Brigade Games? It's been a few years since my last order from Lon but they've always taken Paypal in the past, I wouldn't have ordered if they hadn't! You sure you didn't just miss an option in their shopping setup?

I have had great service from Lon here in Europe, not ordered from him since Covid though.

Cheers

Long time lurker on this forum. My experiences of ordering with Brigade Games in the US (from the UK) haven't been great. A few years ago I too ordered some of the excellent Peninsular War figures. I spent around £270. It took 6 months for the order to get to the UK. To this day I've no idea why it took so long. The website doesn't help either and was a nightmare to navigate. I understand that Lon at BG has introduced a new website but I am loathe to go through that experience again.

Despite this, I too backed the Plains War kickstarter (which was supposed to be delivered in December). Still waiting and I spent a lot of money on that order (which the wife wasn't happy about). Still no parcel or any communication.

Needless to say that this entire experience has put me off from backing anymore kickstarters in future (either here in the UK or in the US).

Just for information - I posted on the kickstarter site a few days ago (about lack of any package) and received my Plains Wars minis today. I'm thinking that Lon does listen to complaints. He just gets bogged down when the orders come in thick and fast. However, it should be noted that there are still others out there who are waiting for their minis (as part of this kickstarter) and who have also posted an enquiry on the kickstarter site. Make of this, what you will?

Always had a great service from Brigade Games in the U S. They do an excellent range of WW1 Austro-Hungarians sculptured by Paul Hicks that are second to none. Their new range of AWI is also excellent though not bought many of these as the Perry’s range is so good in the UK
