I concur with Allen... try to buy at least 50% of your books from your FLGS
(still wondering what the F stands for)... it helps everybody... keep
Pinnacle happy, and the local game store happy..

Just a quick soapbox here - The reason the local game store doesn't have
any Deadlands is probably because nobody is buying Deadlands books from
them.

If you can afford it, and if you have a store worth supporting, you should
think about asking the store if they will order some of the books you are
looking for - the store orders the books from their distributor, their
distributor sees that they are selling DL books, and they order more DL
books from the manufacturer (Pinnacle) and then everybody is happy.  :)

Or - if you are like me and already own all the books - another way to
support your local game store is to run a game in there.  I guarantee that
after 6 months of running in a store that you'll start to see more orange
sitting on their shelves.
