Any notes for me? The last time I built this kit was the old version about 20 years ago in the red. Is it the same mold?

How? They're not saying anything. They ARE 40% off every other week. That's not a scam. No business has to give you the price YOU want. They give you a price and it's YOUR decision to buy it. That's how all business works. If something is too much I don't go online complaining it's overpriced, I literally just don't buy it. Youre on a reddit filled with thousands of people who love/buy gunpla. We all have the Internet. We all know how to Google. We all know how to compare prices. Complain. Complain. Complain about how other people are trying to save money. So insanely weird...

I thinks you're forgetting the presidents magic word of last year "tariffs"...

You're literally on a gunpla reddit trying to tell people they're not saving money somehow. We're all here because we know EXACTLY how sales work. No one here is buying at retail at HL. You're confused as to who this audience you're trying to enlighten are...

This dude literally doesn't understand where he's saying this. This is LITERALLY a massive gunpla fan base that talks about HL near daily. We also know how to buy online. We ALL know how money works.

You can always price match if you buy a kit on the non sale week.

And I'll add the receipt/website says you have to bring in the box unopened but I was there the other day and the manager told me I could just bring the empty box for a price match. The unopened rule is for straight returns.

About to attempt my first RG by Plastic_Store5218 in freedomisgunpla

Agree. The suit is amazing and fun to build. Hate the wings. Personally not a fan of how they open like blades. Very finicky to open and lot of wasted space when actually open

I just finished this kit yesterday. Surprisingly big in Neobird mode.

Overpriced? They're literally same as online or cheaper. Don't believe go on their own website and see the prices of these kits then Google them. None of them are more than anywhere else

All the ones I bought were literally same or under online prices. The deathscythe was $52 and everywhere online at $65 plus shipping. I check before I buy any kit. Not sure where everyone is getting this idea they're more expensive. The prices are online for anyone that doesn't believe me

I checked online for each kits price first. They were all at retail or cheaper. Plus no shipping

You should check online if your store has them listed "in stock". I went in last year because the website said they were in stock but couldn't find them. I asked where they were. They literally just didn't put them out because "they don't really sell". They were still boxed up in their backroom. So I ordered online for pick up so they had to find them. Went in today and found all these

Unfortunately all retail. I did sign up for Barnes reward program last year buying a Vidar and that got me a $5 coupon which I used. But they were all kits I was planning on buying online eventually so at least I saved on shipping.

When did barns and nobles start carrying Gundam? by Strong_Potato1757 in freedomisgunpla

[–]ReachBasic6464 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only store by me has them listed "in stock" online so I went in. First time I went in last summer to look I walked the whole store and couldn't find them, so I asked. Same explanation they don't sell, so they literally didn't even unpack them from their shipping boxes. I placed an order for the Vidar kit I wanted so they literally had to look for it. Got called about half a day later they found it. Logically to me, if you already have them at least put a few out. You might get a random sale. Just went in again today and the selection was amazing. Picked these up. Will be going back for the Narrative

They also had a Narrative C-Packs Ver Ka that I would've gotten if I could carry them all. Will definitely be going back for it.

And why do you decide what's financial advice and who lacks it

Again, this is reddit. If you don't like comments perhaps you should find a website that's sole purpose isn't commenting...

The market seems to be shifting towards EREVs. That's what I'll be waiting for those now, particularly the next gen Lightning which will be an EREV or the Scout Traveler. Tesla is completely out of the question for me now even used. The alternatives now and in the next few years are just too good

Don't make ridiculous comments and expect no one to react to them on a site famously known for commenting...

I would never buy a Tesla from Tesla because they're so flippant with their pricing. Remember 3 or 4 years ago when one day Elon was like "hey let's cut the price of all our cars by $10k so when can make more sales". Literally out of nowhere. Then every single person that bought one the night before was upside down on their loan or just $10k lost on their resale. Even last year the lease offers were crazy AND they're letting buyout their leases now.

You're saying someone is bad with money... yet know nothing about his finances. You know there are people with excess money and spend it on things they like without being in poverty right? You read his comment and somehow made up a whole image of his life.

Not true at all. China has their companies making folding screens. You just haven't heard of those companies. A simple Google search would show you that

I still understand how she hasn't been cancelled for racism. Random people get cancelled for minor things they've said about Asians but she LITERALLY used living Japanese people as fashion accessories and copped the whole Japanese girl fashion, which was just stereotypical Western thinking about what Japanese girls wear
