran company, by different staff members. As it says "IG: Siege Infantry Company" on the box label, perhaps they thought it was equivalent is price to the regular Infantry Company box?.

I agree. I think most people do not realize how much they have. Once you start doing a count and marking it up on a sheet, it adds up fast.

Thanks Jimbo ! I was wondering about that. I like the guns & crews separate from the bases !

Interestingly enough, I bought a Leman Russ company.. and was also charged ?12 for it.
As you say, perhaps the staff thought all the boxes cost the same ammount?

Yerch! That's nasty. And if the Infantry box is also ?15 it is a bit nasty...
Cheers!

Hi!
I hope it is not a trend of things to come. GW sometimes tries to wring a little too much out of lines that cant really support such a squeeze.
We'll see.

I agree. I do not mind paying for what I want, as long as it is a reasonable value for payment.
If they price this too high there will be many who will not join in and the line will suffer for it. 
I hope their greed (not that I am saying GW is ever greedy  ) does not drive Epic back into OOP status too soon.

I just visited the online store and it still lists the siege infantry at ?20.
?10 would be more like it.

Just looked at my invoice, the Baran Infantry is listed as ?17.02 with vat to be added so ?20 it is really. Seems like one (small) company are all the reinforcements the boys are going to get

Talking about changing prices and rip-offs, I was going to buy Siege Artillery set @ ?10 for 3 tractors, 3 static guns & 3 static AA. This was in the latest WD.
Now its dropped to ?10 for 3 tractors and 3 static guns or 3 static AA accrding to the online store. Not going to be getting them now

Why does Epic continuously have these problems. The rule book itself was originally being sold in stores at a different price to the online price, and it seems that proces rise and fall almost randomly for every release batch. Even at the start I thought that it was a plan to find out just how much we would be perpared to pay, and I am becoming more convinced that given the scale, it cant be a load of mistakes... there are too many of them... even GW cant be... can they?
