Well, it's been a little over a year since I spoke up about my frustration with the American Economy and attempted to do something about it for y'all. I wish I could say my post resulted in a ground swell of sweeping change that shamed vendors from every corner of the economy to slash prices and make life in America more affordable, more enjoyable, and less stressful. Unfortunately, it seems quite the opposite. The prices of everything continue to soar. Random fees are being added to bilk us out of even more money, convenience fees, employee healthcare fees, credit card payment fees. The US dollar is being abandoned as the global standard for economic stability. When will it end? Who will stop the insanity?

Well, once again, I won't stand for it and I am willing to do more than just bitch about it.

As many of you know, I was recently held up at gunpoint in my own living room. I was robbed of my entire inventory, many valuable and precious personal possessions, and the large majority of my savings. Despite this, my principals demand action in the face of so much undue struggle.

I am a one man show and have always worked to keep my prices as competitive as possible. Often, I cannot undercut my larger, more well funded competitors on price, so I work hard to make up for it by providing unparalleled customer service. I maintain no order minimum, I offer free samples, and I work tirelessly to fulfill and ship orders in less than 24 hours. Regardless, I still need to keep my prices low and my margins thin if I want to survive. And yet, when I hear from my loyal customers the hardships they are enduring as they apologize for not having the disposable income to place their usual order I feel compelled to do something about it.

I have said before that money is not the motivating factor behind what I do. In case anyone still has any doubts, I hope this puts them to rest:

Some 5%, some 10% others 15%. One major product, a Delightful Magical Treat that Delivers Mystical Truths via Deep Mental Trances, has decreased in price over 30%. The quality and potency of what I have to offer in this category exceeds anything you'll find anywhere else, and it is now available cheaper than everywhere else as well. I hope you'll lend your support by dropping me a line, visiting my menu, and placing an order that demands better value for your hard-earned cryptocurrency.

Thank you to everyone here who has supported me for the last two years. DBG is the only venue I participate in for non-local business. I love this place and the people I've met here. You have my loyalty and my devotion. I have received enormous generosity and support in my most needful times from members of this community and am eager to find more opportunities to return those favors. Beyond the normal course of business if there is anything anyone reading this needs that I may be able to provide, please do not hesitate to ask.

Stay safe, stay positive, stay gold,
Cal
 
Too bad my shoutbox post got deleted by admin. Was hoping more random people would find their way here.
 
Jesus thank you!!! Or wait.... Cal thank you!!!!!!! God you seriously never fail to be the goat in every aspect like your seriously the fuckin man and I truly thank God or whoever's up there that your here with us! Your such a blessing 🙏🙏🙏💛💛💛
 
Chemical offerings without greed and accompanied with gratitude will up your karmic energy for sure to astronomical levels..
It's nice to see how you have channeled the negative experience into something positive and when you start living through your heart and not your mind, everything can be done because of love.
Youre the best Cal, 💜🙏
 
Dude, I love humans beings like you! Some pretty nice personas on here. And from what I’ve heard you are as genuine as the rest I refer to. Economically sensitive to his people! I hope you become an even bigger (and better) humanitarian. Because our world could always use more of this kinda “fellow love” mentality! Keep shining bright Mr fresh! …now to peep those transcendental tools out. lol I love guys/gals like this.
 
I haven't placed an order with Cal yet but from my interactions with him and posts like this, seems like a really good dude who I look forward to working with
 
Dude, it's so rare to ever come across other humans that care about people like you do. After everything you’ve been through recently, most people would’ve raised prices, become cold and cynical, or just checked out completely. But instead, you did the exact opposite… lowered prices AGAIN. Like, what? Lol.

It speaks so much to your character. You've become my go to vendor because I can trust you and your word and your comics for authenticity and don't have to worry about stupid drama or excuses.

The way you care about us as customers proves it's not about the money, it’s about the people! Damn the man! Save the Empire!, ya know?!
(If you don't get that quote, you're missing out lol)

Anyway, I'm rambling but man we all see your generosity, your loyalty, and the way you go above and beyond and because those things we’re not just customers, we’re fans.

So Cal, in a world full of jackasses, thanks for being more like a phoenix rising up out of the ashes or maybe even a badass dragon breathing fire to destroy greed and overpriced comics.

Lol cheesy maybe but I don't care. You rock dude. Thanks for lowering prices fr!
