allo

i'm confused about the price of this wonderful miniature.

judging by the comments by dj-chuckles and paizo, i get the impression that the 14.95 price includes shipping. but when i add the mini to my shopping cart, it adds 3.80 for usps standard mail.

what's the deal? does the 14.95 include shipping or not?

The way I understand it.

14.95 is the usual price for the mini, which doesn't include shipping charge.

9.95 was a special price charged to Dragon and/or Dungeon subscribers, which doesn't include shipping charge. DJ-Chuckles was probably a Dragon/Dungeon subscriber when he purchased it, but a shipping charge of 5$ was added to his purchase, and he mistakenly thought he was charged 14.95 for the mini. Paizo staff replied to his complaint to point out his mistake to him.

Now, what I'm not sure is if the Pathfinder sub would replace the Dragon/Dungeon sub to get a 5$ reduction. Or if you can still take advantage of the special price if you had a Dragon/Dungeon sub before you switched to Pathfinder sub. If not, then you will have to pay the usual 14.95 and add usual shipping charge.

I hope this helps.

From the blog post when it was first made available to non subscribers:

store blog wrote:

Until our limited supply is exhausted, D&D enthusiasts everywhere can now purchase up to two of the Limited-Edition Sorcerer on Black Dragon minis for the price of $14.95 each. Dragon and Dungeon subscribers will automatically get a $5 discount applied at checkout, reflecting the previous subscriber-only price.

If you had a subscription prior to the mags going under it is still showing up as 9.95+ shipping totaling 14.95 or so (at least in my case not sure if this is correct or not) but when I am not signed in it shows up in the cart as 14.95 + shipping

messy,

Your fellow posters are correct. It's available to everyone, and the price does not include shipping.
