    Well, that sale lasted one day only. You could consider Friday a separate sale that just happens to repeat items.

    But I wouldn't worry-half the things businesses say on BF are hyperbole. "Prices will never be this low again! Hurry! If your invalid elderly live with you and are slowing you down, drown them in the bathtub but DO NOT MISS THIS ONE-TIME EVENT!!!"

    And two weeks later, FT Crox is $60 again.

    So far, the sales have just been merchandise that's already been discounted multiple times.

    Truly, the meaning of Black Friday has been lost.

    TF-Source BF page updated again. Yesterday's sales are gone and a bunch of Fans Project stuff has replaced it. A lot of the stuff doesn't have a list price vs discount price, so I'm not sure how good some of the deals are.

    Yep, but good luck finding the two that they are missing without having to buy a complete set. That's what holding me back for grabbing them.

    If any of those Fansproject prices were MSRP, I'd likely own all of them already. I may take the plunge on a couple of Glacialbots, but I lost interest in Dinoking a long time ago.

    Honestly even for just the three, $38 shipped is worth it.

    Dinoking is at best a 150 dollar set.

    Never thought I would see a day when FP products would go on sale like Hasbro's. "We can't get rid of this crap".

    Well it was listed earlier this morning at around $250, but they've since bumped the price back up to $300. Must have been a mistake?

    Probably so. If you buy each one individually the price comes to $260.

    Looks like FT Hound would be discounted. Looks like FT products are beginning to sell less well.

    Selling less well != going out of business. Hysterics much?
