people were probably ordering a bunch and I guess they thought they would still sell at a higher price. They figure at $15 you will still buy some but you will buy less. Once you get them and put your cards in there you wont be happy with the cards that arent in them so you will want to buy more.

well if you add it up, the cases went from $1.00 a piece to $1.50 a piece, so its a .50 increase. Which is basiclly what the StarWars cases that look the same go for...
ya it sucks though....

Price increases are the "Hasbro Way" since they know that the collectors are suckers enough to pay whatever they ask for a given product.
$10, $15, $20, $50... How many people here will STILL buy the darn things regardless of what Hasbro charges...? The cases are cool since they feature the Joe and Cobra logo but I can buy similar cases from Wholesale Cases for cheaper than these... Mark my words: No matter how much Hasbro raises these prices there will always be someone who complains but STILL buys them...

I was on the fence about buying any and was waiting for one of Hasbro's 25% off and free shipping sales. now, I won't bother at all.
