According to my math, it's gone down HUGE over the last 2 years. Dimwit.

You've been waiting months to be able to say that.

For what reason do they need to charge for such a card? 

Call me a cheapskate, but I think that I will wait it out until either such issuance is free to me or there is some tangible (and/or financial) benefit that would cause me to earn back such $10 within a reasonable period of time.

Issuing and sending a card to you isn't completely free for them.

This card is cheap compared to Bitstamp, Xapo or Bit-x.

>Bitcoin lets you be your own bank, thus avoiding exorbitant fees charged by middlemen such as CC companies.
>Coinbase CC is the most reasonably priced of all the grossly overpriced preloaded bitcoin CC.

Bitcoin Visa doesn't charge hidden fees Visa typically charges retailers. This allows you to get ~5% discount, whenever and wherever you use it. Not 100% sure, but would make sense. Please correct me if wrong.

At this time, seems to be the most logical solution....

If I were to receive a 5% discount or any other meaningful amount, then surely that could cause me to pay for such card under the belief that the card  will pay for itself.

Use fiat and get 5% cash back on all your purchases!

That doesn't sound correct. I believe Visa is a standard charge for merchants. Remember you're transacting in fiat, not Bitcoin.

I believe the card issuer gets the kickback (hence why every entity you associate with wants to get you to sign up for a CC) so it looks like they might be double dipping.

Which considering the low volume may not be that big of a deal.

I believe that was part of the motivation of my concern in the first place, and in essence I was wondering why I should pay an initiation fee (unless I am desparate) when the card issuer is already likely making pretty decent money from the various fees paid by the merchant.

maybe if it stays at 320 long enough we will suddenly all buy more.

I dreamt that I checked the price and it was down to $313. I missed by 3$.

This place isn't good for me.

Price is depressing on a depressing volume. The 48 results of the poll are depressing, and this time it seems Im going to be correct: voted 315.

Depressing winter is coming.

I love the wild volatility days. I miss the sun. I hate turn me into bearmyself mode. Im a permabull in the inside, wounded.
