There will be two tiered pricing in the SBR store tomorrow morning for ALL items. I believe the price will go up for non Pro's by 10% and down for Pro's by 10%.

So a Pizza, for example, which is 160 now will be 144 for Pro's and 176 for non Pro's, give or take...

If you are a non Pro, and have no plans on becoming a Pro anytime soon, get in the store now!

If you are a Pro, wait!

Wasn't there a thread about a price freeze for the year a few months back

Wow

I thought the prices were said to be fixed for the remainder of 2010????

Although as a PRO I'm recieving a 10% discount, the 10% increase for non-pros is unfair for NON-PROS, as it was stated prices would be stable for the remainder of the year and not rise in price.

As minut stated in post #2, a PRIZE FREEZE was instituted a few weeks back.

This current policy change should not go into effect until mid-JANUARY.

I see your point but shit happens. They are free anyways, no one should complain.

We are talking a 10% change in SBR points, not a major revision of the IRS tax code.

[70kgman]

What happened to the price freeze until the Super Bowl? I tentatively was planning on spending 1000+ points on somehting in the store at the end of this month. And tentatively planning on depositing enough to becoming a "pro" by November. So this is a huge setback to those plans.

Like I said, the new change favors a SBR PRO like me...........but I'm looking after the NON-pros.

To me, this is not fair to them.......clearly not fair.

[chilidog]

Yes, but it was posted by admins that there would be a price freeze for the remainder of 2010.

My bad. I knew about the Pro pricing coming out but I didn't consider it a price increase and kind of forgot about it until I heard it was ready. So I apologize for that. The price changes will have the effect of lowering prices. Pros are now over 500 and are getting double points.

The voice of reason... from a SBR employee.

Price freeze in the store for the rest of 2010

....effective today.

Tomorrow the SBR Pro upgrade program will begin.(details coming soon) Once you upgrade to Pro you will receive double points and other benefits.

The prices you see in the store currently will be held until the Superbowl in 2011!

Confused

Doesn't the NON-pros take it on the chin?

[samgurt]

it's all free for non-pros anyway...can't complain

[bobbyfk]

cool

[EmpireMaker]

Give Pro's a discount and leave prices firm as promised for non-Pro's. This is the FAIR solution IMO !!!!

[Dad]

That GPS unit will be mine in no time.

Fishhead, thank you for going to bat for the NON-pros. But really , who cares.

The real issue is SBR seems to repeatedly neglect their credibility in pursuit of more revenue.

[mikejamm]

Become a pro and get your name sold to several book's mailing lists, becoming bombarded by junk mail and unsolicited emails, and phone calls, while SBR makes a profit off every "pro" they sign up! Don't become a pro and the same shit happens only you get fuk'ed up the ass in the SBR store, you're left out of certain contests and promotions and you're considered a lesser from of community member on here. Thanks a lot SBR for running a fair and impartial system for all. Such bullshit! You need to add SBR Vaseline to the store for this royal ass reaming!

[sundin4prez]

who cares.... SBR can do what ever the fuk they want, raise the prices by 50% oh shit .....hell will be raised for 7.8 days and then everything will be back to normal.... SBR gives points for free, if they think they need to raise point prices, by all means do it...

[ronjon619]

they must have a quota from the sponsoring book.

[SBR_John]

Holy sh-ite!

I do apologize. Becoming a Pro will be the way to go. I posted a screen shot of the new poker coming out next week for Pro's and a really fun Jeopardy style sports trivia after that also for Pro's.

thought so too, until at least the end of the football season.

[playersonly69]

This is actually pretty funny situation!


But not that big of a deal from what i have seen. Most of the posters with shitloads of points are SBR PROS anyway.

And IF YOU ARE NOT A PRO, then why the hell are you posting at a gambling site?

[playersonly69]

SBRJOHN putting the SQUEEZE on for new deposits this week

[DeluxeLiner]

The discount for SBR PROs is fine but don't increase the price for non-pros. The prices were suppose to be stable till the end of the year at least...

[playersonly69]

SBRJOHN needs new living room furniture so he needs those affiliate dollars. You cant hate a BROTHER for trying to make some PAPER
