I heard a rumour today that as of september first GW stores will place orders from their catalogue of specialty games and get it delivered to the store for you, I assume this won't be offered to the hard working independant stockists like the DIce and Deck, but on the plus side it might see a revival of some of the great old games like necromunda, bloodbowl, warhamster and alike if people in oz can actually get the miniatures!
there's still a few BB teams I don't have... but I'll need a bigger case for them all, lol.

The dice and deck has been able to order in specialty games for a while now. Necromunda, blood bowl etc all available through the store!
Basically if it is on the GW website the store can order it in...

Yeah they charge the standard mail order fee, basically i think the rumour you've heard is them changing around their account system which will make things easier for ordering the stuff in, instead of the roundabout way we do at the moment. On the bright side, mail order stuff doesnt seem to take more than a few days to arrive.

No.... My feeling on the matter was the 'extended range' was something that was meant to be exclusive to IR's (this i was told from the horses mouth) lots of people took advantage of it so GW want their money back...
Wont surprise me if its ripped from IR's shortly...

Yeah i guess, which is gunna bone over the majority of shops. I think they said the GW shops are getting in the black library stuff too.
