I live in a particularly rural area not part of the continental US. As such, we don't have a FLGS. Hell, the 20 or so of us that make up our extended gaming group pretty much are the only hardcore gamers in the area. So for a person like me, who generally has to pay egregious shipping costs (as the vast majority of online stores refuse to ship via anything less than FedEx or UPS 2-day with exorbitant markups) already for his gaming materials, this just makes things that much more expensive for me, and will cause me to point my limited funds in other directions.

There's a reason why we play Warmachine and not Warhammer.
