When does MM have their overstock sale?

By heychadwick, in X-Wing

Hi,

When does Miniature Market usually have their overstock sale? You know when they sold both Decimator and YT-2400 for super cheap after it had come out? How far after an item is out do they sell them?

I haven't ordered my Wave 7 stuff yet b/c I'm slack and I'm wondering if it's best not to just wait for some crazy MM sale. Or some other site sale. Birthday cash coming in Oct, as well.

yeah, waiting for a sale too to get all my stuff

Do you know when they do it?

They just had one last week and the Tie Fighter was on-sale for $7.50. Their sales usually comes at the end of each season (i.e. spring. summer, etc). Don't expect new stuff to be on sale with rare exception of pre-Christmas sales.

They had the Deci and Outrider on sale just a couple months after they were released normally. Just trying to figure out when they will do one for Wave 7.

I don't know either.

They haven't done that for wave 6 yet.

I'm guessing that it's whenever they need the shelf space. The crazy wave 5 sale was a week before wave 6 hit.

I would guess that MM seriously over-estimated the demand for wave 5. Not sure if someone failed to account for the fact that the vast majority of customers would only ever buy one of each. Wave 6 has never seen a similar fire sale and I wouldn't hold my breath for wave 7. Although, I will also probably hold off on a Hound's Tooth just to see. Not in a huge hurry for the flying sandcrawler to completely screw up my storage situation.

Argh, you guys are right on all accounts. Oh, well. Not sure when I'll actually get my order in.

ARGH wheres my armada.

That was one of their daily deals. So no real way to guess when will be another like that.

I think my new system is going to be to wait for Amazon and let the vendors undercut. I usually get it before most MM orders arrive, the price is close, and I get free shipping regardless of order size. Put it on the Amazon card too.

CSI had Armada for 54 last week as a daily deal...

very true. but im never gonna run a list with 2vsds after the isd comes out i think and nebs are still hard to play right and i have no interest in corvette spam atm. also would only be my 2nd corvette. so literally 0/3 ships interest me as a second copy.
