Cults Across America £15
Android £15
Kingsport Horror £15

Plus some other stuff here:

They're also discounting some M44 stuff, but the savings are minimal.

I just saw those this morning too, would be interested in Cults Across America but nothing else at the moment - they also had A&A:Pacific 1940 for £40 (down from £59) but I don't think I'd get enough plays with it to make it worthwhile even at that price (plus trying to find a table in micro-UK big enough to play on).
This company is good once you get over £50 of games as it's a flat £5 postage.

I ordered something from there before but they don't keep things in stock I found. I cancelled my order and ended up getting a bit of a sob story message from the bloke who runs it. Think it's a fairly basic venture, run out of a garage. Which I wholeheartedly back. Felt rather sorry for him but I still had to cancel as I am an arsehole.

I have used them a couple of times when I had big orders with mates, no probs with either of them but they do say that if isn't in stock then it will be a couple of weeks waiting time.

i had ordered Conflict of Heroes and it went out of print during the time i ordered, so i was scuppered because they didn't have it in their stock but were still selling it on the site.

Last night, while up with the baby in the middle of the night, I checked my emails on my mobile phone and saw I had one from the Book Depository telling me Runewars was in stock for £55 (post free).

I was greatly excited and looked forward to buying it the next day. But when I got up this morning ... out of stock again! Either they had 1 copy, or the entire US was desperate to buy Runewars at a 10% discount while we in Europe were asleep :(

I don't trust them anymore - they cancelled my confirmed order for Castleravenloft as they took more orders than they had stock, and I'm not holding my breath for my confirmed and ALREADY paid for Civilisation.

Hopefully enough people will complain about them to the Office of Fair Trading.

I think they're based in Jersey so may not be affected. They're just learning from Amazon, who did the same thing a couple of years back to me with my BSG pre-order.

If they get enough complaints they might contact their Jersey equivalent. Incidentally, do they take your money when you order and refund later, or cancel before then?

They take your money straight away, so if they do cancel again then they would have had my cash for a month or two. I think Amazon at least only take your money if they actually send you the item.

But once they take the money they're contracted to supply the goods. If they run out of stock, the normal behaviour would be for them to get more because they're still available. Seems to me like they're in breach of contract. I'd report it to the credit card company at the least.

Yes, but their argument is that it is no longer available from their distributors - try arguing that one with them, and then play chicken and wait it out until (if ever) they get it in again (which they still haven't for Castle Ravenloft).

You don't have to. It's easy enough to prove it's still available, so you let the credit card company argue.
