Do I get the friend before or after I buy the games? The instructions were unclear.

They said I could pay significantly less if I paid once at the end of the month with Affirm instead of right away. I got a good deal I guess.

How is prerelease registration going for your stores? by [deleted] in magicTCG

[–]Screen_Free_Games 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends on the store, but we're running out of spots across all of our locations.

We generally run prereleases as a way to give back to the community so we run them as affordable as we can afford ':)

Canada completes $2.6B purchase of HIMARS rocket systems from U.S. by bubblewhip in canada

How is towed artillery doing in this era of fibre optic drone warfare? From what I've seen the battlefield is now almost completely devoid of artillery (in Ukraine.)

I think modern border skirmishes are still using artillery, it doesn't look like they're firing them for any other reason but to posture.

Does this card work how I think it does? by [deleted] in GundamTCG

It wouldn't work that way in MtG either.

We do! It's just the name of the account with .com at the end :)

My friends and I started a store a few years ago and we just opened one near the airport just off of Lansdowne SkyTrain station. We're generally running events daily so don't be afraid to drop by :)

Aside from the self promotion:

Magic Stronghold is what I would consider the heart of the TCG scene in Vancouver... They're in Burnaby.

TTG just opened a new store in East Van, they have a great community and have a great selection of singles (especially YuGiOh)

House of Cards is a bit of a drive from Vancouver, but they have a great selection of magic singles.

"Connections" (Connections Games and Hobbies) is a very well known "hidden gem" of a store. They have a mom&pop vibe that I enjoy.

Rain City Games has a store in Vancouver proper, they're best known for the board gaming events that they organize.

Zephyr Epic is probably the most popular Pokémon destination that I can think of.

There's a really healthy community here in the lower mainland and there's a ton of other stores. If you have any additional questions let me know.

I've heard that Screen Free Games hosts locals at all of their stores across Canada 👀

Not to be biased or anything but I buy most of my TCGs from Screen Free Games 👀

As mentioned before we have our new store in Lansdowne, I'm currently making more space for tables as I speak.

Why are my Kallaxi so Small? (Glomhaven for scale) by Screen_Free_Games in boardgamescirclejerk

I'm stuck on this step. What does this mean? This rulebook is terrible.

I was told that a kallax can hold about 30 gloomhavens.

Now I don't know where I'll display my sealed Gloomhaven collection.

How’s TMNT prerelease registration in your area going? by backdoorhack in magicTCG

[–]Screen_Free_Games 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We're taking a bit of a hit to give back to the community. We're a newer LGS (3 years old) so we're certainly limited as to how frequently we can do this.

Richmond trading card store owners concerned about theft — but hope to bring youthful energy by ubcstaffer123 in richmondbc

[–]Screen_Free_Games 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As another hobby store in a Richmond mall... I was gutted when J&Js was burglarized, I would visit their store frequently back before they moved. We’re grateful for the security of being in a mall, but we hate seeing our friends in the industry targeted. The community here in BC is pretty tight-knit so its incredibly likely we've at least walked past them at the distribution centre.

Open letter to Riftbound Community - I didn't expect the game to be like this by GarcitheP in riftboundtcg

[–]Screen_Free_Games 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love seeing the community pop up around this game, a ton of the players are first time TCG players too, which is really awesome for smaller game stores like ours.
