I already had Series 2 of River preordered, but I was holding off on The Time War, CDNM and Churchill Years boxsets until nearer the time. Guess I'll have to put in my order on payday. At least it's not a huge price increase and BF have given us a heads-up before doing it.

Yes I believe this is a first (at least since I've discovered Big Finish in 2013) I have ordered all of these already (well except Churchhill which is s range I decided to skip). I usually do preorder at announcement if it's something I know I definitely want but sometimes I do wait for more details. Yeah, I'm skipping Churchill for now, as well. Me too. I'm not too bothered, but it did make me hold off on Churchill. |

For me personally I don't buy a huge amount of BF, so £9 (I have no interest in The Churchill Diaries) doesn't make a huge amount of difference, but it's still £9 I could spend on other stories, curious that is only the New Who related boxsets that are facing a price increase...does this mean they are popular products and BF sees fit to increase the price for business reasons?, or have they not been as popular as hoped for? I've been mentioning BF on other Who forums whenever I can, but it seems the price/format does put more than a few people off at first, if they are not used to Audio drama... Shame there's not a bundle with TDORS,CD:NM and 8DR Time War... Don't know the reasons myself, but I'd observe that this hasn't caught UNIT 4, and in the releases included only the Churchill box doesn't cover classic Who, so I doubt it's about that. Every other boxset next year (excluding the volume 4 of 4 titles) is already 3-5 pounds more on CD than on DL, so all they're doing is bringing these titles more in line. |

I appreciate that Big Finish gave us some warning.
I had been holding off ordering some of these titles until a bit closer to the time. Historically I had always pre-ordered well in advance, but the Eighth Doctor in the Time War is still well over a year away and we don't even know when the next Classic Doctors : New Monsters box set will be released let alone what it will contain.
Plus the delays on the second Charlotte Pollard box set had tempered my pre-order enthusiasm.
However that is all in the past as my wallet is now £80 lighter!

I guess I'll order CDNM 2 later in the week. I've no interest in new series spin-offs so the other price rises don't effect me.
I was going to wait and see which monsters are in CDNM 2 before ordering. Wouldn't really want it if it is the Slitheen or the Cybusmen but I guess I'd get it eventually either way what with it being a Doctor 5-8 release.
