Just purchased this month's Code 3 special, FDNY Ladder 49 Yankees Seagrave Rear Mount. With my reward points, I spent a total of $15.94, including shipping. My collector's club membership expired earlier this month, but still getting the updates, and got the member's price....

its amazing some people act like that over a toy company- they are in business to make money, get a grip rick, if you owned the company you would do the same thing to make money and survive, i don't see all the same complaints that first gear raised there prices higher then code 3 did. The membership cost is justified now to pick up a ladder for $20, all the people complaining about spending the $20 for membership should really look at themselves, if $20 is a lot to part with then maybe you shouldn't be buying the pieces to start with.

Rick....The idea was to use my last remaining reward points. I don't plan to renew my club membership. Got the L-49 a as gift for a friend of mine in Germany the next time I go for a visit. Haven't purchased any C-3 in quite a while, in the future, I'll buy from dealers or E-Bay. P.S. I think you need to take a couple of anger management classes!
