New Wave does suck!

Just to give you an option, we sell most of what New Wave sells and we do it at 30% off retail price.

We can get pretty much every major game currently in print. Just visit www.BackAlleyComics.com for more info.

As for the Talking Heads, I never go into them much, but I did dig Devo.

There is a Yahoo Group devoted to discussing miniature dealers called MiniDealerDiscusson . It was started, in part, to keep New Wave "bashing" off the main mini-painter list.

A few people (and one or two shills) have posted positive New Waves stories on the group list, but they are few and far between. One positive note - New Wave does read the list, and some people have actually gotten problems resolved by posting them publically on the minidealerdiscussion Yahoo group.

Listers are also trying very hard to list positive experiences with mini dealers, so it's not all about New Wave on the list.

Here is my fave mini mail order company:

http://www.discounthobby.com

also at
http://www.dragglestown.com

Most minis are 30% off everyday and they have an impressive online catalog. Fast shipping, too (within one week).

New Wave is trying

I have ordered a lot of minis from them, and yes the delivbery is taking a long time to get to me, however I have had several responses from them saying that they are still waiting on an order, which should arrive this week.

So far I have about 1/2 my order which is good.

http://WWW.wargamesfoundry.com do a great range of minis and have an excellent customer service attitude if you're looking for an alternative...

Keeping my fingers crossed!

I can say that when they have replied they have been polite and helpful.

I knew I made a mistake showing you that link.... now I have to deal with seeing you online here too!

Welcome to the EnBoards Ed, glad to have you on this trip, just don't snoop in my DM only posts about how to really screw you and the rest of the party over!

Anyone know of a cheap way to order their stuff from the US? $10 shipping for a $18 pack of figs is a little steep. And for obvious reasons I would prefer not going through New Wave...
