Friday already, must be my day off.

My pledge is to get the rest of the Purge models painted from the main Core Space box then maybe start on the small Spider models from the Outbreak expansion. I’ll be using all of these Purge models instead of pirates for the Unwanted Attention table in Stargrave.

Has Brexit changed your online shopping behaviour?

I’m more cautious now putting orders in from Europe. My recent Kromlech order came through no problem (and no import tax), but my Army Painter order had big problems back in January. It got lost in customs and they had to send out a replacement order which arrived with no difficulty’s.

Now when I can I’d rather buy from a seller in the UK that have items from Europe already in stock as it’s less hassle for me, but then again I’m looking at risking an order from Deep Cut soon.

Have shipping and taxes ever held you from buying something you really wanted?

Yes, although this is mainly from a lot of things from the US on Etsy where the postage can be twice the price of the actual product.

How could small, one-man-operated companies band together to get their stuff to people outside their “tax-zone”?

I recently listed to an interview on the Paint All the Minis podcast, number 205, where a company in Asia works with games companies around the world to make their games more easily available in those countries.
