LowestFormOfWit Posted June 11, 2013 Posted June 11, 2013 I just can't bring myself to purchase anything I wouldn't build myself if I somehow got stranded on an island with it. Quote
Guest ph4tb0i Posted June 11, 2013 Posted June 11, 2013 heh, guess they finally got the hint after all those messages about a lower price... Quote
ApesInCapes Posted June 11, 2013 Posted June 11, 2013 I just can't bring myself to purchase anything I wouldn't build myself if I somehow got stranded on an island with it. Is this a personal preference thing that you just don't like it? Otherwise I'm not sure I understand. Quote
RogerWilco Posted June 11, 2013 Posted June 11, 2013 Uggh.. Wish Amazon didn't collect tax in CA... Quote
Diabolos80 Posted June 11, 2013 Posted June 11, 2013 Uggh.. Wish Amazon didn't collect tax in CA... Same here in TX. Tax makes it $390. Pffft. If this set is around Black Friday, there might be better deals. If not, I'll probably just stick with the one I have. I got it cheap on craigslist, can't see buying any more of them for such a measly discount. Quote
ExoBro94 Posted June 11, 2013 Posted June 11, 2013 I am passing on the SSD. I don't have enough capital and I frankly don't really care for the set at all. The only UCS I actually like is R2-D2. Quote
Guest betsy805 Posted June 11, 2013 Posted June 11, 2013 oof. Just got the SSD and 2 helms deep. My wallet is noticeably lighter. Quote
hepcatpunk Posted June 11, 2013 Posted June 11, 2013 Think I'm passing as well. Too much gray and likely a pain in the rear to eventually ship safely once I sell given its size. Quote

I think If you have the capital you shouldn't pass, but I would wait for a more significant discount. There will be better ones. Also CA taxes suck! Quote
Diabolos80 Posted June 11, 2013 Posted June 11, 2013 Tax in my county is 8.25%, what are you guys in CA paying? Quote

I think If you have the capital you shouldn't pass, but I would wait for a more significant discount. There will be better ones. Also CA taxes suck! I'm not even mad about passing on this. And if it soars to great heights, I still won't be. If you guys like it, go for it though! Quote
JoshTX Posted June 11, 2013 Posted June 11, 2013 I blew my load on the cheap Imperial Shuttles this morning. I still have plenty enough for an SSD, but feel like I might be better off holding. I'll make a decision by tomorrow if they are still in stock. If not, no big loss. 1 Quote

buddytheelf Posted June 11, 2013 Posted June 11, 2013 Thanks for the heads up, but I think we would all benefit if most of us showed a little less enthusiasm and a little more self-restraint. 10% off is better than full price, but nothing earth-shattering. If we all keep jumping at the small discounts, amazon doesn't have any reason to ever make them more substantial. Quote
scottjs Posted June 11, 2013 Posted June 11, 2013 I had to grab one, this was my first and I really want to build this monster. Better to be safe then sorry right? Actually I will be sorry when my wife receives it. Quote
dimsumonly Posted June 11, 2013 Posted June 11, 2013 Tax in my county is 8.25%, what are you guys in CA paying? A great big 9.0. Quote

Blackjack Posted June 11, 2013 Posted June 11, 2013 I blew my load on the cheap Imperial Shuttles this morning. Come on man! Quote
JoshTX Posted June 11, 2013 Posted June 11, 2013 Come on really? Load = Cash I can't help it if ya'lls minds are in the gutter. Quote
Diabolos80 Posted June 11, 2013 Posted June 11, 2013 That Imperial Shuttle is pretty sexy, though. Not worth sacrificing a mint box over. You'd never be able to iron out the wrinkles... Quote
