The Soldiery Games & Cards Shopping Policies
To our valued patrons:
As you may know, Governor Mike DeWine has recently announced that many
Ohio health orders, such as capacity limits, social distancing rules, and the
mask mandate, will be removed effective June 2nd. In addition, the Center for
Disease Control has issued new guidelines for both fully vaccinated and
un-vaccinated individuals and the level of risk involved with various activities.
In regards to these recent announcements and out of an abundance of caution,
The Soldiery Games & Cards would like to announce that at this time we will be
keeping ALL current shopping policies in place. Given the difficulties involved with
verifying vaccinations and the current infection risk level present, we feel it is
best to continue operating with all of our present policies to guarantee the
utmost safety for both our customers and our staff.
In a similar vein, Wizards of the Coast has recently announced that they will be
lifting the suspension of Magic: the Gathering in-store play beginning on May
28th for stores that are both willing and able to do so. The Soldiery Games &
Cards would also like to announce that we will NOT yet be resuming in-store
play. However, we are currently making plans to gradually return to in-store play
operations as we monitor both the risk level for doing so as well as specific
guidelines set by each publisher for their organized play programs. At present,
we expect to see a gradual rollout of in-store events sometime in July. Specifics
such as which events will be hosted, what times, or the maximum number of
participants are still undecided and are subject to change based on the policies
of individual publishers.
Our hours of operation will continue to be 12pm to 7pm Tuesday through Sunday.
We are CLOSED on MONDAYS so that our staff can work on behind-the-scenes
tasks to keep our store sanitary and well stocked. During our open hours we are
pleased to offer in-store shopping as well as curbside service for those that do
not wish to enter the store or cannot comply with our mask policy. Customers
can either call or email the store with their requested items and staff will
perform a transaction over the phone and set the items aside. Upon arrival to
the store, customers can call the store again and a staff member will either place
the items outside on our stoop for pickup or directly into the trunk of the
customer's vehicle.
For the safety of our staff and customers, we continue to have the following
policies for in-store shopping:
· Everyone entering the store will be required to wear a mask covering
both their nose and mouth at all times. Those that are unable to comply
with this requirement are encouraged to take advantage of our curbside
service.
· Social distancing of at least 6 feet from other customers and our staff
should be maintained.
· To facilitate social distancing, the maximum number of shoppers allowed
in the store at one time will be 10.
· No public restroom available.
· We are currently accepting trade-ins of Magic: The Gathering cards with
the exception of common/uncommon bulk cards. Bulk rares/mythics will
be accepted.
We want to thank everyone for their loyalty and their understanding through
these strange and difficult times.
Best regards,
The Soldiery Games & Cards Team
