had extra amazon coins lying around so took the dive, 2 leggos for me. Shame they were C tier

Old me would insta-buy this but I'm just not playing the game as I used to

Maybe I would buy at a later time if it was permanent buy option as classic new player bundles were, they are really forcing it with these non-stop limited time offers

Still, this offer is good

I'm no apologist but you can't really compare the evils of capitalist companies.

They are just playing the game and doing it well.

It is the system that legally demands it of them that is the problem.

 I think it's more about how you treat your customer. When you sell your products without a charger, covered by insulting excuses, then have them buy a charger, only to find out that it does not come with a cable, you really cannot defend them anymore.

I agree.

It is not the company it was but it is the nature of the beast.

On a capitalist economic model - especially when you are on the stock market and subject to the fluctuations of stock prices - the priority is necessarily the growth of the company. Any decision that is in the interests of the customer base is only made with reference to this priority. It is sad but true.

We can complain about blizzard and apple and amazon all we want but essentially they are doing exactly what they are meant to do - make money for their owners - whether they be the shareholders or a private group. Their behaviour will only change when it is more profitable to do so.

But we are consumers are caught in a position where it is difficult to refuse these companies our custom if we want to be a part of the world - choosing between google and apple is not a meaningful choice.  They have us by the short and curlies.  Essentially, it is one of the many reasons why it is easier to imagine the end of the world than it is the end of capitalism.

I am aware that this is a little grandiose considering I only lost a pound. And it was my fault because I wasn't paying attention.

But I do love a good anti-capitalist rant.

Don't get me wrong - I don't want to nationalise everything.  I'm not a socialist.

Why would I choose exploitation by the state over exploitation by the economy?

I am at least rational enough to be an anarchist.

Be careful buying from IOS.

It states £3.99 initially but then confirms £4.99 on the payment screen.

Unfortunately my fingers were quicker than my brain.

Never ever ever buy from IOS - it’s on average 20% more expensive compared to logging in from a browser window and purchasing the same thing due to Apple’s cut etc

 Stop buying Apple products. Google are no angels, but there is really no comparison...get an android phone/tablet next time.

Interesting - if you have a near-complete collection those standard card packs are a bit like buying card packs from the next expansion if you hang on to them, which makes this an amazing rate compared to prerelease bundles.

trying to get more cash from a terrible expansion

So a "dust"  bundle?

Didn't the majority of the player base get copies of the whole standard set after the rework?

No, they got a copy of the Core Set. Standard means the past 2 years of expansions.

You could also just hold onto them for next expansion which is pretty soon anyway

Just got 2 legendaries and an epic/gold rare from them, plus the free 1 legendary. Best value I ever got out of 5 packs.

200 dust and a Rattlegore for me

Same to me :D

We've never had standard packs before.

 The closest has been the Class-specific Packs, like rewards from Book of Heroes.

how about no?
