Sideshow just needs to stop ordering so many damn figures. It's like they look at their pre-orders and order 2x more.

I agree, these sixth scale sales have really infringed upon the quarter scale collectors. Hopefully next year we'll see more PF sales.

Re: Current discount codes at SSC and other random rumblings
Not necessarily. BBTS has the same figures as are on sale at Sideshow for about the same price and I don't have to pay sales tax there. Shipping is about the same, if not cheaper as well. There are a lot of other places to get these from, even without going through a HK dealer. The main reason I order through Sideshow is loyalty, and that is waning.
....at full retail price.

Congrats on the get, man. The price is really tempting and I don't know how much longer they'll be available, but I can't bring myself to place the order.

Re: Current discount codes at SSC and other random rumblings
With sideshow you have a long window between ordering and receiving a figure. In that time other collectibles are announced. In some instances figures are delayed causing many items to begin shipping at the same time. I don't know about anyone else, but when I have three or more figures scheduled to ship within the same two weeks it is a drain on my wallet. Now I choose and pick what I can get, sometimes even canceling an order or two to have enough money to afford the ones I really want. If many people do the same thing that causes a lot of ordered items just sitting there, and Sideshow can't sit on product forever. They have to make space for new stock that they hope all the orders are fulfilled.

Re: Current discount codes at SSC and other random rumblings
I think it comes down to the price point of things being too high and how many are being produced.

And even with the excellent price point I am still having buyers remorse, It's a good thing I put Star Spangled cap in Flex so I can cancel him up to 25th if I change my mind.

Just picked up the Elder Predator 2 using the gobble code... after the already 10% off, free shipping and $30 in Extra Rewards I'm only out about $150 on him

That's just an incredible deal... I got them for similar price in October; and honestly they're worth much more. A really great set

Can't wait to get them! Is the Batman suit really that delicate?

I've heard that it snags very easily. Might want to trim your nails or bust out the rubber gloves.

Alex, maybe you can help me out a bit with this:
I ordered ED 209 last weekend (thanks for the awesome discount!) and this was what was offered, in bold:
It doesn't say "up to", it just plain states that I was getting $55.35 back in RP.
But, my account tells me otherwise, as this is what it shows as pending points for ED:
996/20= $49.80
Is this a glitch? Can it be fixed? Is my math just horribly wrong?
Otherwise I'm missing a whopping $5.55 in RP.
Thank you for your time, Ma'am.

Re: Current discount codes at SSC and other random rumblings
Alrighty... It's been over a month since Spook... Still no reward code for my pumpkin carving prize. At what point do I say something? To this point I have been patient and not tried to contact anyone, but I figured it might be time to at least bring it up. Anyone know the best way to contact Susan in a non nuisance sort of way?

Can the G033LE14 and other $20 monthly codes only be used once per month per account?
