They provide more detail here https://peakd.com/splinterlands/@splinterlands/official-splinterlands-land-presale-announcement
$10 per plot at the start of the pre-sale. $20 after.
Full tracks of land have an extra discount.

$10 seems like a price I can work with at least. I initially saw these $7500 and $9500 dollar prizes and I nearly fainted. But indeed...these ten bucks a plot seem good! But you need to have more of them with resources to make them work for you as I understand, right?

That's where I'm iffy...
It sounds like a single plot of land can have a single building.
To make cards you need resource storage and production as well as factories.
My gut feeling tells me you'll need at least 10 plots to be able to do anything useful with them since they are randomized as to what you get...
I'm on the fence about what to do personally, I might pay with ETH and grab a tract... or I might ignore it completely...

Maybe, but a single plot maxed out harvesting lumber will have market value, since the guys with only one plot that has a Spell forge need to get it from somewhere.

True, if you aren't aiming to be self sufficient, there is value there.
I guess I like too much control ;)

But not everyone will be able to be self sufficient. One may end up with a dozen plots that all have the same few traits and still need something from someone else. Even with a a lot of land it may still, on occasion depending on the market, be more efficient to just buy a thing instead of doing everything from start to finish. I believe there's always a benefit to getting a lot early, but I also, have faith the devs can work it out to ensure each individual plot adds value to the game for both the individual owner and the project at large. I kinda have to at this point because every time I've lost faith in the past an awesome update emerged and reminded me I'm just one of the idiots along for the ride. I've been here since just before the beta release went live and at this point I'm convinced these guys seem to know what they're doing.

Update: Also, keep in mind that even if you buy an entire region, there could very well be materials needed that are only available from another region you don’t own. God help us all if a jerk gets all “the spice islands”. 😁
