In this current uncertain economic climate, circumstances beyond our
control have led to a price increase of at least a third on the cost
of the majority of our products. Here at Patriot, we are extremely
sympathetic to the fact that a lot of customers now have less money
to spend on products that invariably now cost more, and we are doing
everything in our power to absorb as much of these price rises as
possible rather than pass them on to our customers.

We have a long and proud history of supporting the Legend of the Five
Rings CCG, so you can imagine our distress when we discovered the
cost for a Glory of the Empire booster box would rise by a massive
50%, meaning a new RRP of £2.99 per pack. With the new expansion
being the first dual-bugged set, we feel that increasing the price by
this amount could cause irreparable damage to the UK Five Rings
scene. We have explored as many other avenues of supply as possible,
but to no avail.

Therefore, we have no choice but to announce an increase in the cost
of L5R boosters. However, rather than inflict the full price rise on
customers, we are absorbing as much of it as possible, meaning that
from now on, our L5R boosters will be priced at £2.50 each. We will
still offer a 10% discount on full boxes of product. Like every other
store in the UK carrying L5R, we remain committed to L5R and will do
everything in our power to support the game and ensure its long term
survival here in the UK.

Thanks for your time and continued custom.

Mark and everyone at Patriot Games
