[QUOTE="JoeGKushner, post: 861896, member: 1129"] Part of the problem is going to be perception vs. reality. Ironically enough, I bet the people who complain the most are going to be the people buying Bastion products the most. They're not going to see the $3 being a major discount on the color vs. black and white. Take the poster whose already commented about 96 page sourcebooks being $20. Already you've outpriced them. How about the Q books at 128 pages? Even if the wordcount is higher, most people aren't going to be aware of this and have some deeper knowledge of the economics on the situation. Word count is impressive and perhaps some awareness ads should go up on it. Something like, "Man, I can't believe how inexpensive this book was. Look at it man! 128 pages for only $20 dollars. I bet you feel robbed now huh?" "Actually, this book has a tighter layout and if you'll take a brief look, will see that there is more words per page here than that book. Probably twice as much. Guess this is really a 192 page book eh? What were you saying about being robbed." "You have shamed me. I must commit seppuku." [/QUOTE]
