Legodog Posted February 19, 2013 Posted February 19, 2013 Stop talking about it and let this thread die. Oops, I just talked about it. LOL. Quote
CNH1974 Posted February 19, 2013 Posted February 19, 2013 Yup, time to land the plane. Or find a Red Baron set to shoot it down. Ooooo the Red Baron goes for Quote

hollywdbri Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 http://www.amazon.es/gp/product/B007Z8GMWA/ref=gno_cart_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A1AT7YVPFBWXBL Not bad but going to wait on a local (US) based deal. Quote
Guest AnnexBrett Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 http://www.amazon.es/gp/product/B007Z8GMWA/ref=gno_cart_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A1AT7YVPFBWXBL Not bad but going to wait on a local (US) based deal. Its not Euro however British Pounds. I mean its quite a mess with the currencies. Currently only express shipping is the only option to North America. The whole deal comes down to 199 euros for two! =PASS Quote
mahler24 Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 The question was should i buy more!! not whether you guys should! Im in germany so its cheap shipping for me...... Quote
Guest AnnexBrett Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 The question was should i buy more!! not whether you guys should! Im in germany so its cheap shipping for me...... You got your point As everybody says: 20% or more below retail and cheap shipping and if you have enuf space to store them, I would buy some more! And build one! Its a great looking plane!

redeemed763 Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 The sopwith camel will likely be a great sleeper set like the wright brothers plane, it hasn't been on sale hardly at all so any discount you can get is great. Quote
Grolim Posted February 26, 2013 Posted February 26, 2013 I like this set. Considering picking up a couple more. Good price, but yeah depends on shipping. Quote
Guest idunno101 Posted February 27, 2013 Posted February 27, 2013 Yeah, I found this to be a really nice looking set. It will definitely appreciate overtime. Quote
Brynanm1213 Posted February 28, 2013 Posted February 28, 2013 I bought 2 of these. One to build and one to keep. This model I think is excellent. I'm thinking of picking up a few more. What is the feeling on investment value down the road. 1 year. 3 years etc. I can't help but think its a sleeper Quote
stephen_rockefeller Posted February 28, 2013 Posted February 28, 2013 I have come to the realization sleepers are becoming more and more rare with every passing day. The last real sleeper I think was the imperial shuttle. Now at least a few people will be on to sets like the SC and let the cat out of the bag! The SC has been talked about quite a bit on this and other sites and the consensus is that this is a winner! Don't get me wrong about the the cat out of the bag stuff, no one here will be upset for bringing sleepers into the limelight.........that is really what this site is for. So the short answer is yes this is a great long term investment, just like all the other large scale models. Quote
Rich B Posted February 28, 2013 Posted February 28, 2013 Sleepers no longer exist in my opinion. SC is a nice set though. Quote
redeemed763 Posted February 28, 2013 Posted February 28, 2013 How on earth was the IS a sleeper? people have piles of them stored up, I'm still sure they will do great just because there is such a great market for the star wars models. The SC on the other hand could join the ranks alongside the emerald night as a fantastic model but I doubt it will have as large of a following. The wright brothers flyer and brown SC have both done well on the secondary market, but not superb, this plane is a larger set than either of those predecessors. Quote
stephen_rockefeller Posted February 28, 2013 Posted February 28, 2013 I only know one person on this site who has these stockpiled....there was almost no talk of this set until a few weeks before it EOLed. I see every post so that is how I know. If it was on the radar then almost everyone here would have loads of them right? Quote
redeemed763 Posted February 28, 2013 Posted February 28, 2013 If it takes 61 of them to constitute a stockpile, then your right, only one person does. I have seen quite a few of them get snatched up from the last toysRus deal and I know several people were buying them in the end of january as well. Quote
peeiempee Posted February 28, 2013 Posted February 28, 2013 I have to agree with redeemed. ISwas NOT a sleeper. I started in November. I got most of mine at 209. A couple at 259. I have 10. Unlike others I only bring up my stock to illustrate a point. Not to show boat. Quote
stephen_rockefeller Posted February 28, 2013 Posted February 28, 2013 The only evidence that I base my claim on was that no one on this site and from what I saw not many on any other site were discussing this set at all let alone discussing its investment potential. A moot point at this point anyhow since it has been retired and it has so far proven to be a winner. All my opinions so I hope no one is offended. Quote
peeiempee Posted February 28, 2013 Posted February 28, 2013 No offense at all. Just expressing our different opinions on and you are right, a moot point. I never post, but always follow. The MODS are always full of good insight and polite. Great job Quote
