That's because the price was suddenly jacked up to a totally absurd
figure.

Thanks,

A whooping 8 people ordered them from San Francisco.

The usual rule is never go below 18pt. 24-28pt is the better choice.

Equally important is contrast.  Use only primary colors and make sure
that text always is very high contrast with its background.

Black and white is the sensible choice.  I recall one
presentation that used red to identify important points.
It will probably lose much of its impact in the hardcopy
proceedings.  :-)
