[QUOTE="Callahan09, post: 6304234, member: 6721803"] I've pre-ordered all the products on Amazon, but unfortunately I don't have an easy way to know how much I'll actually be charged upon release! That's kind of silly that Amazon has this "pre-order price guarantee", but if I look at my Open Orders page, it only tells me what the price was when I placed the pre-order, not the price that will actually be charged to me. For instance, my orders page tells me that I ordered the Player's Handbook at a price of $39.69, and the Starter Set at a price of $15.98, that's a total between those two products of $55.67. But the actual prices *right now* for those two items are: $29.97 and $12.66, for a total of $42.63. That's over $13 less than the original price. I understand that whatever the lowest price is between when I pre-ordered and the end of the day on release day, that's the price they'll actually charge me... but it would be nice to know what that price will be in advance! That way I don't get nervous and cancel a pre-order, or something, thinking it's going to be $40 I don't want to spend at that time, but would have been perfectly fine spending $30 on if I had just known it was only going to actually cost me $30. If the price goes up to $40 before release, then I will have no way of knowing that Amazon is going to charge me $30, unless I happen to remember that I saw it at $30. I find that strange. But anyway, $30 for the PHB is a *fantastic* price and anybody who was worried about the $50 tag on it should check out Amazon for a really nice deal. [/QUOTE]
