Subject: [GZG] More from GZG: TRIPLES and SALUTE.... (important info - please read!)
Our two big spring shows, TRIPLES (Sheffield) and SALUTE (London) are approaching with frightening speed..... As most of you probably know already, Triples is on the weekend of the 17/18 April, and Salute just one week later on the 24th; this means several things for us and you, in particular: 1) In the week BETWEEN the two shows, we will have little time to do anything except frantically cast and re-stock what has been sold at Triples, in order to have enough stuff to take to Salute; this means that there will be few, if any, mailorders dispatched during that week, so if you order anything at that time (or indeed in the last few days leading up to Triples) then please be aware that there WILL be some delay as we almost certainly won't be able to dispatch your stuff until the week after Salute. 2) We need any SHOW PRE-ORDERS for EITHER show placed as soon as you can, please - the cut-off date for pre-orders for both shows will be the 11th April, the weekend before Triples (and thus two weeks before Salute). Any show orders placed AND PAID FOR (by card or Paypal) before this cut-off will benefit from our usual 10% show pre-order discount. On the subject of show stock and pre-orders, there is one other VERY IMPORTANT piece of news: with our constantly-expanding ranges, we have pretty much reached the limit of what we can a) fit on and behind the show stand, and b) physically carry in the van to the shows, so we've had to make some decisions about stuff we will NOT be bringing with us: With effect from TRIPLES onwards, we will NOT be bringing the stock of INDIVIDUAL Stargrunt 25mm figures to shows anymore; what we plan to do is to bring a limited number of SQUAD PACKS (8 figs) and PLATOON PACKS (24 figs) of the various forces, ready-packed for immediate sale, but we will not have the loose single figure codes with us. All individual codes will still be fully available by mailorder as usual, this change ONLY affects the show stock. If you want specific SG 25mm single figure codes at a show, you MUST pre-order them so we can have them packed up and ready for you. This change will affect all the 25mm SG military ranges (SGA, SGE, SGN and so on), plus some of the "oddities" like the NUNS, BIKER BABES, REDNECKS, MARTIANS etc. Other individual character figures will still be available as singles, at least for the time being, but the rule of thumb is IF IN DOUBT, PRE-ORDER! Thanks for reading! Best,
