30% off, or "why bother".

It might just be me but I'm seeing more and more offers for 30% off of retail for models. Most of the time they are not even NOS/NIB and they seller wants shipping.

Everyone on here is aware that with just a very little bit of effort you can purchase NIB items for 30% off retail with free shipping right? Obviously not going to list sites as that's against the site rules but I'm really confused as to who is buying old, put together models for 30% (or less in some cases) off of retail.

I agree that I wouldn't buy them used at that, but get that some people think they are worth it.

I always have to pay the shipping... darn shipping...

While I agree with you regarding GW items other manufactures not so much. Supply and demand and all that.

Definitely, referring to GW in this case in particular.

RE; Free shipping, it normally depends on how much you're buying. The break point seems to be in or around 300.

Yeah for sure.
