[QUOTE="Wulf Ratbane, post: 408896, member: 94"] Sorry about your experience... Just out of curiosity, does this store ([i]Be A Gamer[/i]?) carry any other products distributed by Osseum-- Green Ronin, Thunderhead, Mystic Eye, Bastion? Honestly, though I love my fellow Chicagoland gamers-- scattered to the four winds as we are-- it's not really feasible for me to visit every store within 50 miles (as much as I might like to do so). Exposure to the retailers locally and indeed throughout the country is one of the things that I count on Osseum for-- and they are very good at it. A hate to see a breakdown in the system like that, but the chain of command is customer > retailer > distributor > Osseum > Bad Axe Games. Which is not to say I'm not personally responsive to customers, I just can't afford to "think locally" as it were. At any rate I hope you find the book before too long; if you happen to catch me at Games Plus in Mt. Prospect (a store I am happy to frequent as a regular Joe, and happy to recommend on the basis of their mind-boggling acreage of miniatures for every genre) I will be happy to slap my worthless scrawl on it for you. :) -- Sorry for the hijack! -- In answer to the poll, I wouldn't pay more for any particular author or company. However, I am very loyal to particular authors and/or companies once they've got me hooked, and I will go out of my way to pick up a new release from one of my favorites. First off, my purchasing habits tend towards crunchy bits and adventures-- I don't pick up a lot of campaign/setting stuff. I buy everything from Monte Cook (heck, usually twice each!); I buy nearly everything from FFG and Fiery Dragon ('nearly everything' meaning, as much as I can, as soon as I can afford it). I would buy anything from Kevin Kulp, too, if only he'd finish up his Of Sound Mind trilogy... Wulf [/QUOTE]
