The thing for me was when the minis were below 12.99 they were almost always an impulse buy, I mean at their original starting price of 9.99 I could get from 3 to 4 packs for about the price of a sourcebook, which, while not a great deal... seemed a pretty good deal. After the prices went up it got me to really start seeking out secondary sources for minis...especially commons. Way cheaper to get exactly what I wanted. Personally I think the price raises and (contrary to how it was presented above) the revamping of the entire game into DDM 2.0, had a drastic effect on sales. Even now, I look at this new plan and wonder what exactly does this offer me that's better than what I have now. When I first started buying minis, I probably would have been all over this, but now I think I have most of what I need, And it's just jumped drastically in price even more. Besides, I still don't get how the monsters are considered non-random...because I can see one that comes in the pack. There's still the chance that for $15.99 I'll only get one mini I want or need out of 5. Just doesn't seem like that great a deal when I think about it. NOTE: The only thing I know for sure I'll be buying are Dragonborn PC's as even on secondary markets they're going for $7 to $11 dollars each, so the WotC pack actually might be a better deal for this. Otherwise I don't see this increasing drastically how many minis are sold.</blockquote>
