[QUOTE="Mistwell, post: 6321536, member: 2525"] Again, you knew the $23 was discounted, and you knew the $20 was not...at best you can say you were too lazy to look up the discounted price for the one you were not sure about, but reckless enough to draw a conclusion based on information you knew to be inaccurate. It's not like you didn't know you were comparing apples (discount) to oranges (full retail price) - you knew, and did it anyway, and then made a judgement on it. So yeah, I think it's fair for me to criticize your opinion, and saying "just my $0.02" doesn't make your opinion immune to criticism. I am well aware it is your opinion, and you are well aware now of my opinion of your opinion. If that's in any way unclear - what you did was the equivalent of this, "The Pathfinder box is a horrible deal because the 5e box is only $12.65 while the Pathfinder box is $35.00, a 277% increase in price!" And then when (rightfully) it would be pointed out that such a comparison is not in any way fair, the reply would be "Based on what I knew at the time that was a perfectly fair comparison, I shouldn't be bothered to look up actual apples to apples pricing, this is the internet!"
