What We Stock (and What We Don't)
|
Every year there's a whole bunch of CCG's that come out and vanish without a trace into the Bargain Bins of Britain. Only some of them deserve their fate.
Over the last seven years, I've seen retailers becoming a lot more cautious about which new CCG's they order, and in what quantity. Sure, everyone's caught napping when you have a soaraway success like Marvel Vs, but at least you're only sitting on a display of Humaliens and not twenty cases of it. Smaller retailers edge out games by companies they haven't heard of - like Shadowfist or Game of Thrones - in favour of ones they have. Which is why their bargain boxes are full of Neopets, Star Wars and Hack boosters.
Anybody can sell card games. At Fan Boy Three we're looking to grow and promote the hobby, and to do that we have to concentrate our energy where it will do the most good. If a CGG supports organised play, has good word of mouth or just radical game mechanics we think everyone should try, we want to stock it. If it's just another attempt to make money out of an anime license, it better have damn good gameplay or serve as an entry point into the wider hobby in general.
If you've got a favourite game you think we're overlooking, tell us about it. Better yet, why not run a demo in store and tell everyone about it (we'll even give you a 10% demoers discount when you do).

If you're a serious card flopper, theres no escaping the fact that your hobby can take a serious dent out of your spending money. That's why we're encouraging top level competitive play by deep discounting our 30+ quantity booster boxes by 15% across the board.
We also discount sets of starters, and 24 quantity booster boxes by at least 10%.

Singles Policy
|
|
We try to keep moderately well stocked singles folders for any game we organise events for on a regular basis. But sometimes it's tough to meet the demands of our more competitive customers. That's why we're working with local singles traders like Russ at Dragon's Den to make sure that your singles needs are met at all our major tournaments.
