voltio Posted December 2, 2008 Posted December 2, 2008 Amazon.com in the US has the 7676 Republic Gunship on sale for $90, free shipping, and "bonus savings" of $23 off of that for a total price of $67. Other clone wars sets are on sale, but it is not publicized very well so be sure to click around to find exactly what is on sale. I also saw: UCS Falcon for $450, free shipping, bonus savings which brought total to about $405 AT-AP Podwalker with total price of $22.50 7661 Jedi Starfighter, 7657 Imperial Landing craft at similar savings. Check it out!
dj2005 Posted December 2, 2008 Posted December 2, 2008 Thank you very much for the news. Looks like more than SW are on sale with the 25% off.
Patriot720 Posted December 3, 2008 Posted December 3, 2008 Wow! Those are some good deals, I might even get another Republic Gunship

Athos Posted December 3, 2008 Posted December 3, 2008 Hmmmm, I'm not seeing any such sales. The RGS is only 5% off... Steve
WhiteFang Posted December 3, 2008 Posted December 3, 2008 This offer only restrict to US only? Other countries could not enjoy this offer? I can't seem to find the options for shipping to other countries.
Svelte Posted December 3, 2008 Posted December 3, 2008 This offer only restrict to US only? Other countries could not enjoy this offer? I can't seem to find the options for shipping to other countries. Generally, Amazon US has restrictions on shipping anything other than books, CDs and DVDs internationally (the same is true for other Amazon sites). So in effect, yes, other countries can't take advantage of toy discounts on Amazon's website.

Svelte_corps, thanks for answering. I was looking around for answers, and I found that long string of answers in one of the boxes... Sigh, it's very unfortunate that the rest of us could not take advantage of it.

voltio Posted December 3, 2008 Author Posted December 3, 2008 Sorry for getting people's hopes up on this...it appears that Amazon has removed the extra savings that made this deal so hot. . To answer questions about the "bonus" savings, they only appeared at the penultimate ordering screen, right before confirmation, but it appears that those savings are over now. One must be quick to catch these crazy Amazon sales. The Republic Gunship is still available for $90 with free shipping, however, which is not bad.

Agreed, anyway thanks for the update but the RGs is still a good deal!
KinGanon Posted December 3, 2008 Posted December 3, 2008 I got an e-mail form Amazon stating this, I was going to post it after school, but you beat me to it.
madoka Posted December 5, 2008 Posted December 5, 2008 It was a glitch in Amazon's system. What happened was that you were supposed to get 25% off. However, their system gave 25% off, then gave ANOTHER 25% off that amount. So it came close to nearly 50% off, but not quite. The sale was limited to mostly SW, one Indy set and two Speed Racer sets. The glitch only lasted a short period of time. I bought 7 more Gunships, so now I'm up to 10 of the CW variety.
KinGanon Posted December 9, 2008 Posted December 9, 2008 Grrr these sales always appear the very time you don't need em. I had $30 in gift certificates but spent it all christmas shopping the next day I get this email! I could have gotten a V-19 for only $11 out of my pocket!!!
