to retire a color?
I was really sad when I found out the emerald color would be retired as that is the color I collect. So I was wondering how you make the decision to retire a certain color? I know it adds value to the pieces I have, but will be sad when you eventually come out with new poses for the dragons and there won’t be one in emerald. 🙁Phoenix wrote:to retire a color?

We usually feel like it if a few things happen:
A. Sales really slow down for a color,
B. We didn’t like it much in the first place, because it is a pain to paint, or
c. We liked it, but have gotten REALLY tired of it!I think A applied to Rainbow as well. I had heard tha the rainbow never really caughton. Maybe because it was more money as the rest that where available
I have also been wondering how long Ruby will hold out since most do not seem to like the monotoned colors
I haven’t heard anything official, so don’t take this as fact. This is just my opinion, for whatever it’s worth:
Since Ruby is the last color in the old pricing range, there will probably be one of two things happening this year: a) the price will be raised so that it is the same as the others, b) the line will be discontinued too.
I personally love the Ruby and have recently decided to collect all the Ruby dragons. So, I will be buying them as soon as I can budget them, just to make sure I get them.
🙁 I was afraid of that. I better get on my ruby collecting, too.
It’s great of you to keep us posted with a dealer’s point of view, emerald. I appreciate it.
