Trollandtoad.com have got their EX pre-orders up for Dark Explorers. Goddam it's annoying. Darkrai ex is $50! This is silly. Nobody knows if he'll be good. All is does is fuel hype and push up prices to silly levels before the card even ships!
Raikou was $10 (and $15) but sold out quickly. Tornadus in also only $10 (and $15) so clearly they're not completely well informed.
Does anyone else think this is a little silly? By all means charge more for cards that are better but artificially pushing up prices for unreleased cards to such ridiculous levels really grinds my gears!!
For the record, i like TT and i use them a lot. They're reliable, (usually) cheap and ship fast, even to the UK. I would highly recommend them. I just think that the Mewtwo pre-order debacle was stupid and it's happening again!
Here's my suggestion: Charge maybe $20 for all the EXs and then increase or decrease prices according to actual sales, rather than acting on and fuelling hype and trying to artificially create demand!
