It's common marketing sense. I can name several places within a few miles of WCCs office that will sell you their discs cheaper. What's the incentive to buy direct? Not much - they do have a very liberal return and tech support policy, but I don't know if that's worth the price difference to you. Next time, don't be lazy and shop around for the best price, it's not a publishers job to tell you where to get it. -- Dave Cornejo There is nothing so subtle Dogwood Media as the obvious Fremont, California
