Seeing some good prices a Amazon DotD right.

By StevenO, in X-Wing

Currently see the Falcon and Imperial Aces under $17. The TIE Advanced under $9 and the Raider for just under $65. Only lasts for for six more hours or so.

The Imperial Raider was at $57, so the price actually went up. Some nice prices, but the one thing I want is still full price, so, harrumph! Keeping an eye out for changes - prices have been dropping this last week.

And it went right back down - $54.74 for the Imperial Raider. Okay, this time I will bite.

Why are these great bargains never available in the UK? :(

Coolstuffinc.com has some pretty good prices this morning on core sets, Imp Aces and some single ships.

If only my budget was available, but it's been spent until after the holidays. Maybe next year I'll be able to score a Tantive to polish off the rebels (though I'll need to buy the new waves as well)

Indeed, totally agree with your sentiment... I did spot the Firespray and Decimator for very cheap last weekend (some stupid-good luck there!) - I've been keeping an eye on the UK prices ever since, but they just don't ever seem to be available in these wonderful US prices. But usually the only time the price drops is when there is no stock available (those two ships I grabbed were on sale and out of stock before the morning came around).

Now the question is, what else do I need to make a Decimator list happen...

Be sure to grab the TIE/fo and T-70 X-wings for only $40 while you have a chance! Only 267% of MSRP!

Seriously, what's up with that?

The few prices I saw yesterday weren't too bad although I don't need more copies.

Unfortunately I've been waiting on someone to have a nice big sale so I can catch up but those just don't seem to be coming. Maybe in two more weeks after Christmas has taken its course.

I know, right. It's because of Amazon's affiliate program. Other stores can sell through Amazon now, and when a product goes out of stock and only the affiliates have them in stock, the price skyrockets. It's quite annoying, almost as bad as ebay these days.

I've seen a couple of deals on Amazon with Armada, not much with X-Wing unfortunately. :(

I remember seeing TIE bombers and HWK's jump to ridiculous prices when they were awaiting reprints... can be very annoying.

Also S&V.

$54.60 now. Sure is tempting... But I only play casually and my dining room table isn't big enough for 2 mats :blink:

I ended up getting Armada for $57.80 instead. I have a feeling I'm going to like Armada a lot :D

FYI - X-Wing TFA Core sets are only $18.98 on amazon right now. Good deal for 3 extra ships.

I'm telling myself the Raider will be that cheap again next year so I don't jump at it now. Really want to jump at it now.

Now the question is, what else do I need to make a Decimator list happen...

Imperial Veterans might be a good choice. A tooled up Rear Admiral Chiraneau with Ryad in an /x7 Defender seems like a potent combination.

I would only want the Raider for the Palpatine card, $57 for a card when I'm not even yet proxying a Palp build... means no purchase still. Might be cheaper ways of getting palpatine. I have always wanted to get a Juno eclipse build but can never justify her over vader builds.

I did get the original Falcon and Ghost for 18 and 25 respectively. Also the new mats were quite affordable @ FFG, shipping is steep though.

Just checked and the Shadowcaster is 8 whole cents discounted!!!
