Bits stores

As already suggested to our dear Admin Tom, I thought it would be nice to have a sticky compiling online stores that sell single bits and sprues. Here are the first ones:

SPRUES

For those of us on the other side of the Atlantic, here's a couple good US bits providers. I have purchased from both and had flawless transactions with them.

-Decent inventory, but expanding. Sells some whole sprues as well. Cheap shipping.

http://stores.ebay.com/Hoard-O-Bits
-Has items for purchase and items on auction.

The War Store [ www.thewarstore.com ] under the BattleWagon section offers an array of GW bits; postage is a flat $2.99 Domestic & $3.99 International. Service is TRULY excellent.

I thought I'd bump this, perhaps it gets stickied.

Sticky would be nice. I wish I had known about these earlier... I could have saved a lot of money!

Here is the place I use to purchase bits.

For anyone living near Sheffield, UK, 'the wargames emporium' has a massive box of bits to rummage in and sell them for next to nothing, as well as lots of old second hand models. I frequently pick up 80's marauders minis there and I've even spied the odd out of production Mordheim fig!

I recently found this French bits shop on ebay: http://stores.shop.benl.ebay.be/InHumaN-BitZ-BoX__W0QQ_armrsZ1
bought a couple of bits and i'm very content of it!


and I can only add that Hoard 'o Bits (that Idendity posted) is a very good trader indeed! Did dozens of good trades with him

I suggest http://www.modelbits.co.uk/ decent 40k range and a decent amount of Empire bits (which is particularly useful for a range of Mordheim warbands of course!). Always had super smooth transactions with modelbits, and it often has bits that the 'major players' have sold out of. (so, shhhh, keep this one under your hats my fellow Mordheimers! )

Seconded, Blackdagger (aka window-box) is amazing for single miniatures - a lot of my warbands are/will be based on stuff from Blackdagger (of course with plentiful customisation! )

I also kitted out 5,000pts plus of Chaos Space Marines with Chain Axes from Blackdagger

Great info! I didn't even know that there were stores out there selling bitz

Does anybody know if there is some store like this in scandinavia (preferably finland)?

How come these stores are always out of stock?

Beacuse people like me check them several times per week, and order stuff the second (well, almost...) they have it in store. Sorry 'bout that.

Try contacting them concerning the specific bits you're after, most of these sellers take care to be of service.

JERK! Well I guess I'll have to contact them if I ever wish to finish my warband...

Micro Art studio has a Conversion lab section which sells useful bits in the same scale as GW.

& west wind do some interesting heads in the same scale too.
