But I think that if they're willing to sell it for, say 15 bucks to this seller instead of 20 for that seller, they can probably pay off all those people with those 15 dollars. If they couldn't get by with the 15, they would take 20 in the first place.I doubt that this will eat up all the extra some of those shops charge.A lot of those shops have problems because they either seem to have no understanding of business economy, or they're turning their customers upside down and shake them for nickels.I know for a fact that local stores can have decent prices. I get my D&D Minis at a store, and not only because I do want to support decent stores (and that's a very decent store), but also because he gives me a better price than even the good online shops around here. And that good online shop is also a brick and mortar store, sporting great prices and great service.What I want to say: Why should I pay more than I have to? Because the poor guy has 10 children to feed? Okay, but my charity only goes so far before it would mean me not being able to get what I want. If they want my money, they should not cry about those evil online sellers, they should fight back. They may not always be able to draw even with those online shops, but I'm sure they can make do with less than 50% extra. And I don't care about your rent: If you want more money, give me more in return. Give me service. If you don't want to do that, you can go to hell.Oh, please. Every time someone says that he won't pay whatever someone wants, the "we can't work for free, you know" line comes around. It got stale years ago.</blockquote>
