New Minis Prices

Don't think I'll buy more than a booster, maybe two. Far less than in the past. Price make a big difference. I will get the ones that I want off ebay or minimax (sp?). Less trouble and I get what I want.

Its been awhile since I picked up any boosters, when did they go up to $13.00?? IMO 20.00/ booster is a bit much.
 

I think the idea about purchasing minis online is a good one. Now I guess comes the hard part, shopping around for the best deal. :confused:
 

Well, I am a little behind in the game. Just today I got my first taste of the Archfiends set, and while I did score an Aspect of Lolth and a Vampire Aristocrat, more than anything I am disappointed. I still haven't seen the paint quality improve despite the cost increase. I read that the main reason was to produce a better paint quality. Mind you, I still fill that it is better than I can do. But like I said, I understood it to be that that is the reason for the cost increase. Even though the vampire and Lolth are rares, I am not real happy with them. Lolth looks to me to be little more than half a drow glued on top of the Large Monstrous Spider (and to boot, she's not even the same color as the other drow). The job on the Vampire Aristocrat is something to behold. His fangs, IMO, make him look like he is wearing a Hannibal Lecter mask. Unless the quality greatly improves I think my collection will stop here. It's sad. because this pack was the first pack that I have really been disappointed with.

Somehow I doubt they'll drop the price when the price of oil drops.

The price hasn't gone up because of oil prices. (A recent WizKids line did, though). There are other reasons, like more large figures/set, etc.

Cheers!
