Innovation First- What gives?

[Blair Frank]

After looking at some replacements/ bonuses for stuff that came in this year's KOP. Eventually, that led me to Innovation First. And then, I started screaming. They charge $7.49 for a replacement antenna for the OI! How is it fair for IFI to charge exorbitant prices when it has a monopoly on all of the business for KOP replacements? The "Chicklet" costs 129.99. How can an up-and-coming rookie team pay for something like that. Or worse, the easy to lose power supply costs 19.99. How is it fair to make someone spend their (not unlimited) money on an "official" power supply? IFI already has all the business, so why do they need to charge so much? It seems as though they aren't showing much gracious professionalism by charging 7.49 for a part that seems like it should cost less. I would like to know the community reaction, and also, what you think should be done.
