My issue isn’t so much the tiers and early access and all that. My issue is that I want the special FLGS covers, which aren’t part of the preorder.
So if I want both hard copies and the DDB versions, I have to pay full price for both because the digital + physical bundle with the discounted prices only applies to the standard cover books.
When I bought my copy of the Theros book from my FLGS, I was given a discount code for the DDB version. It would be nice if they would continue that practice, especially for the FLGS exclusive versions.
