It’s getting close to Black Friday again.  I figured it might be useful to have a thread listing the various sales from online hobby shops as they are announced.   Does anyone know what Squadron, Sprue Brothers, Scale Hobbyist, etc., have in the works?   I haven’t seen any official announcements yet.  

 

  I see Eduard is offering 25% for BFC members this weekend (Telford show) and again on Black Friday.  It can be worth it for orders over $150 USD because the shipping is free and they generally stock everything they make. Anyways- I figured we could update this thread with holiday deals as they are announced.  

 

Happy shopping!

25% off Eduard's inflated US prices isn't really a big deal.  I'd rather see them offer the same pricing they charge in Eastern Europe, since it's *half* the US prices, every day.  Even charging their EU export prices would be a bigger deal than 25% off their global/US price.  /rant

I hear you - Bf 109G profipack kits are cheaper through ScaleHobbyist than they are through the Eduard store at 25% off- but the selection isn’t the same, and it is awesome to buy overtrees for $15 USD from Eduard.

If you live in Eastern Europe, Eduard only charges you $8 for those overtrees, and that includes 20% VAT.  

 

You're paying a $7 'Foreigner Tax'.

Squadron is doing 40% off $400 which would be great if they had kits in stock....

 

This was very disappointing. I was prepared to spend and save but you're right, the stock is very depleted of Trumpeter, Meng, and many others.

Squadron was diappointing. I only picked the new Airfix Mustang, everything else out of stock that I was looking for or more expensive than Sprue even with the discount. 

 

I did well at Sprue, all told saved about $50 and free shipping.

I get the DACO newsletter and reidair posted it on his facebook site. Not only books are reduced but also decals. New books are cheaper, too. But not so much as old books.

Mig Jimenez has it on his website, you can see the sale on the left column. He has items reduced for 25% and 15%.

Yeah, I also looked though Squadron but everything I was interested in was "Out of Stock". Granted I was only looking for a few things as I don't really need anything but still...no joy. Oh well. I got a couple things at other places but like I said, I wasn't really in the market.

 

Hope everyone else did well though!

 

Regards,

Don
