People buy UGC's from mediashevling? I thought everyone got them from ebayers who make a profit off the hard work people that contribute here did? I mean, come on, you get a "Archival" Case!

The new price is the only price I've ever known. They are less then $1 a case still so I can live with that.

I can as well, 20 bucks is quite the difference for me though! As I have a somewhat Tight Budget! I was just A bit Surprised is all

the First Time I ordered some it came to about 62 after Shipping, so that does seem like quite the increase in Price from 62 and now its about 90 something.......so sad

Last time I ordered them I payed $70 after shipping. There has to be better options that exist today

And it was reported months earlier when the price actually changed many of us order these on a pretty regular basis. In fact, I gotta order 200-300 more this week :/

I bet they don't have a pickup option, and if they do, they will likely still charge 10 bucks or so. That's typically how non-retail business works :(

Cost me 132.00 USD, the Shipping and fees cost more than the cases themselves. Fortunately (or perhaps unfortunately) I only need 10 of the things, so I figure if I sell half of them for a couple bucks a piece I can make my money back.

Oh I can only laugh as I remember this logic.  I "only" needed about 120 once when I bought 200.  Never ended up selling any and another 100 are on the way!
