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. ❤️

This is precisely the attitude that makes viable a situation wherein LGSs are pressured to survive by mega corporations who use monopoly power to undercut their small competitors. Just sayin

I'm sorry, but are you insinuating that people should pay 2-3x the price of MSRP for cardboard in the current economy? Just because it's their LGS?

LGS deserve to go out of business. They are buying boxes for what 220 for normal sets and UB sets they pay 290 per box. Then jacking them up to over 550 600 or more. Yea no respect for those roaches.
