Hi Jason,
Thanks for posting about RSS here - we're currently working on an RSS
overview article for LEGOFan.org, but yours is a good quick introduction.
I am a little confused over the PS in your posting though:

The feed has the old and new prices in the description of the message. The
title of each entry in the feed is the set number and name only.
Here is what the feed looks like in my RSS reader - 'Feedreader'

- which is exactly what it was designed to look like. Are you seeing
something different in your reader?
Richard.
