This new release schedule is a part of why I am having to close my shop (I own an lgs). We had Final Fantasy the first week of June, edge of eternities is the last week of July. People cannot keep up, I as a shop owner cannot keep up. I used to get a nice chunk of change from a magic set I used to improve the shop. Now it goes into savings for the next set's release.

Also I think a lot of people are moving to Arena instead which is further hurting store and paper sales. I'm sorry about your store closing though, that is a huge bummer :( I also have been unable to keep up with the release cycle for the last few years.
