Figure out how many different ones you can buy that you don't have. Then add up the actual cost without the discount of those packs. Save the amount. Let's call it C1. Then find the cheapest ones that you would duplicate and add up those and save the amount as C2. Add C1 and C2 and then subtract the discount amount. Call that amount C3. Now compare C1 to C3. Is there a big enough difference to be worth it? If so go for it. Otherwise chalk it up to TGC's way of trying to sell more and make money. At least you can get any model packs. There was a deal that I remember where you had to buy certain model packs. There were too many I already had. If only then I could have had the pick of any model pack.

Now, I'm not responsible for doing the arithmetic wrong as it is late and I'm tired.

And as Cyborg Art said, you're at least supporting poor artists.

I welcome any criticism you have that doesn't effect me. I used to think I was indecisive, but now I'm not so sure.

Whoa I get the feeling i came off as complaining. Not the case I was merely poking fun at myself because of how much of a fpsc freak I have become.

No, not to me. My post was totally tongue in cheek. Notice the smilies.

I, too, have just about every model pack there is. I'm totally obsessed with FPSC. However, I've willed everything to my Grandson.

Dark basic,

When you put an order in your basket at the bottom it has the deal.

A few days before my new computer was to arrive I spent more than a few hours transfering all the FPSC stuff I have collected over the last year onto a 1tb ext. I promised myself that I was going to organize it all so I could find everything easier. My plan is to keep eveything I can on the ext and as a double back up keeping it on my old computer. I didn't realize how much stuff I had collected(thank you Blue and Black Fox and of course all those affiliated with NorthernFoxmedia)Then it really hit home when the computer arrived and I spent almost the same amount of time reinstalling everything.

Is not this the usual reduction you receive when you buy six packages/products at the same time, which is in place for at least a year now ?

I just saw that Bond1's oldest packs are 70% off. Unfortunately for me I had already purchased all of them including the newer ones!!

There are five of them through MP38 in case anybody would like to know. These are the one's that are for sale.

hmmm
That sounds like it could be a bit risky.
Some kids would "kill" for all the model packs.
Beware of the coffee he fixes for you from now on.

External hard drives are the only way to fly.
I have everything on one now, but only because I burned up the processors in my quadcore.
So, I turned its hard drive into an external to retrieve everything. (now its a backup for my laptop)

Hey CE, good to see you are perusing the FPSC threads. Long time no hear. What do they call it when one is just looking and not posting, other than perusing?
