Another person I agree with. At least I'm not the only one that sees through hasbros bullshit. Not to mention all of the price increases. they started at 4.88 even before the recession. Quote me if I'm wrong, doesn't the price of general goods stay the same or drop if something is selling well? What's it called when you sell something easily available at retail for increased prices..... hmm? scalping! what do joes cost today, 7.88+? I guess all those increases help make that big shiny movie they made. Wonder when the adult fans will be getting mailed their free tickets to the movie they financed?
No, if something is selling, you raise the price so you can make more money, which is the reason one would go into business selling things to begin with. If what you are putting out does not sell, you lower the price and find out if people are willing to buy then, or if they just do not like what you were trying to sell. Also, financing of Hollywood movies needs to be and is in place before the movie goes into production, not 1 year before release. It also involves money raised from many sources, and Hasbro likely only put up a fraction which had no impact on the price of Joe figures. Kevin |
