Hello,
I would have posted in the official Brexit thread, but it seems to be closed.

Is it right that the market closes this midnight and the pound will stay over 0,84 for the weekend til monday accordingly?

Would you say buy some stuff through the week-end or better wait?

It would madden me missing the opportunity if they suddenly find a solution and the pound normalizes.

Thanks,

Jere

P.S.: Is there a UK source for Reaper models who offer free Shipping at a certain amount?

Reaper themselves offer free shipping over a certain amount, but I guess you want to avoid customs?

Take into account services like paypal can be (deliberately) slow in adopting to exchange rates. Last weekend when a lot of us made purchases I think they were hardly any lower then the week before brexit, its starting to come down now though.

Pretty broad question, but what UK sellers do you recommend buying from? I remember several UK miniature companies that had unique miniature you can't get in the US, such as Hasslefree's survivors for Zombicide. Likewise, Mantic is based in the UK. How would I be able to get their Kings of War sets cheaper with the pound at its low? TIA!

Wayland games used to stock Hasslefree I think. They also have an extensive range of Mantic stuff. I also think if you spend over 50 pounds you get free shipping (might need a code for that though)

Heresy Miniatures is having a 25% off sale until the end of July, so that's worth a look.

The only downside is Andy won't be shipping anything out until the 1st August. However, if you want to save money, but aren't in a hurry for the figs, it's worth a look
