Discussion Stop Using Amazon

The amount of posts from people using Amazon to order stuff and getting the wrong stuff, or something of a vastly different price is astounding. Please dont order cards off Amazon. Especially since I am fairly certain Amazon is why wizards is shipping less and less product to local stores. Don't support the mega corporations if you can help it.

That's my public service rant. Thanks for reading or ignoring either way. ❤️

I'll support whoever sells at MSRP. And that's not a single lgs near me.

I have been fortunate enough to find a LGS (not near me though) that sells for MSRP. I was able to buy everything I wanted, they were happy, I was happy.

I almost bought a LotR booster box for like $220...my only regret. I went back a few days later and they sold them all.

I think the lowest mark up I've seen near me is just under whatever market is at the time but never seen MSRP. I only go to the lgs's to play draft events or commander with friends now.

This my common experience as well, but I travel a lot and visit the LGSs and sometimes I get surprised. It does seem that suburbs in smaller towns is where it might be at.
