cytotec is a medication with anti acidic activity used to prevent formation of stomach ulcers in patients who take NSAIDs such as aspirin or ibuprofen. Its main component is Misoprostol, it is a synthetic prostaglandin, the substance which is produced either in a stomach. Their role consists in protecting inner lining of the stomach from destructive action of NSAIDs which are supposed to destruct natural prostaglandins in the stomach.

In response to Lonley Path. As far as the pricing goes i still hold that it is a pretty good price for what you get, but it is certainly expensive. It is sad to hear that there were miscast peices out there. So far i have been present in the assembling of two sets and all the dry fits have been great. The only reason i picked it up so fast was that i was granted a pretty nice discount to purchase it. Coincidently the Warstore has 20% off GW stuff which bumps the price down to about 95 USD which isnt so bad (though shipping always gets you ...)

I just miss having a friend that works for GW since he'd sneak me his 50% staff discount ;) If I'd had that available I would have just bought the game anyway, regardless of what I thought. I'd have made a mint on Ebay at a later date, lol!

When he left GW I stopped buying Baneblades and Shadowswords :D

He really got away with that...?
With similar antics at my store (I was never involved - 100% true!) it prompted a national $$$$$$$$storm and clampdown on Staff spendings.

As far as product replacement and customer service goes goes we all know GW sucks... one of the reasons i hang out over on the wyrder side of things.

Thats not been my experience at all...GW may be guilty of a lot of things in my opinion, but I've never had a problem with their customer service..

They replaced a whole battalion for me because 1 sprue was missing! 1 Sprue....... Thats pretty good service.

Might have changed since I suppose, we're talking 5 years ago.

To be fair to GW, that was always my experience too.
Years ago when the prototype rules for BFG were in White Dwarf I bought a bunch of the old Space Fleet ships from mail order to get a couple of fleets in.
One part of my order was wrong so I asked for a replacement. Time after time they sent the wrong ship :P

It was supposed to be a Gothic cruiser, but they sent a Tyrant cruiser, a Dominator, and what I later learned to be a Mars Factory ship.
Each time they tried again. I was starting to feel i might just look like some jerk telling lies to get more free stuff, but they still kept going until they finally got it right.

He got away with it all the time. When he eventually left he placed a giant order that arrived in 5 very large boxes and only about half of 1 box was his stuff, lol. 1 guy ordered about £1000 of stuff to make the most of it.

As for replacing faulty products, they now require you to return the one you bought before they will send out another. This practice started in 2009. I had to send back 3 Ork Biker boxes (the current ones) since they were all missing the same sprue, lol. This change was brought on by peopletaking advantage to get free kits when the one they bought was fine. Heck, I know a guy that did it and got 2 extra Armoured Companies when Apoc first came out. I wish I'd thought of it at the time, hahaha.

i think it probably depends on what you are trying to get replaced.

A few months ago I bought the new Ikit Claw blister, and it was missing one of the bits. I called GW CS and they sent me a brand new blister without me sending the old one back.

What happened in our store was ridiculous abuse of the discount in a scam-like manner and very poorly executed.

Basically, staff member comes in with his pal and buys a few hundred quid worth of stuff. He has it run through on discount then theatrically turns to his pal saying "happy birthday!"
Then the pal theatrically replies, "thank you! Oh, but I already have this stuff; I'd best get a refund!" and they proceed to refund the lot at standard price, thereby making themselves a few hundred quid at GW's expense.

If they waited a couple of weeks between transactions they might have got away with it...
