Lets hope this was an isolated incident and prices stay the same. | |

I'm gonna have to stick to one MOC that we can both gawk at! This is truly BS. A great point also with the comic packs! They haven't gone up in price, so this price hike may not be attributed to fuel. It may just be that Hasbro/retailers view these single carded figs as a gold mine and want to reap as much benefit as they can off of em. | |

I really want to vent about the situation, but it's too easy for politics to creep into the argument. -_-; | |
