Nictor Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 '2018 is in full swing here at Hornby and January proved to be another exceptionally busy month at HQ. The biggest news was definitely the 2018 Range Launch, which was revealed in all its glory at the beginning of the month.' Obviously still to busy to say what or when anything is happening to the Collectors Club even though we are now nearly halfway through February!

Bulleidboy Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Thanks - where did you get that info, please.Another forum - the member received a letter from Hornby a few days ago. Perhaps all club members will receive one (a letter)! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NWR-Gordon-4 Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 In 10 days time, that will be the last of the posts, asking when the new Club launches! Fantastic news! 😆 😀 GNR-Gordon-4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walkingthedog Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 I got the letter as well. Not sure I’ll be bothering this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NWR-Gordon-4 Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 I didn't get one. I don't think I will join. What it includes, nothing sparks my intertest in it. GNR-Gordon-4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich53 Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 The new club will be launched on 23rd February 2018. Initially membership will be limited for UK residents only.So for us overseas membership, doesn't count, be pretty disappointing with that result if correct.

walkingthedog Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 Doesn’t say you don’t count. Says initially for UK only. You present club membership will more than likely continue until overseas membership is introduced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walkingthedog Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 I haven’t really read the letter properly. Went to read the letter and it’s gone. Never mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael_winstanley Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 The new club will be launched on 23rd February 2018. Initially membership will be limited for UK residents only. Looks like its launch will be at Model Rail Scotland, next Friday 23rd February. I haven't received a letter yet. Maybe being sent out in alphabetical order. Should get mine by Christmas 2018 then!

Bulver Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 Just received my invitation to renew my club membership, but, as I read the letter, you can’t do it till the23rd. This is when I assume they re-launch the club at Model Railway Scotland.Rod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigskybirds Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 I received my letter this morning and filed it in the waste bin, the new format does not appeal to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveM6 Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 I presume the 10% member discount (20% at the Visitor Centre) has been replaced by the loyalty thingy? If so, I won’t be bothering either. Could very well be a ‘blue box’ year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dynax Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 Just got mine today, curious to know what you get with the reward card, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bulleidboy Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 The 10% discount for members (current?), already seems to have disappeared from the shop. If you were logged in, the discounted figure was shown - it doesn't now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slornie Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 I guess my letter is still in the postal system then! So I take it the hornby-direct discount is gone and replaced by the free 0-4-0? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon if I bought something from Oz I wouldn’t get the same deal as you when you bought from them. I'm impressed that you have already received your letter in Australia as many here haven’t.
