I feel LRG has some values. I don't question that the founders are gamers and collectors themselves, and I do believe they try to offer products they themselves would want. The only problem is that many of the things they value as collectors are the aspects of collecting I've always found dumb and annoying. For example, some people loved collecting all the different disc art variants of Working Designs games, but I find variants pointless, and I think they just prey upon obsessive-compulsive collecting tendencies, which then leaves fewer copies to go around for those of us who just want a single copy. For another example, some collectors like limited editions to be as big and showy as possible, but I find that gaudy and woudl rather have an LE that's as compact as the contents allow (preferably in a size that matches other LEs for the same platform) and respects the limited space that many people have in their homes. I know at least one of the LRG guys is also really big on collecting sealed games, so they also try to cater to people who do the same (by allowing people to buy two copies even of games with extremely small print runs, just so the sealed collectors can have one to open and one to keep sealed), but again that leaves fewer copies to go around for people who just want one.

The funny thing about LRG's site is that we know they're capable of having drop-down menus on items, like when they sold NES copies of GALF, where you could select either white or green for the cartridge shell, yet when they have these games available on multiple platforms, with multiple different versions of each (standard, LE, bundled with extra items, etc.), they don't bother to condense it all into one page with a drop-down to select which version of the game you want. But it kind of feels like they're just listing things in that manner out of habit. It was fine when they had fewer items for sale at a time, but now they have a bunch of stuff available simultaneously at basically all times.
