I ordered cases from gameoutfitter.com

I didn't have them on the Friday of the release, but got them the following Tuesday. My LGS wasn't willing to make any deals. I normally try to buy at the LGS, but this time it was just to big of a price difference.

There is no LGS anywhere near me. Buying on line is the only wat to go for me. Travelling up to London costs too much. I could buy an extra booster for the money I would spend on travel. Before I had a computer I made special trips to London for boosters.

I bought my cases from my LGS, the same shop as Dreadtech.

I prefer to support small local shops if I can, although I usually buy my singles on-line. I do check the sponsors sites amongst others to find the most competitive price going.

My LGS in Waterloo, Ontario, is awesome. They have competitive prices on their sealed cases (cheaper to buy from them than to import a case from an online dealer), and they ALSO have excellent prices on their singles. I left the store needing only 3 VRs for the whole set, after buying 1 case and a whole bunch of well-priced singles. I was a VERY happy customer!

I somehow missed this thread originally. I voted that I bought from Miniature Market, but I got 2 from them, and then 1 more from my LGS. I always try to support them at least a bit, but the price difference makes it tough.

For Legacy I'll probably buy one from each.

I always buy my cases from my LGS, if I buy a case over the internet even from a reliable site I usually get horrible pulls. But when I buy a case from my lgs, I get great pulls. So I just get cases from my lgs now.


My 2 FU cases are the first cases I've bought from Grand Slam where I didn't pull Boba.

Coolstuff. I've gone with them for a long time now, and always been happy with the results.

MM.

I would love to buy at my LGS, but as I don't play there, they won't do anything for me price wise, and they charge full MSRP, so each case is 6x or 12x booster cost. No love.

I don't expect a match for online price, but as I order 4-8 cases each time, a little help would be nice.

I used to buy all my comics, SW Pocketmodels, Pirates, and every SW Action Figure boxed set they get in. But since they just won't budge for SW Minis, I am rethinking my loyalties.

Sad really. I run a business locally and ALWAYS prefer to buy locally.
