ttsgosadow Posted October 22, 2012 Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 I have ordered the Retro Fate Deck some two months ago through Maelstrom Games. It has been listed as 'out of stock at supplyer' a week or so after I ordered it. It's still listed that way. Wondering if it's really out of stock at Wyrd. Beginning to feel I can forget ever getting my Lady Justice box set, 1.5 rulebook and retro fate deck with the rumours Maelstrom Games has high depts and is about to roll over and die.

*Jack* Posted October 22, 2012 Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 I also ordered a retro fate deck off maelstrom and am yet to receive it. Been about 6 weeks plus now. I'm going to send an email asking for a refund. What rumours? wherer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ttsgosadow Posted October 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 'Glad' to hear I am not the only one. Hope you will get a reply from MG, as I havn't got any on ~10 mails. Was too late for a PayPal refund, as that only works up to 45 days after the payment. There's a thread on Dakka Dakka forums about Maelstrom taking the biscuit here. It's linked to page 19, that's up to where I have read the thread Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cadilon Posted October 22, 2012 Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 Wondering if it's really out of stock at Wyrd. I've ordered 4 in the past month and received them from Wyrd with no problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ttsgosadow Posted October 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 (edited) Was afraid that might be so Also heard some companies refuse to do business with Maelstrom Games anymore because of payment issues. Don't think Wyrd is on that list, though, as I did get other Malifaux stuff I ordered through Maelstrom.

Nathan Caroland Posted October 22, 2012 Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 Here is a very very long thread you can read about Maelstrom Games. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/464643.page Essentially, they are out of business, filed for bankruptcy and have spun off their miniature line and some other stuff into other businesses and are in for a ton to their suppliers. So no, you won't be getting anything Wyrd from Maelstrom Games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ttsgosadow Posted October 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 So no, you won't be getting anything Wyrd from Maelstrom Games. How definate is that? I did get other Malifaux stuff I ordered at the same moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan Caroland Posted October 22, 2012 Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 Only what they are clearing out of their shelves, which I believe everything is at 40% off right now if you want to try your hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Jack* Posted October 22, 2012 Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 They have hardly any malifaux left. Some odd avatars but thats about it. I messaged them asking for a refund or store credit to spend on the remaining malifaux, but I doubt I'm going to get a reply, nor see my money again. Incredibly annoying. I hope the guys behind maelstrom aren't completely out on their arse though, they're generally alright and I've had mediocre-decent service from them in the past, so I'm a bit upset to see them going. More money for the troll trader on ebay, or whatever LGS's I visit when I'm going tournamenting I suppose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yardeg Posted October 22, 2012 Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 Thanks for the info Nathan. Since i'm pretty much in the same boat as ttsgosadow i'll head to my bank and initiate a chargeback. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarmasterOJB Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 Bad news. Also still waiting for an order with 5 Fatedecks and a 1.5 rulebook... I guess this looks bad... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMG-Graham Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 Maelstrom won't be getting any more Malifaux from us as he's been cut off due to his massive debt, which has now been sold via a debt purchase company who will be pursuing the debt and legal action. MG is running his final sales (several of them) and there is nothing much left. No further stock will be sent from us. All fate Decks, Retro Decks, rulebooks etc are all in stock here and you'll find them at any other stockist in the UK who have ordered them in. Try Firestorm, Wargames Workshop, Waugh Games, Arcane, Wayland Games, Waylands Forge, Spirit Games, Total Wargamer, Worthy Wargaming, Titan Games or any of the dozens of others who have plenty of Malifaux on the shelves. We have re-stocks coming in every other week and pretty much running straight out the door to all the stockists, so we're just ordering even more*grin**grin* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darios Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 @ SMG: sadly noone seems to do the same you do for Germany... it is really a bit problematic to get the stuff here for local Shops... As for MG: well i'll make sure my players will know this (cause some ordered there regularly) so noone gets ripped of! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicodem Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 your best option would be to phone them and demand a refund. i can recomend Firestorm games they are great, i've had nothing but A++++++ survice from them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMG-Graham Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 We have a couple of German customers for Wyrd, but not many - i just assumed there was a German distributor (there normally is for most games) If not I may have to look at finding a few stores to supply. If you know of any good FLGS let me know and I'll e-mail them some details Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darios Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 @ SMG: there is none i know of... my lgs asked some of the "usuals" here in Germany if they would like to expand their range to malifaux... answer was no. I#ll talk to them and see if they are still searching for! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fritz the cat Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 wow, as a hobbyist, its hard to read that thread. So much of what I think of in my enjoyment of my various hobbies comes from the close interaction with my FLGS, and too think of one going through route potentially screwing over its loyal customers is a tough pill to swallow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mako Posted October 24, 2012 Report Share Posted October 24, 2012 As does half of the stores on the internet, and Wyrd's own webstore...lol. Not to the UK they don't... When I lived in England (up until earlier this year in fact) it was still tricky at times to find Wyrd stuff, as aside from maelstrom there wasn't a huge amount of information about other suppliers. I've learned some new names in this thread to check out when I'm back there, so although it's a shame maelstrom are going down (while desperately hiding all the silverware to avoid the creditors it seems) if I can get better service from a different UK store then it all works out nicely!

Soul Puppet Posted October 25, 2012 Report Share Posted October 25, 2012 I knew things were bad at MG but I didn't realise they were that bad! I took a punt on their recent massive discounts and it took about 2 weeks but my stuff all arrived yesterday. I guess I got lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
13th Warrior Posted October 25, 2012 Report Share Posted October 25, 2012 Normally, me too, but in this case it's turned out handy *wink* I can recommend the Wargame Store - bricks & mortar store with a web presence - if it's on his website he has it in stock & will despatch same day. And no, I don't work for him :-P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belakor Posted October 28, 2012 Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 Damn! Ok, thats where my two fate decks, the 1,5 rulebook and three "...of malifaux" Building sets are gone! This is realy no good start off for my Malifaux times... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
