For a prize, I just wish they would let me use all my GC's on 1 item so I can pick up a PF or something for the shipping cost.

 

[FLOSI]

I've been involved in some funny threads that see their way locked.

Though I my be a newb I've read at least a dozen of those....

When does newb status go away, anyway? After a year? After a few thousand posts? Etc....

bossk i can see...
the chainsaw was just hyped up. think of how many they must be sitting on at the moment.

This is absolutely true, I don't even know what I'm going to do with the one I won when it arrives...I was a sucker for the hype

 

[icruise]

i wonder how many items were sold due to the spook discounts? i have not even been tempted once.

That pretty much seems to be the norm. I don't think I've ever bought anything during spooktacular due to a discount, because it's usually still higher than you can get the item for elsewhere (although it's nice for exclusive items on occasion). But not everyone follows collectibles as closely as we do, so I imagine that people do buy things because of the discounts.

You forgot 10% FUN!!

Fun is reading the forums during events LOL so the best 10% by far this spook ...

 

[El Skutto]

Give me $120 off the Conan ex. PF, Sideshow, and you've got a sale.

All the discounts are for stuff that's on the GC list already.... So many of us have already had months to pull the trigger on these items. We're just not the target consumers, I guess.

What are the chances that the PPO tomorrow is not Darth Talon and Sideshow really surprises us?
