The short version

The honest comparison
Why not just grab the cheapest set online?
You absolutely can, and plenty do. But a mystery listing on a giant marketplace and a set made by an actual dice company are not the same purchase. Here is the difference, laid out plainly.
Buying CritStones from GlassStaff
- Stock sits in the EU, so EU orders arrive with no surprise customs bill at the door.
- Designed in house, not drop-shipped. If you can see it, we made the call on it.
- A lifetime guarantee on every die, with one free replacement and the postage on us.
- 7,471 verified reviews you can actually read, tied to real orders.
- A small crew answers your email, not a script. We packed the box you open.
A mystery listing on a giant marketplace
- Often shipped from far away, with the customs paperwork left as your problem.
- The same generic set under a dozen names, with no one behind the design.
- Chip a die and the seller has usually vanished by the time you notice.
- Reviews that may belong to a completely different product last month.
- Support is a support queue, if it answers at all.

Real people behind the counter
The same small crew that designs and packs your dice answers your email. No ticket purgatory, no copy-paste. Just people who love the game too.
Fast dispatch
Order before 13:00 on a weekday and it usually leaves the same day. Your next session should not have to wait a fortnight.
Who you are buying from
A dice company run by people who play.
GlassStaff started with one person hunched over a sketchpad in the pre-dawn quiet, drawing for the game they loved. It grew into a small crew making dice for RPG tables and wargaming boards across Europe, and into the CritStones and WarStones you roll today. We are still that crew. We still open every box, and we still care whether the numbers land straight.
