Where do you buy and why? (The Meta Game #37)
This week's topic: Where do you buy your board games, and why?
Out of the five following locations, what percentage of each do you estimate that you purchase your games from?
1. Friendly Local Game Shop (FLGS)
2. Local Big-Box Retailer (Target, Walmart, etc.)
3. Dedicated Board Game Website (CoolStuffInc.com, etc.)
4. Mass-Market Online Retailer (Amazon.com, etc.)
5. Other (Conventions, Flea Markets, Friends, etc.)
6. Kickstarter (Or other Crowdfunding)
For example, Chaz's breakdown would be something like:
1. FLGS: 5%
2. Big-Box Retailer: 2%
3. Game Website: 90%
4. Mass-Market website: 1%
5. Other: 2%
6. Kickstarter 0%
Chaz will discuss his thoughts on the topic, followed by a Q&A session about the topic, and anything else that comes up.
