[QUOTE="CTD, post: 408941, member: 7402"] [B] I know I have seen some Green Ronin there for sure. I'll check the o ther Osseum titles at my next visit ;) I will give them credit for depth of stock. They had darn near every WOTC 3E product, a healthy dose of Scarred Lands and Kalamar, and then an equal amount of lesser known products. I'd guess that the total is well over 100 gaming products. Not incredible when compared to the internet, but good for a store that has to risk something NOT selling and costing more than the profit. I was more or less let down that the guy didn't even know about your company Wulf. If he would have said "Bad Axe? I know of them, but didn't see anyone expressing interest and didn't want to risk stocking it. I'll special order it if you like, and grab an extra one to put on the shelf. If it sells quickly, I'll consider more of their product as it comes out." While the guy did offer to special order it, he also seemed equally interested in me getting it elsewhere if I needed a quick fix (said he could have it in a week or so, but I could go elsewhere if I needed it NOW). Maybe he was just too busy on a Saturday night in a busy store; but it was the wrong answer. I've worked retail, he should not have even mentioned me heading to another store. :) Don't take what I said as a jab at Bad Axe though. I know it's hard to establish a personal relationship with every retailer in the area, but getting your product visible on the shelves of regional stores is a big step toward getting the average gamers who don't read websites like this (which is about 75% of the people I game with), so I give it great importance.[/b] [/QUOTE]
