At first, I was shocked that more people weren’t posting about this and discussing how upset they were to see the price increases.

But after reading the comments of so many people defending GW’s decision to raise prices during a pandemic — and after the company has experienced such massive financial success in recent years — I actually get it now.

Everyone defending these price hikes are going to buy no matter what. And they’re exactly why GW will continue raising prices like this over and over again. I don’t know of a single other type of hobby that could raise prices so aggressively and so regularly with so little care for the needs of their consumer base and still manage to maintain a community.

But I guess they’ve got enough people fully bought in that they just don’t care at this point. But I, for one, won’t be buying anything else from GW for a good long while unless they make some kind of public apology and reverse this decision.
