To warn you, I just tried calling one of the places in the list that was supposidly going to be selling them in New Hampshire and they told me that they where most likely NOT going to be selling them. So I would recommend calling first.

I buy all mine online. Either http://www.potomacdist.com/ Potomac or via Ebay.

Normally get a group of friends to go in on an order with me going through Potomac.

Online will always be cheaper, even with shipping.

You can google it. Any vendor with a decent google pagerank will most likely be reputable.

I usually buy my TCGs at walmart or target... typically they carry the current set plus some of the older ones. Not sure if they have one in maine, but Mayhem Collectibles carries them as well.

I would normally suggest dacardworld(dot)com. Their prices are always the lowest on sealed boxes and they often give extra packs of an older set if you order a certain amount. I bought a couple boxes a while back and they sent me 3 packs from the Blood of Gladiators set and in those 3 packs was a Foam Sword Rack. But right now, it seems they dont have anything from Reign of Fire available. I assume they sold out of their presale stock, which Ive never seen before. Get boxes of this set while you can, they seem to be selling really quickly.

Potomac Distribution is my second choice, but you usually end up spending a couple more dollars.

From a UK perspective, Forbidden Planet website is a good place to grab some boosters.

I ordered a few at: http://forbiddenplanet.com/105816-world-of-warcraft-booster-pack-reign-of-fire/

As someone else mentioned, I'll just be getting it from Walmart or Target.

Has anyone seen the Epic Collection yet, and if so, is there a specified loot card or a random one included?

I saw the epic collection at a Target, it was 30 bucks and it guaranteed 1 random loot card. $30 for 1 random card didn't seem worth it to me so I didn't get it.

Thanks for the info.

Remember that the Epic Collection has 6 booster packs, so it might be worth it, depending on the cost of boosters. Normally Target is $4 a booster, so $24 versus $30 ... is the random card worth $6? I'm leaning towards Yes. I wouldn't buy more than one Epic Collection tho.
