Is a sale an indication
« on: January 31, 2013, 21:21:27 »
 As the German web site was updated I was noticing certain sets with the price slashed 59€ 39€ . Do you think that is an indication of a set not moving quickly enough? If so I am not too happy, but not surprised, that the train theme is all slashed. I was dreaming that it would sell and then a second round would follow.
If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:

I think it may mean that, but not necessarily. It could just be a special. I seem to remember one recent theme... western maybe? that was all on sale just after release, before there would have even been time to know if it was selling.

In the end, we will conserve only what we love. We will love only what we understand. We will understand only what we are taught.

I agree with bonniebeth. One of the new Princess / Fairy sets is already reduced in price.

Yeah, unlike here in the US where they almost never have any sales the German site has stuff on sale all the time.

i really hope it isn't indicative of anything other than shifting units. i want the trains to keep coming, i want new stations, i want old sations to get reissued. it would be wonderful to have some of the western sets back out to dovetail with the ew western themes

. it's good for business isn't it? in the sense that it keeps certain retail doors open and active such as hobby and model shops that may have previously stopped carrying playmo.
