In light of the recent price increases made by Stern and JJP on their most recent titles, I'm curious how it will affect your purchasing decisions. Are you still considering NIB purchases?

I will admit that I love the Batman pin; it's gorgeous but not worth what they are asking. As far as the Dialed In pin, well, it's just odd, and coupled with the price (which I think is insane), no sale. I believe these manufacturers only see dollar signs and have forgotten that it was the collectors that kept them viable during the tough times. And how do they pay us back for our loyalty? By raising their prices exponentially!

I am voting with my wallet and will not support JJP or Stern at these prices.
