    ...when the anchorage store will be getting new stock?
    Im after a game mat and some more dashboards but theyve been out of stock for some time. Ebay UK doesnt seem to have any anymore and the stuff that does come up is grossly over priced.
    Any ideas?

    Have you've seen some of the prices folks are bidding on Constitution and Victory?

    Makes me glad I have a local vendor as a close friend!!!

    Some of that is because there are some interestingly braindead algorithms people use for auto-setting Amazon marketplace prices.

    One of the out-of-print Serenity RPG books used to sit on Amazon around the £150 mark, with several sellers advertising it at close to the same price. If I'd had one to sell, I'd have laid good odds that I could have made all their prices drop by putting it on sale at (say) £30....

    Keith is the one that has to answer your question. I know he's been away on a business trip, but he should have been back by now. He'll be at Origins I believe at the end of this week so you may not get an answer until he returns from that?

    The Ares website says that reprints of the rubber backed game mats will be available in July. http://www.aresgames.eu/upcoming-products

    We can but hope.

    I wonder if they are working on ship mats. They seem to have been out for a number of weeks now and I haven't seen any sign of reprint activity on the Ares site...

    On Amazon USA a dealer actually listed the American Sloop for about $450, and someone actually bought it!!

    Also, recently two of Winfield's books on the British Navy were listed at $100.00 each, and those were from Amazon!!

    I was blown away at that as I had bought my copies not long ago for less then half that amount. In the last week or so though the prices have come back down into the $55.00 range!
