Before Labor Day, RAFM Miniatures announced a Premiere Membership, allowing a 20% discount on all orders.
Now that Labor Day is over, I finally have a moment to see how good the discount is.
$52/yr nets you a 20% discount on all your orders from RAFM. Great, but for most of us who don't have the privilege of living in the Great White North, S&H is appropriately bonkers. A hundred dollar order is pulling up a $20 shipping charge, so the discount will cover that on a few orders of that size.
I did notice that the S&H charge for orders over $250 calculated at zero, so that might be the smartest way to go (with multiple orders to make the membership a true benefit.
Now, let's turn our attention to the Old Glory Army Membership. A $50 membership earns a 40% discount on items, and since many of of the items sold are unit packs with 30 25mm figures, this drops the price of them to under a dollar a figure. Shipping seems a bit wonky online, but if the base numbers are included, ordering a unit pack at a time with shipping will still save you $5 an order. And, of course, there's those of us on the East Coast who can benefit from the discount live at the HMGS cons Old Glory attends. A half-decent order can cover the Membership and your fees to get into the con!
If it works for you, try (either) membership!
