When it comes to Warhammer (and probably other games, too) there always seems to be something new and shiny and exciting on the horizon, which is a problem because things cost money! In order to try and combat this here’s a little list of retailers that can save you just a couple of extra pennies.
This list draws on the slightly larger discount retailers list to try and provide you with the very best prices for your area for any given release, but if you’re struggling you may find that the above list is helpful.

🇪🇺 Europe
Hobbyists in Europe have something of a mixed deal. Some countries have stores that offer up to 25% discounts, while some struggle to get better prices than 10-15% off. You also have GW’s exchange rates to contend with: local prices can often be 10-15% more expensive than the direct GBP – Euro conversion rate would suggest! It is for this reason that I’m including a UK-based store in the EU list, as with currency conversion it may work out cheaper to buy from abroad! I would recommend looking at Wayland Games before any stores offering a 20% discount, and in the case of those that offer 25% I would compare the difference when postage is included. For those countries not listed (due to not having stores that offer at least 20% off) I would go straight to Wayland. Should they run out of stock check my retailers list for local alternatives.

🇺🇸 United States
Unfortunately those in the US get a pretty raw deal. Stores are legally only allowed to advertise a discount of up to 15%, and so it’s difficult to find truly competitive pricing. Some stores may quietly offer memberships that grant additional discounts, or have different prices for local regulars, but these can’t be shared online. I also unfortunately only have a small number of US stores on my retailers list, so if you know of any that I could add please do get in touch!
