Terrain Pack Expansion (availability)

Hi,
I'm a new Memoir 44 player and I'm enjoying the game immensely. I'm interested in buying the Terrain Pack expansion, but it appears to be out of stock at a lot of retailers. I've found one or two that are stocking it, but I'm not convinced of their reliability. I'd prefer to stick with a retailer I've used in the past.
Are there plans to produce more of this pack - or should I look to risking it with one of the retailers ?
Thanks in advance and apologies if this is the wrong forum

Who are the retailers? Perhaps we can give a recommendation. Certain expansions seem to be in and out of stock. It's not discontinued from what I know, so it will probably be reprinted soon.

Well, the retailers I checked were;
days of wonder itself !
gameslore
essentialboardgames
thegamesplayer
One that did have it was boardgameclub - but they didn't seem to have any contact details (phone, address) so I was a bit hesitant.

Besides DOW, I don't know the others.
Check out this site. http://boardgameprices.com/game.aspx?id=111064
It lists most of the major online retailers and if it has it in stock or not. Phoenix always lists as in stock but it is not (if you click on the link).
I have never used "House of Games" but they are the cheapest. The next "cheapest" and in stock is Time Well Spent. I highly recommend them. Purchased quite a bit from them. A couple spots later is Fairplaygames and I would recommend them as well. I think I have ordered from Dragon Talon as well.
Most of these places are more expensive. You may want to give them the House of Games link and see if they will price match. Most companies will do that if there is an in stock link to another company. That way you get the reduced price from a trusted source. However, I don't usually ask for a price match unless I plan to maybe get another item in the same order - make it worth their while to humor me as a customer.

Thanks for the responses so far. I probably should have mentioned that I'm based in the UK - which means, apart from having limited options to buy, I'll also be paying a lot more than the US prices
I see that timewellspent ship internationally, so I guess I'll email them and see how much they charge.

On the link I provide, this company is in the UK and appears to have it in stock: http://www.fwtwr.com/store/memoir-terrain.asp?xCat=M& ;xRef=memoir-terrain
Can't vouch for them though.

I've heard good things about Time Well Spent site as well, though the expansions I've bought online are from DOW. Most of mine I bought at a local gameshop. Good luck in locating a copy.

We will reprint all the expansions we are currently out of, later this year (late summer/early fall, most likely).

Your lucky.... I don't have any game stores around here... I have to get everything by mail. No, I don't live in the boonies either.

I've just bought terrain pack online in the UK from Shire Games and it arrived next day (I don't have the URL to hand but you could google them).

Hopefully this will include the elusive Desert/Winter Board too!

With the release of AirPack, it would seem that the Terrain Pack would be needed more and thus I would suspect it there would be more created.
As I can see by your profile, sadly you are from the UK or I would recommend quite a few sources here in the US. The only thing I can recommend is to just look. Of course there is always Ebay, if one is desperate enough for it.
