THE GW ROBBERY CLIMAX!

Actually the best thing about this whole mess is using Systran to translate the web page. This way the mat is being sold as... City carpet of City of the Dead women. lol That\'s right and the first line of description is just as great... \"This resistant sheet plasticized é perfect for your battles of Cittá of the Dead women\" So if you need to run a battle for the city of dead women then 20 euros is a sweet price.

Obviously not very much if you work in a factory in China.

Coming in on this late. I\'m not a GW appologist but if this was a limited run to test a market (and I haven\'t seen these things all over the place), the price they are asking could be closer to their cost than you think. I don\'t think it\'s unreasonable at all, you choice spend 20 euro or spend 30 hours painiting it, and if you want it that square and smooth, probably a lot more. Don\'t know about anybody else but my time is worth a lot more than that.
I too am tired of GW bashing threads. They are a business, if you don\'t like what they are doing, vote with your dollars (or euros, rupees, shekels...) and don\'t buy their stuff simple as that. Their market obviously supports the pricing they are asking or they wouldn\'t be growing as huge as they are.
Some just want to bash success, many small companies don\'t make it because they ask to little for what they produce and slowly fade away. I miss many of those comapnies, maybe if they had asked a little bit more they would have made it. Companies have to make a profit to stay in existence, and I for one want more options rather than less.
That said, I think many of GW\'s prices have gotten out of line, but I respect the business they have created. Yeah, I could bitch about it, but that would do no good. I just don\'t buy their stuff.

Forget about the reasonable price increases going on at GW, what about the very costly price of a block of hash these days. Or for that matter the price of a good quarter of skunk weed. Rediculous!
Good thing I gave up smoking many a moon ago!
Man, I think you\'ll find that the price on most things are gradually rising. Good thing I live in Taiwan. Beer is darn cheap. Off to the pub. So long suckers!

I shouldn\'t say this, but there had been plans at one moment to make from half a dozen to 10 of them for there friends. Haven\'t heard much about it since. Either it died off or they didn\'t want to make too many of them. Somebody who has sowing skills should be able to replicate it easily though since it\'s just geometric volumes sowed together I figure.
