These should be around $10, no doubt about it.I had this exact thought when the email came through on this. At this price point I simply can’t bother doing another of these right now. They aren’t prohibitive, but also FIVE in such a short space is aggressive at this price point. I can imagine they need the revenue for sure but these are the sort of things that are cool bonus buys for me. If they live is still around in a month or two I’d likely throw it in with another order from them.
But launching five of them within a week (all with three month-ish pre-orders) seems mightily like WW needs cash right now. Fair do's, but I'm gong to hang ten and see whether these are still around once they're actually manufactured/distributed.
I have been in this business a long time. Now if I don't want to do a show, it's not because I got stage fright. It's because some creature from beyond doesn't want me to do the show. Now gangway.
