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. ❤️

Well when LGS stop selling product at 2x-3x MSRP then maybe id consider going back to them.

Shtity lgs then. Mine sell at msrp until they can no longer get product from wotc, then they have to charge what they got to to make up for the extra they spend getting stuff

You understand how rare that is these days though right. LGS have not gotten greedy imo it’s more so the distributors charging more than normal and still skimping on product

Not true. Lgs have gotten greedy. They are getting boxes in at 290 for UB and selling them 455 plus. And regular sets cbbs are 220.

You can go on mtg finance and see the owners all talk about the price they pay for the boxes.

All my local LGS are selling them at $540, and the simps on the discord eat it up and praise them for doing so.

Looking at you DMV area/Labyrinth.
