aliexpress finds.

nic-e:
I thought we could have a companion to the poundshop thread for things found on aliexpress.

for the uninitiated " AliExpress.com is an online retail service made up of small businesses in China and elsewhere offering products to international online buyers. It is owned by Alibaba.[1] AliExpress is the most visited e-commerce website in Russia and was the 10th most popular website in Brazil.[2] It facilitates small businesses to sell to customers all over the world, and, just like Amazon, one can find almost anything for sale. It is more accurately compared to eBay, as sellers are independent, using Aliexpress as a host to sell to consumers and other businesses."

Just with a few minutes of searching I have found these plastic buildings which would work very well for 15/20mm gaming.

If you spend some time trawling through and don't mind a slow delivery time you can get some really good usefull stuff for little money.
Or you can stock up on pretend lego....

There are great deals with wragaming friendly plants and such.
They used to be on ebay (and I felt much safer ordering them) but after Aliexpress many sellers switched

robh:
For things like bases , wargame trees, bags of flock/static grass etc they are unbeatable. It is where the eBay gougers buy from.

Bases:

Only place I have found bulk selling 25mm round plastic "non slotta" bases with hollow underneath (to weight with a coin)

Predatorpt:
I confess I buy most of my brushes there:

Plus silicone tools to work with green stuff and spread Vallejo pumice in my bases:

beefcake:
I'm keeping an eye on this thread. I was going to suggest bases. They have loads of types of bases on there. 50mm, 40mm 32mm as well.
Anyone seen 1/56 / 28mm buildings?
