Ok, with all the talk of, "Should I buy the DM's guide for 4th edition, is it worth it", "Where can I find minis for my game that are cheap?" I have a simple question, that will prefaced by the following:
Books I know I can find the PHB1 & PHB2 cheap by simply buying the special package that WOC (Wizards of the Coast), offers for about $35.00, equal normally to the price of either book by itself.
I also know that I bought it online at Amazon for $26
I am very aware as well that I enjoy having a venue at the local store where we game. I do buy drinks, snacks, card holders/protectors & have even bought some minis that he had there.
I am reluctant however to buy one of the new books that I do not have, for $34.95, plus tax, when I can buy it online for $26.95 shipped (within 2 days). I still want to support the store but need, not want to, save money, as do we all. So should I buy one or two books from the local store?
Miniatures This is pretty simple as he does not stock any new ones, sets or should I say has very limited quantities. I can save almost 40% if I buy them online.
Pro is that I can see what they actually look like before I get it.
Other stuff Paints, brushes, etc. At this time, he does not have any. But I do like having someone who has used them and knows what they are talking about.
I would like to hear any opinions on this good, bad or indifferent.
Some thoughts I have right away... I want it and will eventually get it. It is here, right now, so I can use it now. With taxes it is $13 more. I buy comics from the store when I am there.
SO what do you think?
