I think those are like boilerplate inclusions. I got the same email but I didn't even scroll down far enough to see it.
I'm subbed up to 271, I 'd like to extend it further - regardless of the currency exchange issue - but it's not an option.

I am surprised BF only extended the pre-orders by 12 releases and they still haven't drawn attention to it. If not for the forthcoming price policy change I suspect there would have been another Super Sub offer by now.

Hah, I think I mentioned it above, when I asked Briggsy on FB about such another Super Sub, when I wondered why it hadn't happened yet and maybe because of considered changes coming up to the monthly range and he said that wasn't the reason.

It was stated at the time that the Super Sub was a one-off offer (which was actually offered on three different occasions if memory serves, but it always covered the same set of releases). I would actually be surprised if we ever saw another one happen (though if it did, I'd probably still have to pay in excess of $300 shipping for it...).

That Screenshot means you'll get the 12 release that start form 263 as it says at the top of the screen. Are you trying for a DL Only Sub starting with NO 264? because I agree at the moment you still can't do that [CD Sub works fine though]

On the old site, it would give you the release numbers, even if the covers were generic. I'd prefer that level of detail. And, yes, I'm trying for a DL sub. Not possible. Only a CD sub is possible from that release. This has been fixed. It's now possible to buy a download only main range sub starting with release #264.

Any info on the policy change/price increases that I may have missed? Things have gone quiet on that front and June is only a couple of weeks away.

Is this coming into effect from June? Possibly, at least that was what was said 2 months ago. We have not really heard anything about it since.

the way I heard what Jason said was that it would be at least 2 months delay (ie June 1) - while they worked through a pricing model. But I also thought we'd be told when the exact date would be ahead of time.
Given BFs patchy record on communication I'm going to make sure I have all orders in before then anyway, just in case!!

I expect they will tell us in the last possible minute because they could not get themselves organized on time and release a panicked, not very well thought out statement, like last time... but maybe there is hope they have learned something from last time?

What does everyone suppose the chances are that the price change goes into effect on June 1st?
I'm wondering if I should hold out for a Colin Baker Birthday sale (June 8th) to close the last holes in my collection of Sixie stories.

I'm wondering if I should hold out for a Colin Baker Birthday sale (June 8th) to close the last holes in my collection of Sixie stories. My prediction- it will come into effect on June 1st as if dropped out of thin air, there will be a badly worded last minute announcement, then an uproar on social media, followed by an apology and maybe (if we are lucky) minor changes to the new pricing scheme.
Anyone keen on betting against me?
Oh, and I forgot, there will also be emails read about this on the podcast (again) and Nick being more or less kind/ apologetic (depending on if he has a good day or not). Let's not forget that.

It doesn't affect me but if they did do this it would be bad form to say the least.

There will be a statement from Jason and Big Finish soon, as I emailed them directly and they said so themselves. What the contents of the statement is anyone’s guess.

My guess is it would change at the End of June After BF Day and possibly a couple of Range announcements? it could even be July after a possible 2O Years of DW Sale?

Well, if you are completely honest and look at it objectively, they actually told us in April that the prices will go up and gave us a grace period of sorts which was actually very accommodating from a business point of view.
I guess nobody is happy about a price increase, but this seems to be a fact of life now (as well as economic) and I wish they would just get on with it, so we finally know what we are dealing with and can schedule our spending plans accordingly.
I think it is this last minute uncertainty stuff that really grinds on everybodies nerves.
