I want to know, because it seems that most models or model sets are ten dollars cheaper on ebay. In the long run this would add up to a couple hundred dollars, especially when you have a horde army.
Also, about how reliable are the people who sell on ebay?

I'm FLGS, local GW shop and the internet stores (Waylands and Maelstrom).
So, I think I messed up your stats :(

My FLGS has 20% off on GW models and charges retail for paints/brushes/glue/etc. Some things like magnets are also 10% off.
Every time I *think* I find a good deal on eBay, I always check to see how much of a difference it would be from buying from my FLGS. If it's less than $5, I buy from my FLGS. If it's bigger, I go for the deal.

I've not purchased anything from GW.com, and AFAIK we do not even have a GW store in my State (AZ), so I'd say I'm a mix of about 25% FLGS and 35% Ebay and 40% online stores. Mainly these days I just buy bits, but for full kits and vehicles I try to use my FLGS.

Your vote lacks the option for independent online suppliers like Maelstrom Games or Wayland.

I only buy from local game shops (no GW in the area) and independent online suppliers. Does that mean I can't vote?

We don't have a local GW store, which is odd considering my city is over 500,000 people, but I just buy everything from my FLGS instead.

The poll left out online retailers. I don't buy from GW direct or my FLGS because they can't give me the price that some online retailers can. I do occasionally pick up something from ebay or the dakka swap shop.

I would shop on Ebay so much more but my local GW employee is just such a good guy. Like I need to send an email to GW about what a great dude he is.
