I think the dealer would be entitled to make a small amount off the bonus card, it is not like the dealer/s will be ripping them from albums etc. To me it is similar to the case cards and you don't see a dealer who does a case share giving those away!
yeah but its 5x rarer than the rest so lets say its worth $14. dealers can sell the set with bonus card for $85. score themselves $20 profit and alls fair. this talk of $150 is mental.
I understand that the dealers could use these DCE cards to make some extra cash but if I were a dealer and I got some bonus cards, I would giving them to my biggest customers who purchase this premiership set from me. Id see it as customer service and building of a relationship. The little things go a long way!

I don't care if i get one or not. DCE is not a rooster so i don't want it. I want t2 sets one to frame with the jumper and the other for my own roosters PC.
Just to clear up on your comment with regards to the clive Churchill medal cards ...We the dealers are actually paying for the clive Churchill medal cards as the sets without the card from ESP are less expensive for us to purchase than the sets with the clive Churchill medal card from IKON ....Ikon would only sell the sets if they had an incentive card to make it worth while for them ....That is why there is only 100 sets being sold through IKON with there additional mark up ..Ikon would only sell a small amount as they weren`t willing to take a risk ...The remaining 400 sets are being sold through ESP to dealers without the clive Churchill medal card with a recommended retail price of $70.....It may be a bonus card in some peoples eyes but the dealers pay more for the set with this card so it is not a free card after all .....

to me the reason the sets are more expensive is that they are purchased by the dealers through a reseller (IKON aren't going to sell them for the same price as ESP because they have to put their margin on it as do you the dealers. I would believe they are using the bonus card as an excuse.
Geez.......where is Select when you want them back...........lol. You can't sell previous Select Premiership Sets for 35-40 dollars how are people going to feel paying 70 dollars just for the 25 card Roosters Premiership Set.....let along more than that for the incentive card.
Unfortunately that would not have sold the problem, Ikon would not stock the Premiership Set unless there was an incentive from ESP...behold the DCE Card, causes more problems than it solves.
