Is Gamezone actively trading?
« on: August 20, 2018, 06:34:14 AM »
Gamezone hasn't shown anything new in years and is embroiled in the HeroQuest scandal, but is their back catalog still available, are they still casting, etc, and if so, would you say there are risks to ordering from them? Website is up and cart is active, but that doesn't say a lot in itself.

I absolutely wouldn't order from them, but that's me...and I'm an HQ buyer.  That company and the guy running it are in some weird headspace right now...

Didn't Hasslefree begin stocking their stuff a while back? I seem to recall a semi-recent HF newsletter mentioning they were getting restocks too.

I really have no idea what I'm doing.

The stock Hasslefree have is on the Artemis Black's drop down menu if that's any help.

I wouldn’t order from Hasslefree either. They aren’t responding to emails.

I don’t know what’s going on in the miniatures world but companies are dying like flies in winter.

Have you tried facebook messaging them?

For what it's worth, poor comms doesn't equate to 'dying' - if that was the case, a fair few companies of varying statures have died and resurrected several times over. Black Tree has made a business out of it . . . . .

No Facebook.

And why have an email - or, rather, TWO, if you don’t plan I using them?

Come one it'll arrive, They are due for another update next April   ;)
I do agree with Elbows as another HQ buyer. They have some weird ideas about their abilities... or are just very good actors (and liars).

I'd assume they're also prone to dodging emails and Facebook etc. considering they shanghai'ed a bunch of people to the tune of a cool 1.3(?) million dollars or something...and are probably being harrassed at every turn.

I emailed them once a while back and while they replied it basically said there will be an update soon... Soon is a relative term I guess.
