gonzalo Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 The Squadron.com 50% sale sucks. Now, I know what is popular with one person is subjective but almost everything is sold out! What's the point of having a sale if the majority of stuff is sold out? If they want to get rid of the inventory they have because no one purchased it before then put those things on sale and do not waste our time searching through endless sold out products. What a waste of time seriously. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daywalker Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Funny, I was just there myself and thought the same thing! First eight items I searched for were all out of stock so I closed the webpage and deleted the email. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

habu2 Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Did you ever consider that items are sold out because of the sale? Maybe you're just late to the game and all the seats are already taken. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Perhaps . . . but the thing is, I was browsing the selection before the sale officially started and pages were full of "sold out" items. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gonzalo Posted November 26, 2013 Author Share Posted November 26, 2013 Perhaps . . . but the thing is, I was browsing the selection before the sale officially started and pages were full of "sold out" items. So did I. I even got another email stating the sale started. I thought maybe things got restocked....they weren't. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Well then that does suck. I got their email but didn't bother browsing their site. I would spend the holidays on the curb if I dropped $500 or even $250 on the hobby right now...

GEH737 Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Couldn't find anything I wanted - and I usually drop a pretty good amount on them... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wayfarer 30 Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 I checked five minutes after i received the e-mail and i found most items of desire to be sold out. Oh well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jennings Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 The Squadron.com 50% sale sucks. Not surprising, since the company sucks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Liberator24 Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 LOL!!! I was their biggest advocate until I browsed last night. Yep, they have made themslves quite the arse's! I like the fact that they have raised some of the prices even higher. My Favs list.... Rogar, the great Robert Goober-relli! Free Time Hobbies Sprue Fightertown Zotz ARC Sellers I would try to remember more, but I am so disgusted with the Squadron thing..... If they turn it around thrus at 12 mid, then I will retract but it is just sad. -Jim Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lancer512 Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 That must be a joke! Did they raise the prices before the sale? 1:72 Hasegawa Su-27 Flanker 'Shark Teeth - HE01995 Our Price: $70.99 Web Only Sale Price: $32.66 I can still get it cheaper including shipping and customs directly from Japan!

falcon20driver Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 You guys aren't kidding! I was poking around looking at what I would get if I won the $500 shopping spree. It's useless to win that right now, everything even remotely interesting is out of stock! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nerdling Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 Not surprising, since the company sucks. They aren't the best retailer. But sometimes you can get som dang nice deals from them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Dave Williams Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 I wonder if they are holding back stock for Black Friday. Otherwise, it's likely to be slim pickings. Personally, I'd like to see everyone ditch the pre-Black Friday sales. Just have a Black Friday sale or not at all. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
terrysumner Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 Speaking of, who's the "Mystery Person" ? I think you have to go to their site on the evening of 11/28 to find out the answer.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hal Marshman Sr Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 After yesterday's clue, if there's anyone who doesn't know who it is, he flat out knows nothing about WW-II. Happens I have a copy of the pic they used to black out. Knew right away, no clues needed. Hal Quote Link to post Share on other sites
