Brigade Models

These are the folks whom you have to belong to an orginization to get right?

I stumbled across this website online. Has anybody bought starships from these
guys?

http://www.tonyfrancis.free-online.co.uk/brigadeframes.htm

I noticed that in the section about their starships they talk about needing to
be a member of some kind of SciFi Gamer Society to order...and that the
company is in Britain...and that they don't accept credit cards...

My question is... Is there anyone in this list (Maybe in UK?) that IS able to
buy these minis and ship them to some of the rest of us? And possibly accept
credit cards (maybe through PayPal.com or something...)

I REALLY like their carriers and would love to own a few...

Tony's on the list...I think that would qualify....

Yes, and Tony is even on the list. They are excellent.

You can join in the US as well; they have a US "contact" IIRC.

...and you SHOULD!

Yes, I'm here, slightly flustered (my wife's been in hospital for a minor op.,
leaving me - literally - holding the baby. You don't realise how much
you appreciate sleep until you don't get any for two nights in a row...).

Anyway, I won't take up too much bandwidth - this is the GZG list, after
all.

Jed has already posted details of joining the SFSFW in the US so I won't
repeat that. If you can get a bank draft from your local bank (shouldn't be
too hard from most reasonably sized branches) then that's the easiest way to
pay us. We can now accept cheques in US dollars as well as sterling (I don't
think I've updated this bit of the website) although we may need to ask you to
pay a bit towards this since it costs us to convert it. If you want to get in
touch with me directly concerning exactly what you want to order, I can work
out the postage and convert to dollars so that you can get a bank draft for
the correct amount.

Schoon, our unofficial evangelist judging by the comments above, is an expert
on getting overseas cheques arranged so he will probably be able to give you
some pointers.

Apologies to Jon for hijacking his list, I now return you to your normal
(GZG)
programming....

Hiho folks,

Is anyone in this list a member of SFSFW? I'm after a couple of the Brigade
Models Full Thrust minis but don't really want to pay A$30 (roughly) to join a
club I have absolutely no interest in, just to get access to them. So I'm
hoping to make a deal. If interested would you please contact me
off-list on
webmaster@stargrunt.com? Thanks.

Also please note that I don't intend to be rude to the organisers of SFSFW or
their members.

Perhaps not, but it might be a bit rude to Tony, whom, it appears, set the
line up for members only. Note, Tony reads this list pretty closely. Of
course, as tardy as issues of Ragnarok are, it almost seems like a lifetime
membership anyway. What a bargain! ;->=

Lastly, I'm one of several members on the list, but I'm assuming reshipping
from the US would probably defeat the purpose; you might want to indicate you
mean members IN Oz.

Common mistake amongst all us national-centric colonials, of course...
