I get your point- for $3 bucks, the PF beginner box trumps the Starter Set, not argument here. However, in Amazon the Starter Set is $13 and the Beginner Box $26; at regular retail, the Starter Set is $20 while the Beginner Box is $35.

Regarding the Starter Set price, I do feel they've sacrificed a few nice things to keep a low price tag- for instance, I would have loved to see a different cover for each booklet, as silly as that sounds. However, these kind of decisions are not made by the game designers, they are handed...
