So, I have messaged some of you with updates on our last couple of sets, and mentioned that the Savage orders would start in a few days. We were waiting for the info to show on the Diamond retailer site, with incentive rules for that book, as well as ratio variants and all that stuff.

After looking at what we would have to order to meet the incentive which was set REALLY high this time, we would have to charge about $90 per set, and would have to sell 50 sets to break even. That seems rather far-fetched and I don't want to start it and not have it go through and have you guys possibly miss out on buying them elsewhere. So, we'll not be doing this set. I really want to support this book, specially after reading the first issue this morning, it's EVERYTHING, trust me. The math just does not work.

I'm just glad it was pretty good, long and drawn out. (that's what she said.)

Has VEI officially jumped the shark with variants? :o :?
It's not that I don't have an avatar... I've just been working on it for the last few hundred years.

The highest ratio variant is a 1:50, they've had plenty of those before.

Don't understand the question. this has same exact ratios as Divinity #1s. My reason has to do with discounts and incentives retailers receive that allow prices for sets such as this to happen. What is offered for this book does not allow me to do it. That's all.
