Gee, just a 20-30% increase. What are GW trying to do, shoot themselves in
the foot? For a company that overprices itself already to suddenly charge
more AGAIN due to wanting to change the type of metal is incredible. They
must realise that their constant price increases will have an effect on the
amount people buy.

So, let me get this straight. They are increasing prices as a whole 20-30%
due to the new metal, across the board. Regardless of whether the minnies
have the new white metal or the old lead? Now that sounds like GW.
