Warhammer World or Nottingham local help requested
« on: 11 July 2023, 09:28:03 AM »
Mods.   Please move this to whatever forum you feel most suitable.


Hello all.  I’m looking for someone who could help me out and who visits Warhammer World in Nottingham UK.

Yesterday as part of a 6 week holiday in Europe my wife and I travelled to Nottingham to visit Warhammer World after calling them a few weeks before enquiring about a certain book that you can get there.

Arriving at Warhammer World the book I was after, Realms of Chaos - The Lost and the Damned, was out of stock when I got there and I wasn’t allowed to pay for it and have it posted out when it was back in stock because they don’t offer that service. 

I also tried to get the Diorama book, which was also out of stock.   

I was wondering if there was anyone who lived local, or who frequents the Bugmans Bar to play games who could grab those for me and post them back to me in Australia because our holiday has come to an end and we’ve now gone back home. 
(Obviously I would send the money over for the books and P&P)

One of the guys at Warhammer World suggested a facebook group, but that group is purely for arranging games and I don’t want to upset anyone by asking there.  Does anyone know of a group I could ask on if no one here is able to help. 

If anyone is able to assist with this I would be extremely grateful.   

Other than not getting the books I went there for we had a great time looking at all the excellent displays despite the fact that I’m not a massive GW player these days, but it sure did bring back sone great memories. 

Cheers all and thanks.

The group you want on facebook is this one - https://www.facebook.com/groups/1710575492567307

That's the warhammer loot sharing group, in which members arrange to pick up exclusives and one offs for each other. It's proven itself very reliable over the years and there are a few regulars in the group that make regular trips to warhammer world.
Sorry to hear they didn't have what you were after - I went last week and they had the diorama book in stock, but it's always a gamble with the exclusives.

Thanks for the link, however, it doesn't seem to work for me.  I keep getting a "This Content isn't available right now" message.
I figured it would always be a gamble, so I telephoned GW before heading there.   The Guy on the phone tried to put me through to the right department but no one was picking up the phone.  He advised me that they do carry a lot of stock so it would probably be there.
Unfortunately, the Lost and the Damned is printed by a third party and was out of stock.  The Dioramas book was in stock when I arrived, but they ran out before I got served at the till.  They did have a look around for more stock but alas couldn't find any.

Nick, that would be absolutely legendary if you could and I would be extremely grateful.

I'm hoping to pop up there later in the year but obviously can't be sure of what stock they will have

Hopefully Nick has got me covered but if he has no luck before you go would you be in a position to help me out?
