I think this is the correct forum.
I recently had been looking for a playmat, but the specific one I wanted could not be found anywhere, until I found it earlier today at abugames.com. Does anyone had any experience with them for buying anything, especially mats and supplies rather than cards (those I get through trade or LGS)?

I have bought a lot of things from ABU games. I highly recommend them. After you make your purchase, and before it ships, someone will call you to confirm your order is correct.
No shit, one time I ordered a Sword of Light and Shadow from there, and they ran out of english printings, so they called me to ask if it was ok to send me a french one (I didn't want to pay extra).
Its a really nice store.

They even take pictures of some of the cards so you can see what they mean in the description.
Seen the site before, it looks like a very good one.

I've spent a ton of money at ABUGAMES. I think they have the best foil singles collection on the web. Their condition ratings are pretty consistent and their cards listed at NM-M usually are in very good shape. They sleeve all foils. Their packaging is top-notch. Their customer service is prompt and has never let me down.
Their prices, however, are a bit inflated. Sometimes more than a bit. However, despite this, ABU and ideal808 remain my singles vendors of choice.

Damn it. You know what I hate about ABU games? They removed their ENTIRE alters collection. Like, they were REALLY good. I was going to sweep their database of the images to use for untap before they decided to remove them all and replace them with fucking shitty ass alters done by someone without much experience.

Really? That's disappointing. I did recall that they had a few decent alternates that I'd noticed.

Hi, I live very close to ABU Games and go there more than I should. I have bought many cards, packs, boxes, sleeves, and a couple playmats from them. They have very high quality stuff there, and are extremely friendly and helpful. Unfortunately though there prices are extremely inflated on a good deal of things, mainly singles. And that kinda sucks a little for me personally, because when I want a single I can go down there and they can literally get me just about anything I want, instead of waiting for them to come in the mail. However, I digress, they have great service there and I would not be worried about ordering anything from them.

Just an update, I guess, but I received my package from ABU and it was way better than I had been expecting. Would definitely buy things from them again.
