yupyup, OK, repetition of a point ad nauseum does get old pretty quickly. I can see that. I would, however, like to make it clear that at no point was I (and, I guess, spev) directing our remarks at anyone in particular, or indeed anyone on these forums. No offence was intended.(not even to GW, believe it or not. Being rude wasnt the point.)
At this point people are pretty much just repeating themselves for the sake of shouting each other down.
i wasnt shouting nobody down. In fact, until Jus posted his comment, this whole thread was pretty much a group whinge.
People have the right to buy the minis they want/like at the prices they are willing to pay for them, no matter how other people may feel about it.
absolutely. I'm not sure where people started thinking this thread was a debate. So far as I was aware, it was just a forum for voicing one's own thoughts at the time. If jus, or anyone else for that matter, wants to buy GW minis they can go right ahead and do so. That was never a point in question. The thread is about our opinion of GWs ban on sales outside the EU and our opinion of GWs change to resin. This is not a fanboy forum. Negativity can and indeed should be voiced here. If something is merely annoying, then it can be borne in silence (e.g. the price of minis about 2 months ago was still pretty high, but to me it was an acceptable cost). If something morally offends you (e.g. GWs treatment of you as a customer) I think its important to voice one's opinion. If you dont, then you pretty much give up the right to complain the next time they do the same thing.
Thus, I complain. I still intend to buy the occasional mini (as I said), but I want to add my voice to the masses who are ditching GW. If enough people do so, then the company will be forced to listen. Or, they can ignore it, and go bankrupt. Or, they can ignore it and continue to make a profit. i cant see the future. But, I have looked at the present and decided that supporting the company who treats me badly is not something I can stomach doing.
