Lame. Guess we had an impact on the market and their actuaries decided they were losing money at the current rates.
Sweet a combat room, we won't take damage!

My local post office always tells me what a bargain I'm getting when I ship out a medium priority box loaded with tokens for transmuting.

All things being equal, it's still cheaper then Fedex and UPS.

Well, it's a good thing we have more options to transmute outside of using the mail. It does seem though like True Dungeon has been charging $5 for postage for quite a while. That's starting to feel more and more like a bargain and I have to wonder when they won't have a choice other than to raise their rate.

My thoughts exactly. What's the point at which saving money beats convenience? Ebay sellers are already reeling from recent increases but this is no small jump and will definitely affect small businesses.

That is the most annoying one to me. I use the small bubble envelopes all the time. Might just need to trade in person more.

I wish we had the option of dropping bulk tokens off for conversion to trade and reserve tokens at GENCON, or even at WYC or an Indianapolis gaming store TD event. Since GENCON is the only convention I'll be going to this year, I'll have to stick to mailing them in. My whole group was disappointed that there isn't going to be a TDC this year, we enjoyed it last year and were hoping it would be an annual event.

I am glad I mailed out my boxes when I did. I should have mailed them sooner, but I was sick with the flu, and was trying not to spread it through the mail. :S

as for TDC... I was kind of hoping for every 5 years.
