    Morning

    I haven't seen any posts yet for the upcoming Black Friday.
    Let's start a post and if you see a supplier with a sale, lets post it below:

    Really just hoping we get some good eBay sales to be honest.

    Edit:
    Although I am looking to get some newer guys, a lot of stuff I really want isn't in stock on many retailers since I was out of the game for a while, so that's why.

    Thinking about it, I hope the Fans Hobby trailers go on sale as I still need Scourge's trailer at the very least.

    Do we ever get Black Friday sale information this early? I wouldn't have thought to even consider it until about a week beforehand, about a month from now, for early advertisements.

    I'm cool with that, though. Lots of times something comes out at $100+ and I'll have zero interest, but drop it below $60 and suddenly I start thinking I wouldn't mind having one.

    I think things are shifting in this space quickly, so retailers should be keen to turnover older inventories

    Isn't it a little early for that kind of announcement? How far in advance do the stores have to plan this out?

    I don't know about little guys like the stores we usually buy our figures from, but I can tell you from working in retail that Black Friday ads are set months in advance and printed by September for big box stores.

    But rarely announced more than a week or two in advance so as not to deter sales and business in the meantime.

    This is true. But there are always leaks. My point being that no, we probably don't know what sort of Black Friday deals we might get yet, but with just a little more than a month to go (less if we're including 11-11 sales) it's not unreasonable to start the discussion.

    Hoping that Devil Stinger will be a deal somewhere, since I can't justify his full price.

    I am purely speculating here, we will have an October Ebay sale. November 11th will probably have a sale (maybe Amazon and Ebay, maybe not). Black Friday may have Amazon and Ebay sales, but it will probably be for cyber Monday. December may have two Ebay sales before Christmas. Smaller online sellers like bbts, tfsource, etc. will probably offer deep discounts on stock they want to clear out.

    It's pure speculation at this point, and that's okay! I second the idea that FH trailers are likely to get discounts this year. Chosen Prime had good deals on FH last year, and I'm guessing the trailers didn't sell like full figures would have.
