Over-reaching?

RE: Over-reaching?
Avalanche Press stopped selling Waltzing Matilda, Power of the East, Nihon Silk, Alaska's War, and all other ziplock and downloadable supplements several months ago.

Avalanche Press had Jungle Fighting listed at $5 in their latest Summer sale. I got two copies on eBay for $1.99 each and can't tell tell how many times I have seen it on eBay for $5 or less. For whatever reason, it just does not sell well nor does it have good secondary market value. I have not played it but do note it is ranked 57 out of 58 supplements. Personally, I suspect this is the type of product some players love but has not wide appeal.

Kokoda Trail sells better than Jungle Fighting in secondary markets but not that well either. I assume this lack of interest is also reflected in direct sales. This one ranks a 3.1 (46 out of 58) but I would not be surprised it's better than that. I think part of the issue is the first two scenarios are well below average and thus they may discourage players from attempting other scenarios (I almost fell into that category). The maps, while gorgeous, are not that functional; I found them quite difficult to read. Again, I think it's a sub-niche product.

I would not be surprised other supplements go out of print; I can't imagine Secret Weapons and Edelweiss selling well in the future when they are require so many products to play.
