[QUOTE="Enkhidu, post: 989098, member: 351"] OK - I must be spoiled by my FLGS (The Bookery Fantasy in Dayton OH - check them out, they completely rock), because I'm buying the 3.5 books from them directly. Now get this - I'll be buying them for $60 plus tax, because I am a repeat customer. I've been reading the exchanges back and forth about the topic of discounts to repeat customers, and was surprised that no one caught the "frequent flyer" program that was outlined by Dismas, above. His FLGS gives card punches every time he spends a certain amount of dough. So does the Bookery. This is the way it works - each time I spend more than $20 bucks, I get a stamp. When I get 10 stamps, I get up to $30 bucks off my next purchase. So I have to spend at least $200 to get $30. It very much like the Subway Sub Club cards and stamps. Now here's why I think this works so well... Most items in the store cost less than $20.
