More stock incoming!

I've ordered more stock today, it contains lots of Imperial Guard, some Chaos Daemons, some Eldar, and some Orks. Check back for more updates and info.

Worse news from GW ever!

Holy Crap!! I asked GW whether their price increase for the standard international shipping is right, and they have confirmed it!

Take a look at the picture below.

Basically, it's 10 pounds if I make an order with 9 items or less. Anything more than that will cost 29 pounds in standard shipping.

So, do understand if I have to charge on some shipping fee for your GW direct purchase...

A little of good and bad news...

Today lots of items arrived. I will be taking some Eldar and probably more Orky stuff the next round for stock.

Take a look at the side columns for the minor update in stock.

That's all for the good news.

For the bad news... GW has been doing something funny with me. First off is, from 8 pounds of Standard Shipping, it has become 10 pounds. After I add in a little more items, it became 29 pounds!

Take a look at the picture below.

Unfortunately I will have to discuss with GW before I can make the next order.

Designated order day.

Hi guys, to make things more organized and easier for everyone, I've designated Mondays as order days.

Meaning that I would compile everyone's orders throughout the week and on Mondays, I'll place the orders.

I made it so because it would be easier for me and I wouldn't have to make too many trips to the banks.

My supplier could send the orders out possibly on the same day of the order too. If Pos Malaysia doesn't screw up, the package might arrive on the same week, but it still depends on the traffic. It might take up to 3 weeks for the shipment to arrive.

Hope you guys could work with me on this.

Line Breaker Squadron

I'm sure you guys recognize this box here, it has been out of production for a long time.

When I went through my supplier's inventory, I found these. I'm not sure if it's a joke or not, but I'll ask them whether they really have it.

Anyways, here is the content in the box:
3 Space Marine Vindicators

1 Vehicle Command Sprue

The price is at RM 350

Let me know if you're interested, then I'll get it from them if they still have it...

Shipment that arrived today...

Today, I received the biggest shipment in my entire life time... Probably there will be more because I keep ordering stuff for stock and you guys who buy them anyway...

After unpacking, some of the stuff has been sold. All the Orky stuff are in for stock and the Imperial Guard Valkyries are here too. Nice...

So everything you see on the stock lists are already in except the Chaos Warriors...

Welcome to Glued My Fingers Mini Store

Ever since I've started the hobby, I've grumbled a lot about the price of it. I've been looking for alternatives to save up for the hobby, which also had me to cut down on my daily meals and be frugal for a long period of time.

I became very careful about my money, especially with the unnecessary spending. Since I come from a middle income family, I don't ask much from my parents. All the money I put into the hobby are purely from efforts of my own. Yes, my parents do not know about the hobby. I live in a hostel far away from my home and I'm on my own. Well, they have to give me a monthly allowance for my food and rental of course. The best thing is, they don't know about how successful I've ran this business since last year. I plan to surprise them one day of course. I also work as a motivational coach from time to time. From there, all my money would go to GW.  :P

What is this business all about? I stock and sell the miniatures and hobby products from GW, Privateer Press, Avatars of War, Warlords, Gale Force 9 and even The Army Painter. I'm looking to be involved with those companies directly and am also looking to have ties and connections with even more.

Why am I doing this?

It all started when I was just a beginner at the hobby. As we all know, the cost of this hobby is phenomenal. So I looked for alternatives to attain my hobby needs. This includes ordering online. My friends started to hop into my orders and we'll make a bulk purchase. The reason I became the one who made the purchase is simply because I live in a hostel and all the parcels that arrive would always be received even if I'm not in and it will always be secure until I get it. My friends of course, paid me a little fee for all my troubles of making the orders and sorting them out. Whilst ordering in a bulk, I would receive a little discount, which is a bonus. Those little earning I made contributed a lot to my hobby funds.

I've also seen lots of retailers out there who take advantage of the gamers. Simply because they look "rich" and they can "afford" this hobby. Some times the orders are just messed up and takes months and months to arrive. In Malaysia, we don't have a GW outlet, so we have to rely on the gaming stores here.

At that point of time, I vowed to help the fellow gamers to get hold of what they need and want at the lowest possible price in Malaysia in the minimum waiting time while maintaining a little profit for the hobby. I also do my best to help new gamers and guide them to do the right purchase. I just don't want to see anyone's money being wasted. This is the reason why I do my best to write reviews on certain products I find useful for my readers.

With that said, I would like to thank Webster for starting me off with the business back in October 2008. Ivan who made me realize of the potential in the business and took this next step. Nahri who gave me lots of advice because he wants to see me open a proper physical shop for everyone. Radin who educated me a lot on the GW side of things and taught me to play WHFB. All the gamers who pitched in to support me on making this business bigger (I'm talking to you guys in CM, I promise I'll give back something in a different form to our community). My parents who are always worried about my health (I get sick easily). My sister who quietly supports me. My friends who I talk crap and laugh with a lot. And of course to Kim for listening to my ramblings about my ups and downs and for being there for me through thick and thin for the past few years.

Let's make this a good one!
