Feeling ripped off

I recently ordered some Reaper MS paints and I am getting them at a good price by importing directly into New Zealand. Even with the international postage they are considerably cheaper than buying them locally, about 25% cheaper. So this is a good situation 🙂

But buying Citadel washes if a different story. Washes ( I think they call them shades, I cant keep up with name changes) are $7 NZD from a NZ store. But from a US store they $3.70 USD that is $4.40 NZD but of course you have to add in postage BUT due to GW global sales rules you cannot actually purchase them ‘directly’ from NZ. So to cut a long story short, If I could order the Citadel paints from a US store and pay for postage and get them into NZ for about $5.20 a bottle. That is a saving of 25%. We are getting ripped off , this is a bad situation 😦

Another example is the Chaos Codex , can be purchased for about USD 40 plus theoretical postage of 18 to NZ comes to about NZD $68 after converting. It costs NZD $98 so thats a whopping NZD $30 more . We are getting ripped off, this is a very bad situation 😦 😦

My rant is almost over, Fortress America a FF board game sells for #149.99 NZD and can be imported directy into NZ for $96.13. Just another example of feeling ripped off.

That it for today….My painting organizer just got delivered , now thats a good situation 😉
