Hi Folks,

I'm happy to say that we're now accepting pre-orders for Septembers new releases. This will be via email & PayPal until we move to the more comprehensive epos system. The process will be a) decide what you want b) email your order to sales@pyre-studios.com c) We'll send you a PayPal invoice which you don’t need to pay until we confirm that your order is ready to ship.

This process books your miniatures from the small stock we will be receiving before we list them on our store. Shipping on all pre-orders is set at a flat rate of £2.00 worldwide.

Septembers offerings are;
  • Delgon Shocktrooper unit (6 models)   £16
  • Delgon Shocktrooper pair (2 models)   £6
  • Fubarnii Hunter + two graku (3 models)   £9
  • Graku Beasts pair (2 models)   £6
  • Fubarnii Elder Engineer (1 model)   £4

These releases will be live at store.pyre-studios.com from Monday the 5th of September

Best Regards
DB and the Gang

its good to see twilight in another store, i did notice pyre have stated earlier in this thread that shipping world wide would only be two pounds, now ive looked on pyres website, its a nice site but uk standard shipping costs 1.67, now im not a geniusbut i fail to understand why uk shipping costs nearly as much shipping world wide, now this isn't an attempt to moan and begrudge, i understand that this is all business, but when you look at the vast amount of online stores out there selling minis for example maelstromgames which offer free shipping on orders over ten pounds, now times are harsh i look at things like shipping very carefully as i want the most for my money, right now i have my eye on the fubarnii elder which is a very reasonable 4 pounds now add shipping on comes to 5.67 which is nearly a a half of his price added, now again im not having a go im more likely to wait for salute 2012 to come around, then make the purchase now, which is what we all want, so my point and question is if shipping was cheaper , wouldnt people buy more?  from my own humble opinion, i would be more likely to purchase more and more often which puts money in everyones pocket and allows the genius of carcharoth to carry on creating more of his superb models

I guess considering how new this game is and that pyre studios is a small company ( i think) They might not be able to afford to give people free posting on small orders of £4.00
I also feel that using maelstrom is a bad example as they are a behemoth of a game store and make enough money to deliver that kind of offer ( free postage/money back) probably on the back of GW sales alone.
I dont ind spending the money. I was kinda expecting it with this sort of indy style game. Just think of yourself as a pioneer of the game, Sure you have to spend a few extra quid but isn't it worth it to be there from the beginning? Cheesy

Just to clarify a couple of points. 1) I agree that the elder engineer is an awesome miniature.  2) ... Grin

Seriously though, the £2 shipping offer mentioned was for pre-orders only it doesn't apply to regular sales. Regular international shipping for the miniature would be £2.80. I hope that resolves the confusion.

Megatron pretty much hit the nail on the head there with his reply. My own response would go a bit deeper into things like company ethos, business models, devaluation of the hobby, economies of scale, range of choice etc... Out of respect for Mike and his creation though I'll hold my tongue...

I'm not allergic to making money however so I'm sorry to lose the sale Wink

it is an awesome model, now i understand the ethics of business, but what it comes down to is trickle feed, do you keep a product price lower and sell more of an item or keep price high and sell less, i think for me personally having found this system, i want as many people to find it as i have and that for me is down to market saturation, now i think mikes prices are very reasonable, my point was the postage and packing is not, range of choice is high and thats why you need to do something to stand out....!
