Print Catalogs?

[ColonelHardisson]

OK, this may be a strange thing to discuss or ask about on these boards, but hey...

I like print catalogs, especially for genre (scifi, fantasy, horror, RPG) stuff. Like the old Judges Guild or Wargames West catalogs, or the ones Bud Plant puts out. I like leafing through them; the internet is great, but sometimes it's nice to kick back with an actual paper book or catalog - it's not as hard on my eyes.

Anyone know where I can get stuff like this? Judges Guild and Wargames West are gone, I've signed up for Bud Plant's catalog 2 or 3 times and have not gotten one in more than 2 years, and I don't know where else to look.

Hmm...
That can't be good.
I still get mine.
Have you bought anything from them in a while?

I love print catalogs too because it makes me feel like I'm important enough to get something other than bills. You might try http://www.shopathome.com/ (they have Museum Replicas Limited free catalog offer) and there is a slew of links at http://dmoz.org/Shopping/Toys_and_Games/Games/ to check out. Most are switching strictly to online catalogs such as Bud Plant (I haven't received one for the past few years either).

Thanks for the replies, but Holy Cats! This thread is already on page 3!

It's been a while since I bought from Bud Plant, but I've requested a catalog a couple times in the past year and gotten nothing. I'm not going to buy anything until I get a catalog. I sincerely hope they don't switch to only an online catalog; I've gotten Bud Plant catalogs since 1981 - or 82.

Any other places I can get print catalogs?
