Subject: [GZG] [OFFICIAL] Midsummer Deals and Painting Contest!
Hi all, Special Deal time again! A Mid-Summer biggie this time, on (almost) ALL of our ranges.... August is normally a fairly quiet month for sales, plus this year some of the smaller conventions we'd normally go to are not happening for various reasons - so, to keep the cash flow coming in we're making you offers that we hope you can't refuse! For the first two weeks of August, we are offering huge discounts on most of our products - orders over 50 GBP value will get 20% discount, and orders over 100 GBP a massive 30%! Remember these are on top of the VAT deductions where applicable, so US and other non-EU customers will effectively get almost 32% or 40% off depending on order size! This offer extends to ALL our product lines EXCEPT for resin items (SF25 and MT ranges), starmats, books and decals. So basically everything we make in METAL is included in the deal - FT ships, SG figures in 15mm and 25mm, 15mm vehicles, 6mm DF/DSM stuff and so on. All regular deals such as FT fleet packs, SG platoons etc. ARE included in the offer. To qualify for each discount band, you must order the relevant value in those ranges included in the deal - in other words, if you have any non-sale items (books, resin etc) in your order we'll deduct the cost of these before figuring out whether you get the 20% or 30% deal. I hope that makes sense.... ;-) The offer runs from TUESDAY 1st AUGUST to TUESDAY 15th AUGUST; please mention the offer when you order, in the "comments" box of the online form. The automated confirmation you get by email will show the full retail prices, we'll make the sale adjustment manually when we process the order. This will probably be the biggest sale deal we run this year, so make the most of it! :-) PLUS...... Advance news - GZG PAINTING CONTEST!! In a couple of weeks, we will be announcing full details of our very first OFFICIAL GZG PAINTING CONTEST - there will be classes for Full Thrust starships and for SG 15mm figures and vehicles (for those of you into 6mm and 25mm, don't worry - if this first contest works well, we'll do some for those scales too!). More information and entry submission instructions nearer the time, but we wanted to give you all an advance heads-up so that you can start to prepare your entries. Basically, there will be a number of classes including single ship and fleet group for Full Thrust minis, and vehicle, infantry and combat group classes for SG 15mms. All entries to be submitted online, and the quality of photos will be taken into account along with the quality of painting. We will be putting up some very nice prizes, including an FT Megafleet of your choice for the overall FT winner! All colour schemes can be of your own design, and conversions/customisations of ships, vehicles and figures are acceptable provided that the major parts are recognisably of GZG origin! Watch out for more news soon....
