MBaggese: What am I missing here?
Nuttin', Honey, Srellim is just taking up the banner for a commercial enterprise having the audacity to charge for goods and services, virtual or otherwise.
Relative cost of a mulligan with the cheapest Callaway ball is about 0.69 credits per hit so each mulligan is going to cost a little over 2 credits with a decent ball. Zippo with the freebies. :-)
*Ball hit source.
I have the audacity to suggest that a commercial enterprise charge the same price to each person for the same product. A mulligan is the same whether it's with the free ball or the Max ball.
If they were charging 1, 2, 15, 100 credits per mulligan to everyone, that's their business.I'm fine with whatever they want to charge if it's the same charge for everyone for an item that performs the same way for everyone. I've never complained about high prices like many around here; the only actual pricing suggestion I've ever made here is a suggestion that they offer a quantity discount on balls.
It sounds like you are perfectly ok, though, with WGT charging you an extra $1 per sleeve for your Callaways because you own the level 90 iron set instead of only the starter set. After all, the balls may be the same for everyone but you should spend more for the balls because you spent more for your iron set.
That's what WGT is doing with the mulligans.
