[QUOTE="Treebore, post: 1399919, member: 10177"] If my desire for high quality product in exchange for my high quality money is the kind of "ire" you are referring to, then I have given my share of it to WOTC and others. Irregardless of the cover price. It is just that increasing the cover price along with the mistakes, instead of the quality/craftsmenship, gives me something else to be disgusted by. At least Mongoose has admitted they put out "embarassing" product and is doing what they can about it. That is one heck of a show of desire for integrity. BTW, embarassing is a word Matt used himself. I applaud Matt and his show of integrity. There are thousands of other businesses out there that need to learn from Matt's example. The only way we are going to get better product is to make it clear we refuse to buy anything full of mistakes. Otherwise, where is their motivation to improve? We cannot rely on them (business in general) to have integrity on their own. Plus, if no one complains, how are they going to know what is wrong to begin with? I do not "get" this apparent desire to forgive and forget bad product that so many people appear to do. IT is our money we are spending. It is our consumer right to get good solid product for our money. Being willing to say, "Hey, your product isn't good enough for me to buy it!" is not a bad thing. IT is what is necessary to push a company, or industry, to give us the quality we want, and deserve. That is what I expect for me, and what I give to my customers. [/QUOTE]
