Something that isn't stated on those particular pages is that 
retailers ordering directly from Looney Labs get a discount off the 
SRP with a minimum order of $100, and they can apparently see the 
discounted price on the order pages.  (40% off?  50% off?  I'm not a 
retailer, so I wouldn't know.)

One suggestion that I would make involves the title of the Jewish 
Fluxx page; it currently says "Christian Fluxx" at the top of my 
browser window.  Also, for the benefit of people new to the game, it 
might be good to have a link from the specific pages to the general 
Fluxx page.
