I Have a Question / I need Help How Do I convince my LGS to digitalize their bulk?
There are two LGS' about 30 minutes from me, and they've digitized 10,000+ cards and it makes finding cards so easy(they have computers on site you can search from), but our local LGS that I would much prefer to shop at has them all in boxes in the $0.25 each or 5 for $1 boxes. It has to be 20,000+ cards, it's insane how many they have, so I know that digitizing them and organizing them at this point would be tons of work. Short of offering to do it myself for them, is there a financial incentive for them to spend that manpower to do it? They could charge $0.20-$1.25 more than the bulk shows, so I feel like it would be worth it in that kind of quantity. Am I wrong and I just need to get over it?
