Hi Guys,

Malc and Gregor were asking me about where the stock for B-Movie went for the first 100 decks so I thought I would split it off into a seperate thread.

Since launching at Games Expo I have had the following:

Comps = 5
Retail sales = 50
Direct Sales = 44
Faulty = 1

The one faulty copy got bashed up a bit on the way to me from the states, but I am hoping Ryan might add an extra one to a future run, still need to chat to him about that.

Breaking things down further

Retail

Black Lion = 18
Leisure Games = 16
Eclectic = 10
Ecollectica = 6

Direct

Games Expo = 30
Post GE = 11

At the moment the site is doing diddly squat for me, I have not had a single direct sale. I am toying with removing the charge for P&P. Partly I think this is down to me not marketing the game as much as I should have after expo but work has been a little draining the last month or so. I will be a lot more active in the coming months.

The second run is split as follows:

45, including 5 comp, to IPR
55 to me.

I will be hitting toy stores round edinburgh with the second run as well as seeing about distribution through esdevium.

Oh just remembered, I have also had one sale through the GoB site, which will be properly advertised after Gencon Indy. This costs me nothing, as they produce the stock on demand.

Costs wise, each deck costs about £2.50 to make, I can give a more exact number tomorrow when I am back in edinburgh. A direct sale is £9 and a retail sale is £5.40. I can also tell you that after paying for art and selling through the first run as well as paying for the second I am now sitting on about £200 in my account and still need to put in some money recevied recently which should take it to around £300.

The only thing bugging me really is that I let myself sell out, and swore I wouldn't. Oh well I just have to make the trigger for a reorder higher I guess.

Any questions?

All the best

Iain
