Latest email from the MPC shows, at the bottom, the headline "Limited Quantities Remain" for Hunt for the Forgotten Tomb, The Lost Treasure of John Augur, and The Weeping Book.
When supplies of these are gone, that will leave Filigree in Shadow, Rise of the Cult, and Tempus Fugit as the remaining experiences.

John Augur shows as sold out on their website. Whether this is temporary or permanent remains to be seen.

John Augur shows as sold out on their website. Whether this is temporary or permanent remains to be seen. Same with Filigree in Shadow. And in an utterly bizarre twist, you can't order the brand new Taako Experience now; it only says "Pre-order window is now closed". More brilliant product management by the MPC (unless the Taako Experience was really designed to be a super-limited offering).

Confirmed on the "sold out" status. You get a pop up now that says "email when it becomes available again" so maybe they are going to restock? They have posted links to KiY, CB, and DJ with archived over top of them and the same pop up, whereas previously you didnt even see those experiences listed anymore. Was going to wait till I heard from people on here about Taako's but guess that won't be an option either. oh well.

Well that's not good. I was specifically saving Filigree for the holiday season, given as how they've taken to giving ample warning before something sells out / is archived. Hopefully they'll have a resupply before everything goes away forever.

Looks like it's back in stock and $50 off for Halloween...I guess it's time to pull the trigger.

Re: "Filigree in Shadow," from the company's website:
Note: If you’ve previously participated in Filigree in Shadow, you may notice a few subtle differences. To ensure the quality of the experience remains to our high standards (and yours) and in an effort to lower the price point, and to make it accessible to even more horror fans, a few elements of the original kit have been omitted. It’s also been streamlined for a more consistent experience.

It’s also been streamlined for a more consistent experience. To no one's surprise, this was the response (or lackthereof) I got when I went for more information: "Hello, I see that with the restocking of Filigree in Shadow, it now consists of fewer mailings and the mention of streamlining of the experience. Were elements of the story removed(if so, was it just ephemeral details, or actual plot points), or were the mailings just condensed to speed up the progress? Thank you for your time in answering my questions. I’ve been eagerly waiting for this to come back and was gutted when I saw that the experience had been lessened " "Hi Meghan Bondy, thanks for your message. We are not here right now, but we'll get back to you soon! " "I’m not Meghan Bondy, but thank you " "Hi Caitlin, the plot remains the same." so take that as you will I guess? at least someone answers on their Facebook page

Thank you so much for posting this link! I won the auction. Even with shipping it’s a good amount less than the new ‘streamlined’ version.

And Demon Jar is apparently sold out again. This leads me to ask, if the experiences are so popular when MPC releases them, why they don't sell for more on the second-hand market, like eBay.

Probably because the average ebay customer doesn't know what they are so unless you regularly check ebay for MPC items, or have a saved search for them you wouldn't really know. People are more likely to check various web forums like this one, or the company's website.
