The whole purpose of TLG is to allow other people to say, "I sell cards at 1/2 of the TLG price." ;)

The thing about TLG is that if I really need this one card, or a lot of this one card, that is not offered by everyone, that is where I will go.  Especially if I want a guarantee that it is mint.

Ken is kind, trustworthy, dependable, and awesome! He and TLG are a great blessing to the game of Redemption and have been for many years! As EmJayBee83 said, TLG sets the prices whereby there can even be such a thing as a "discounted" price...if there was no TLG to give a standard for prices, it would be so much harder to trade, buy, and sell! Thanks Ken and GOOOOO TLG!!!  :)

Agreed.

I appreciate Ken for setting the standard, and he is very dependable when no one else has a card or cards that I need.

In the past, I personally, have never been dependable on sending cards out in a timely manner. Knowing that I started just buying what I needed instead and always from TLG. Might be a little higher than single sellers, but I know they are mint and come in immediately. Also he has been very dependable and reliable for me, one time I forgot I needed another couple cards but had already finished my order, he didn't charge shipping even though I didn't say anything to him, shipped them all together, and it was last minute before my tournament and still got them on time. I'm saying this because as a long time player, and partial mod, I did not think this thread was titled fairly, and the idea behind it seemed negative. Whether or not that is what was implied or meant is different, just wanted to have Ken's back because holding up TLG can not be any easy task, and it is his job.

Righto. Notice how Ken doesn't even need to defend himself... He has loyal followers!

I have relied on TLG several times to get cards I needed. Much respect to Ken and everything he has done for the game of Redemption. Nothing wrong with a little competition though...  ;)

Those of us who have been around for a while remember when Doug Gray owned Three Lions Gaming, and Ken was the main person selling cards for half off TLG prices.

I was around for the Doug Gray era and I do not ever remember Ken selling for anywhere close to half. He we always in competitive prices with TLg.

I was as well, and I agree, but that's still not the point.  Two people used to set the standard when Doug Gray ran 3LG, it was Doug Gray and Chris Bany had another standard and people would take turns trading from both groups.  But eventually 3LG became the standard that most traded by.  There were a number of us back then like Ken that were in competition with 3LG.
