I'm going to pass on this one, none of the titles really appeal to me, and the bizarreness of getting Vols. 1 & 20 at the $15 price just makes this seem like a "free teaser to get you to buy stuff, except we want money for it this time" thing. That seriously turns me off.
Oh I know why they do it. I just find it frustrating.

If they were having an issue with how low people were paying on average, they should just get rid of the whole average aspect of the middle tier and put a minimum set price in like their weekly sales. (StoryBundle does this as well.)

---And I agree on the random numbered titles. I know most of the books offered are usually to grab more money (first in a series), but the 1 & 20 is really over the top.
