I'm sure your on the right path here, but also consider huge delays in product release (sometimes months later than expected), the lockout, the only thing that killed was The Cup (over priced anyways) and Dominion (too early to tell).
Another thing that personally I am starting to hate is redemptions, seems to be one or two per box now days, and then wait another 8 weeks for a card? Thats brutal.
Lastly, I think the trades on here are becoming harder to accomplish because you've either gotta look through 90 pages of cards or the person wants an arm for a card. (People wanting to trade Upper Deck singles for Prime inserts and not expect to 'give' a bit in the deal)..... I personally hope Upper Deck sunk their shorts on the The Cup and how overpriced it is. 500+ a tin your better off going to a casino and trying 25-100 hands of blackjack....
