A friend of mine owns this and, given my lukewarm feelings about it, it was an easy decision for me to trade the copy I had just picked up in one of those cheap sales for something OOP. The game I picked up was worth about the same as a new copy of Dominion, and it's probably just as repetitive but IMO less prone to the luck of your shuffle and more interactive.
That's another thing that bothered me about Dominion. It's not the amount of shuffling, but the pure luck of how your own stack of cards is shuffled. The order in which the cards enter players' hands can really dictate who wins. There are things you can do to affect the order (by reducing the number of cards in your stack) but those are somewhat limited.
