[QUOTE="Mr. Lobo, post: 2103964, member: 7694"] Did they state that at the release of the books? If they did I totally missed it - and I worked at a WotC retail store at the time. There was no mention in our store circle of that strategy. Could be for a dang good reason like, "Don't let the customers know we're increasing the price on this later." I DO remember they stated it a little before they jacked up the price because of all the hubub surrounding it. I think I was not the only one "caught unaware". I [I]know[/I] for sure that I got spoiled and my later and current lack of purchases reflect this. My reasons for this may not be logical or rational and I'd be willing to bet that I am in the minority for both issues. Thanks for the info! I must have gotten it at a slightly lower price (WotC employee discount). I certainly do not regret purchasing the FRCS in the least. However, looking back now, I'm very surprised I actually put out the money to buy it in the first place. [/QUOTE]
