Has the cost of Boxed Versions Increased?

Maybe I am imagining things but I have just taken advantage of the Easter Sale and bought the Campaign Series Middle East & Command Northern Inferno. As a collector I bought the boxed versions.
I thought buying a boxed version used to be + £5.00 not £8.00 and yet I can't see any reference to an increase. Which with two games at 2 x £8.00 (-30%)+ postage put my bill up more than I expected.
Forgive me that does actually seem quite a bit for a DVD box, a burnt DVD-R and a label as after all these two games don't come with printed manuals. If you were guaranteed a printed manual every time I would actaully pay a little bit more than £8.00 - a perfect bound book as Matrix produces can't be cheap to produce - but just for a disc is I feel quite a lot.
Couldn't there be a two tier additional cost for a boxed version. Or even better the guarantee you would always get a printed manual.
Don't flame me - thanks for the Easter discount - but as I say I was taken by surprise.
