So I just made a list of 45 cards I need from my LGS when I go on Tuesday, most are for commander so I kinda feel bad for whoever is at the counter when I walk in cause they are from a dozen sets lol. Does anyone else get singles in bulk or do they get them here and there?
I don't have any lgs that's heavily reliable on having the singles I need so I just get what I can
I have on more than one occasion requested maybe a dozen differen cards at once. They're usually in standard so it won't involve TOO many boxes but it still takes a good 10min
I have no problem with searching for singles at places
Yes i take up time, but I'm also buying at least $5 worth of singles that usually would sit there for life
Exactly what Muggy said I built an entire EDH deck from singles that I didn't have 60 cards (I had the lands) it took me about 35 minutes and lots of binders but I got them. Too bad for them most of my cards are <$1 so the price tag was $35 lol but they don't care
Did the math, added a few cards, finishing 2 edh decks and pretty much built 2 decks from the ground up, about 130-150 bucks, I'm sure they won't mind too much.
I have been here... Although just last week all 3 of my LGS missed out on my money because they didn't have what I was asking for... :(

My LGS misses out on my money A LOT because they don't have good selection, nor do they sort their cards. I end up buying a lot of my stuff online.
My LGS has what I need, as long as it's Shards up.
I gave my lgs a list and they took it but I never herd back from them
Does anyone have to try and haggle with their LGS?

Only when I sell things, my LGS doesn't really let us haggle when buying.
I've talked with the owner of my LGS and he loves the EDH crowd that makes him dig for random EDH commons/uncommons because no one else is going to buy them :P
I tend to get the singles I need then and there, provided I have the funds to do so.

Tried a few times. Even had them look at other company websites to see if they could come close to that. They declined so I buy elsewhere. Every so often I will draft there but it has become less and less.

Never tried, but honestly never need to, looking at TCG prices and their store, they are about the same, sometimes cheaper. I would live at my LGS if it wasn't half an hours drive away. Literally the day I went and picked up all these cards, me and 3 friends played board games for 9 hours. Like a boss!
My LGS they give you the boxes and you find what your looking for. Doesn't bother me because I usually find stuff I had no idea I was looking for in the first place....... Who knew?
