Hi all, Just realized that shrapnel games is located next door in Cary. Does anyone retail shrapnel products locally or is it only Online? Thanks, Brad2

I think that board game is carried in hobby shops. All computer game sales are Online only IIRC. There might be a few exceptions in random used computer game stores and such though. You could order it Online, but tell them you would rather pick up a game from them directly to save time if you want. I think they allow that...

It would be great if Shrapnel Games could contract with a few national stores to carry their games in small supply on their selves.

Retailers like Walmart (Wallyworld), or a few of the smaller computer game stores like EB or even Amazon.

Yep it would be nice, for the retailers.

Like we have always said, retailer make money - for themselves.

When I was a manager in a computer store, the standard formula for pricing software was this..

Cost*2+10% Rounded up to the nearest $*9.95 (So If the store paid $23.50 the retail price was $59.95) My store had one of the highest volumes of software sales in Quebec. My secret? I rounded down instead of up. (the same game sold for $49.95) People would ask me how I managed to always get lower prices, I would just tell them that I was 'less' of a thief than the 'other' stores. They liked my honesty and always came back.

Neat eh? LOL

Cheers!
