Bulk rares used to be 25 cents (US) each. Now 35 cents each.
Must be nice to tack on a 40% inflation charge on bulk rares. Looks like I will do my single shopping for bulk elsewhere.

STOP using "dude/bro" as a pejorative or insult. Grow up.

Gotta love that 100% inflation in basically 6 months time.
They can sit on it and see how it pays the bills taking up shelf space.

I did. 25 cents each less than a year ago, now 49 cents each, that is a near 100% inflationary increase. Maybe I should try to sell them back but I doubt I would even get 50 cents on the dollar cash for them sold back. Just because the singles market is getting hotter doesn't mean you can gouge the customers, so I will not be buying until they drop prices.
Do you like paying twice as much for your things? Who would?

Just seems like an odd thing to get worked up about. If they were price gouging on something significant I would totally understand but it's 25 cents. That hopefully shouldn't impact your financial empire.
I've bought a lot of bulk rares from card kingdom. And I won't use them in the future. I'm not raged about it, it's just a matter of them falling out of the market. Doubling prices on something when .25 per card was usually more expensive than tcgplayer basically renders the place useless.
Is it something to get mad about? No. Is it a reason to never use card kingdom? Yes. So let's all never use card kingdom again.

So you wouldn't mind buying a 30 thousand dollar car for 60 thousand dollars? You wouldn't mind paying 20 dollars for a value meal that was only 10 dollars before? Scale is the same, you need to educate yourself on economics. So I will get "worked up" if I feel like it, don't tell me not too.
It is indeed price gouging as the supply of those cards is the same as before. Doesn't matter the actual amount it matters about the percent of the increases.

I would buy what I could afford. Be it a car or MTG cards or whatever. Sure the scale is the same but at the end of the day it's 25 cents.
And I'm not telling you not to get worked up. I'm just trying to understand why you have this level of vitriol over bulk rares for a trading card game.
To each their own I suppose. You do you man. Good luck!

Yes I will do me and be me. That is all you would have had to say earlier. You do understand 25 cents adds up though correct? Last year I spent around 750 dollars of singles from Card Kingdom. That would now be 1500 dollars. That is a HUGE difference, not 25 cents. Price fixing/gouging is real. Its happening here. Supply is up, demand is down yet prices are going up. Its not supposed to work that way. We agree to disagree and move on.

Not all bulk rares but I would guess at least 1000 to 1500 bulk rares. Playsets (of 4) add up. I don't play Commander.
