Melody, I was just wondering why gold is a “higher segment” price than ruby, even though they’re both basically one color? For example, the ruby male is $110, and so was the peacock before he was retired. Now gold and EmPea are both $115, like rainbow and Black Gold. Was peacock cheaper because it was so old, and now EmPea is priced higher because it’s a lot of colors, like rainbow? And is gold priced like Black Gold because it’s somehow hard to paint?
I hope these questions make sense. π I’m just wondering, because now the only color left with lower pricing is Ruby.
I’m not trying to question the company policy or anything. I think you could ask for even more and we’d probably pay it. I would!December 14, 2006 at 1:15 pm #488986December 14, 2006 at 1:20 pm #516499Maybe its inflation…
December 14, 2006 at 1:41 pm #516500Maybe. If you look at the Astral Castle Windstone Encyclopedia, the prices have continuously going up, a couple bucks at a time. But I was still wondering about the difference in work between gold and ruby coloring.
December 14, 2006 at 3:24 pm #516501Yeah…I remember way back when…LOL! π
The prices go up every year, but the amount of dealers go down…hence inflation is what I am betting on too. But doesn’t matter to me, next year I hope to double my income and become one with Nirvana!!! π πDecember 14, 2006 at 3:34 pm #516502Good for you, WSC. I hope you realize you just left a big opening for a snide Ski-ish or Nirvana-ish comment.
December 14, 2006 at 4:06 pm #516503I don’t mind…It keeps me on my toes! π
Ski buys alot, but she sells some of them too… π I don’t…hence the reason I don’t have my own store!! π³December 14, 2006 at 4:08 pm #516504Neither does Ski. But hey, if she did for some odd reason decide to open a store with her awesome collection, she’d be sold out in no time flat. I’d get that famous Circle of Old Warriors, and afterwards ask her what’s ailing her…

We forgot to. So, we either have to up the prices on everything, or just kinda inch them up on new stuff.I haven’t looked at the prices, so I really don’t know what they are now!

He tends to be the “If you touch my girl I’ll make sure no one knows you existed” Jewish Italian type…. π
December 14, 2006 at 7:41 pm #516507Hmmm, that’s milder than I was expecting from Nirvana.
Oh, and thanks for the answer, Melody.December 14, 2006 at 7:46 pm #516508WindstoneCollector wrote:Yeah…I remember way back when…LOL! π

LoL
December 14, 2006 at 7:47 pm #516509That’s more like the usual, Nirvana.
