I'm on there a lot as wraith808 also. Very lively community, and I've been introduced to a lot of board games. I've also sold on the marketplace, and it is a very good place to sell, though not as well traveled as eBay of course.

If you want to review board games, i just saw this post at a good site -- so if you are interested in becoming a board game reviewer..
"In a June 2009 column on my approach to writing game reviews, I mentioned that I have stacks of comped games waiting to be reviewed. Rather than have those games sit forever and a day until I have time to play them all, I thought it best to solicit reviewers who would be willing to tackle one or more of these games as well as future releases. What am I looking for in a game reviewer? "

Hey guys, you have some neat info for board games.
Just a little correction: 1000 Blank White Cards change their website, now its http://1000bwc.org
Since Geocities is down, this one is not in use anymore:

"The Geek" is an excellent site.
I have been a member for a long time (have my entire collection of games logged on the site) and use it as a resource each time I consider purchasing a new game to add to the pile.
For those other 'serious gamers' the best prices for new boardgames is at CoolStuffInc dot com.
I have the luxury of being able to drive down the their immense warehouse and 'browse'. But even with shipping you will not find better prices anywhere on the Internet! And, they have a 'customer loyalty' program that beats FunAgainGames; each time you make a purchase the dollar amount affects a tiered scale of discount percentage on future purchases.

They don't have a loyalty bonus or anything, but their prices are lower, and free shipping on purchases over $125. Not lower *all* the time, but most of the time, IME.
Some distributors (FRED frex) will be more... I'm not sure how they do it. But the regular distributors are usually less.
