10 here for CSI. I didn't know the ringside had it. I left it at my class for others to look at.

yeah, the grappling shinpads used to be $40 a few months ago and now they're $60.

Service keeps getting shittier, prices keep going up. Sounds like a good plan.

Not only have their prices on merchandise gone up, but shipping too!
I ordered the same products from them several times, and the last time the shipping was almost double what it used to be! To my knowledge, UPS rates haven't gone up that much so I don't know what their deal is.

Hmm....sounds like a good thread idea.

"What did you use to scratch off the CombatSports catalog coupon?"

I used the handle of a pair of toenail clippers.

both catalogs I received were for 10% off so I guess that up to 40% off jibberish wasn't true
