[quote="bit1313"]Unfortunately, the weak US dollar and the 50% increase of the ISIS price has done it in for me.
I can't justify over $300 USD plus shipping from the UK for a puzzle. I was pushing it at the just under $200 USD... but now, it's just crazy.
I have sat back and watched the craziness with Sonic Warp for almost a year and I have to say that I am not impressed. Faulty puzzles, much hype about very little, even less solid communication. I think the day they asked for investors was the day it turned south for me.
And frankly when I saw the Treasure Chest game, I personally thought "well there is a spin on the investment need".
I think SW had a unique idea, but there just seems to be too much business sense lacking in the plan to keep this project floating and not p*ssing off the consumers and making us feel like we should have bought a $300 USD puzzle and felt good about it.
I total agree with getsis on this one. Sit back and wait... wait for the bugs... wait for the hype and see where it lands.
Puzz - you are a great guy and I know you and your team are trying hard... but there has got to be a fine balance between product vs. price vs. communication and momentum. This ride has been like allowing my niece to drive my car.... super fast... super slow... stop... fast... super slow... stop... fast... jam on brakes. Frankly as a consumer, I am ready to pull over to the side of the road and puke in a bag.[/quote]
I just thought I'd show up, bump my message from July back to the top. Now if I could only predict the winning lottery numbers!
