thegoodsgt Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 I didn't take advantage of any Black Friday deals this year. Sprue Brothers was enticing, but I'm slowing my purchase of new kits. And other shops weren't offering sales deep enough to prompt me to buy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Thadeus Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 One of my local shops had a Tamiya F-16 adversary for a very good price. Didn't feel like buying it though. Weird. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Charlie D. Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 I wasn’t impressed much with the various sales from any of the retailers, although I did not be up finding a couple good kit deals on Amazon. Sprue was tempting but every kit I was interested in was out of stock (and I had to spend $200 to get a 20% discount) and as it was model kits only, once I got past the 5-6 kits I was looking for I stopped looking. I also didn’t like that all purchases went towards the $200 but only the kits were discounted. Why not just discount everything? Fill your cart to $200, get 20% of your cart. That I probably would have done. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dann Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 (edited) I agree Charlie with regards to Sprue i think most retailers like Walmart and Amazon are not giving good deals this year Edited December 14, 2021 by dann Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That I probably would have done. Typically, it takes a 20% off sale at Sprue Bros to even make it worthwhile. I live in WA state and get charged 10% sales tax from SB. Meanwhile, I can go over to scalehobbyist.com and get items for the same sales price as SB and only pay a flat shipping rate of $9.95 and no sales tax. That all being said, I was able to score two high priced kits that ultimately saved me ~$45 vs. buying from scalehobbyist. It really depends on the exact item. As for other sales I took advantage of: Reskit - 25% off Phase hanger - 20% off Flying leathernecks decals - 20% off Reid Air - 30% off Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fulcrum1 Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 Luckymodel had a pretty good sale going on, but I should be moving in the next six months and didn't want to risk it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
