The Conversation Parlor / There comes a point...

...where you just can't stand it anymore.
Usually, it is cause by a particular deck, often limited, that you can't possibly get yourself to pass on regardless of financial difficulties.
You may start by adding two, maybe three decks to your cart.
And spend a while changing the quantity up and down, unsure how much you're really willing to spend, but determined to keep it to a bare minimum.
Then, after a moment of indecision, you finally can't stand it anymore.
The resulting order can look a bit like this:


Sounds familiar? Tell us your story. :))

Playing Card Plethora / Cards VS Boxes, and a price issue
« on: October 21, 2012, 08:48:48 PM »
Alright, I'm probably not gonna make friends here, but I think it has to be said at one point or another.

Deck prices are going up. Way up.
I'm sure everyone knows about Aurum. Most of you probably know by now that the set price for a regular deck preorder is $11.95. Why? Because the box is special. Are we collecting cards or are we collecting nice packaging? What about those who want to use the decks? At $12 a deck, do you think the price for two bricks would be anywhere near reasonable? I understand that the box is very expensive to produce, but if it brings the general cost up so much, I'd rather stick to regular packaging and reasonable costs.

Now I know there already is a thread about Aurum, but this isn't a complaint to Paul, what's really bothering me today is the community's acceptance of the situation. On the facebook update which revealed the Aurum prices, all the comments I see are along the lines of "Looks amazing", "I can't wait", "When is the preorder", "When do you accept my money"...
If you keep being okay with it, prices will keep going up with every release. Do you want this to happen? I certainly don't.

The same thing has been happening with Lance's decks (and uncuts, most notably,) with the price going up with each new deck. I have a lot of respect for what he does, but I can't say as much for his pricing.

That's it for my rant, take it however you want.
