Yes, but we are talking about 2 different things here -- odds versus supply. I think we're both correct. The odds for the SPs have not changed. The size of the product run has. So while there may be...

I'm not sure what you mean by that. Published odds show these at 8 per box, as they've been for many years. You may be thinking of the Image Variations. I'm talking about the "standard" high number...

Thanks -- I don't remember this happening back then. Did you pursue any recourse at that time, or is that a dead end?

This is exactly right. Bake it into the shipping cost in your listing, upgrade to bubble mailer on your end if it ends over $20, and sleep well at night. By far the easiest approach.

If that's going to be the new normal, then it's going to be a logistical game-changer for those accustomed to pre-listing anything at all timed to release dates. I'm not saying that, in and of...

+$500 for jumbo and roughly $800 for hobby over the original prices. That's quite an increase within a 48 hour span. Congrats to those who got in right away.
