Just stopped by my friendly local chart agent and they told me that
Jeppesen
isn't offering dealer pricing anymore, so the only way I can get Jepp
plates
is through a subscription.

AFAICT from their site, my only option (I'm based at BED near BOS) is to
buy
a subscription that covers the Eastern half of the country at an annual
cost
of $500ish. Or of course switch to NOAA plates, which i don't like nearly
as
much.

Am I the only one who's hearing this?

Nope. I've just switched to the NOS plates for that reason. They're much
better than they used to be, now that they have a Jepp-like briefing strip.
