Ripping doesn't bother me at all. Whichever way they want to do it is fine with me. I love to buy fabric at Mary Jo's and that is the only way they do it. I have one quilt shop that rotary cuts it and the other one rips.
I wash my fabric before I use it so I really can't tell the difference.

I too go to Mary Jo's (quite often). There are several of the girls there that "rip" the fabric, but not all of them do. I have purchased several fabrics that I did not want "ripped" and they were more than happy to cut those fabrics for me. ANY fabric shop should honor the wishes of the customer, (within reason) - that is - if they want to stay in business.
