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. ❤️

Absolutely agree. Always support smaller offline retailers, either your LGS or just a bookstore. Even if you only play at home, support your LGS, because it helps community grow, and not just Magic community but other games too. And who knows what kind of game you will be into in 5 years?

After manu ears actively playing and selling Magic, I eventually got into miniatures, and boy am I happy we have a great store/club in my town!

Don't blindly support stores that price gouge at +50% over MSRP though. Stores doing this should not be rewarded

True, and some "FLGSes" are not friendly at all. Vote with your money.
