What online store to buy from?

I've bought stuff from Taloncomics before, they have pretty good deals. But the cheapest prices I've seen are from FRPgames.

Thanks for the plug. :)
Since I'm local game store owner besides an online one I'm always trying to improve my service.
Also, if there is something you're looking for and you can't find it on my site (which happens more often than I like) I can get it for you as long as it is in print *and* I'll sell it for my standard 15% off RPGs price.

If anyone would like to call me my store number is: 214-287-8661
My email is: talon@taloncomics.com

I've bought from FRP Games I think around 6 times now (usually for small orders - $30-45). They're great, all around.

Really good about answering email questions, too. Most stores aren't.
 

I'll throw in another plug for Derek and Talon Games. Very personal service, great prices, free shipping on large orders--I've been very satisfied with each order I've placed there.

(And you think the two month $500 spree is bad....if I get this staff job at the UO library I just applied for, I've got just over a year of backorders to place--cross your fingers and get ready, Derek....) :)
 

I try to support a local gaming store... but god, I think WotC's books are overpriced. Like $30 each for the core books! So a lot of times I will order from amazon.com to save some cash. I'm a student and I gotta cut corners where I can.
 

I have to vouch for FRP when it comes to prices. I don't mean to knock the ENworld store in it's very own forum, but I purchased 3 items at FRP that would have cost me at least $10-12 more at ENworld. I often patronize my FLGS, but they don't have these items....
 


I generally use the ENWorld RPG shop or BAMM.com.

BAMM.com (booksamillion) gives you an extra discount (which generally puts the price below amazon) if you have a $5 yearly membership; for $500 worth of stuff it's worth it. AND they currently (and for the last 6 months or so) have free shipping coupons available if you order $25 or more of stuff. Drawback: a smaller selection and slower delivery on new stuff than a dedicated online gaming shop.

ENWorld's RPGShop I have used a lot, generally when I can't find something on BAMM or have a newer item that I want quickly. Usually quick and reliable; I've only ever had them out me on an order once (on a mini) and never had them pull something like sending me the wrong product (which TalonComics has done.)
 



Noble Knight Games is one of the best. I've used them to turn some of my older unused games into brand new d20 stuff that I can use every week. Plus, Aaron is very prompt and great to deal with.
