CaptainSim 3 day sale, be careful.

Recommended Posts

CaptainSim just posted on their Facebook a picture of the 767 with a banner showing up to 50% sale on all P3D items. The catch is not all items are 50% off. Some are 5, 10, etc. Your lucky if an old addon even comes out to 50%. The 767 is down to $94.76, LOL  It’s one of those read the small print sales.

Oh yes, its the ol' "upto x % off" trick just to get you interested but then what you rellaly need is only a small discount.

Its an old marketing ploy!

Most are like $5 off except the ones that were really high. The 767 dropped from $135(!) to $95.

I don't think the 767 ever got to $135 (yet) .... It was $99 while in 'beta' and it remained so when it reached v1.0.

I am planning on getting the PMDG 777 once it is updated for v5. The fact that CS 767 is even close to the price of the 777 is a mystery to me.

Cheers, Pete

It’s $134.99 regular price on the website now. Maybe they raised it so they could put it on sale for $94?

Yeah, a $95 sale price isn't anywhere even close to enticing me to the checkout page with a 767 in my basket.

Not buying anything from Captain Sim again, since they never delivered on the free v4 updates...

B727 updates were also a disaster for FSX. I have never bought from them again.. even one of their famous buy for $10 sales I let pass by. My allegiance is elsewhere.
