Once

Never. Too expensive.

I have made about five purchases over the years.

About every other year…

If they bring back their Epic 40K line they would be getting some of my money.

Never.

Hahahahah! You so funny!

Once to date. Another in the next paint slot. No great appeal.

quite a bit lately, but usualy about 1 order a quarter maybe

They are expensive, but some items work out on par with mainstream GW prices and excelent quality, if you look at them as models and one offs rather than gaming then price isnt too bad in those terms

I tend to paint the figures rather than game with most of my purchases

I have over the last few months bought lots of Heresey era Mk5 armour and vehicles

Plus yesterday I just ordered a Reaver Titan

but then again I did get a large bonus this week so that helps and this was only reason I bought a Titan, I probably wont buy for a while from them now as will take months to build and paint my titan up

Once when I was young and foolish……

Never.

Who?

Once, 8 years ago.

I have bought about once every other year. I used to buy more often but don't do as much fantasy and sci-fi stuff any more.

Never. Too expensive.

Twice a year or so. Depends on the year.

Not yet. Is there something I am missing?

Why do you ask…?

It's only polite to give a bit more info before you get info (that most precious commodity) in return.

Once when I went to the Games Day in Chicago. Otherwise its too pricey for what you get.

I would order some if the prices were lower AND the Exchange rate was better for me.

The few items I have bought have been good quality overall.

Maybe every other year, mostly books so far.

Never

Why should I?

My last order was about 8 years ago. Ordered maybe 10 items before that going back to FW's beginning. I think I've still got the ad from Citadel Journal somewhere.

On average twice a year for the last eight years.

Never. To expensive!!!!
BTW, I have also stopped buying from Games Workshop for the same reason.

Maybe a couple times a year.

Never, I've painted many of thier products and I find them poor quality and way too expensive.

Once years ago when GW used to come to DragonCon. They used to also have bits for sale . . . . the good old days.

Jeff

Never.

When they 1st started I got into the 40K Imperial Guard tanks. I mean way back when they started advertising in the Journal magazine and didn't even accept credit cards.
I bought most of the armoured Imperial Guard vehicles.

But about 2 years ago they did not reply to my order or to my queries about my order and that was the last of my business they got.

Haven't ordered from them yet, but I will place an order for a Thunderhawk as soon as I win the Lottery.

Based on my historical ordering patterns, my average is about once per three years and trending less frequent.

Never anymore.
I used to do a lot about 7 years ago…

Once or twice a year, depending on finances and what I want that they make that isn't too outrageously expensive. OR when I have a commission paint job which turns a good profit and I can get whatever I want.

once when they had the epic scale tau stuff. bought a whole shed load. but most of the battle suits were broken. i emailed them about it, and just when i thought they put my email in the "we don't give a crap about it" bin, i got a box in the post. it was everything i ordered for the tau, except this time, the battle suits were unbroken. so, i got double what i paid for(i had repaired most of the battle suits. that was hard, as the figures broke at the ankle, witch was hard to glue.) so that was nice of them. but with the epic stuff gone, and the prices of the other stuff over priced, i don't see me ordering from them again.

Roughly once per year. It used to be more often, but some of that money tends to go to Poland and Croatia lately.

Why do you ask?

never

every thing I have from Forge World I bought off ebay

Never

Rarely…last purchase was 2.5-3 years ago, and a few times before that. I'd like to get a few pieces, but I can't justify letting larger ticket items sit in my painting queue for years as easily as I do for smaller items…

Once. Smaller items. They didn't botch it up and I was happy with the quality. Price on those items wasn't too bad, price on everything else is insane. I'd consider another purchase in the future. Maybe the Chaos Renegade conversion kits. Been eying them for a while.

Three times, last time about six or seven years ago.

nope

Who?

Never--not even the books. Prices are just crazy bad.

I've bought from them twice,both as gifts for my nephew as Christmas presents.He liked the models,and regardless (see,I've been paying attention) of how I feel about the game system or the company,that's what really mattered to me.

I used to buy an item or two a year for quite awhile. Had an issue with some missing pieces in my Thunderbolt model that irritated me. Haven't bought now in years.
