Some nice black Friday deals!...

[sfgiants13 83]

Ah word not allowed. I just bought all of my new PC parts for my move from P3d to msfs so I don’t even have anything setup but it’s the best time of year for addons. My poor credit card.

That has been going on for at least 5 years now and they turned it more into a week of sales instead of just a day.

Yes. It seemed to start last weekend.  Saves all the mad rush I suppose!

I would like a Varjo Aero but even with the $300 off I'm still not going to bite given the usual price is $2000

If it was 50% off I'd buy but my wife would still kill me! 🤣

Huh?, its thursday

forgive me I've not got used to this latest American culture Import, is the Friday in Black Friday a very loosely defined Friday?

 

It's been a thing in the UK since 2010.

Hmm 26€ for the Concorde ... I'll check the forums to see if there are any showstopping bugs on it first, but I'm tempted.

Problem is, at this rate, I will have more aircraft than I can ever fly! 

It's a great problem for us to have.  Some really top-notch pay and freeware aircraft about now and there just isn't enough time to enjoy them all.  .  Not that I'd wish my life away, but its a good time to be a pensioner.

I'm thinking about a Loupedeck as seen here:

I like the rotary controls down each side - they could be very useful in DCS too. Thirty quid off at the moment.

Regarding FS addons, is it me or there are not so many good deals as it used to be?

Oh no Paul!  Don't show me this.  £199 on Amazon - about £30 off as you say.  My credit card is already smouldering.

I’m tempted by the Real Taxiways USA & Europe from JustFlight, to add proper signage to airports as it’s down from £30 to £22, but I’m not sure it it’s recommended by others?

I had it (the USA version) but uninstalled it because you have to manually disable every addon airport in the install folder to prevent elevation and signage issues.

I noticed on Amazon Germany they had Black Friday Sales since Monday or so.

I don't even know what a Black Friday is, lol

I looked at the usual flightsim shops (simmarket, contrail, OrbX, flightsim.to) and today they all have Black Friday Sales. So it's propably a common term now.

As a consumer  I don't care what a sale is called, if I can save a buck or two.

Picked up two cheap planes at OrbX.

But then again Amazon is a US company so they propably just do this sale in every country where they have business.

Yes, I think it is more of a week long thing now.  It also seems to include 'Cyber Monday', which is another recently invented thing. 
I can't complain either as I have done well out of it.  I just added up that I have saved at least £110 - on things I wouldn't normally buy or need unfortunately!  

They still need to catch up with my local Sofa and Carpet shops though - they have sales all year round!

Just ordered mine. It looks to be a useful item, not just for MSFS, but Elite Dangerous, Star Citizen, and Blender too.

Go on, you know you want to. After all, what's £199 but a family shopping trip to Tesco and a tank full of petrol to get there ? You wouldn't balk at that, would you ? Only £199.... 😉

Well...  It's done now.  After watching most of Mark's video (he is making some good MSFS content lately), I decided it was too good to miss.
I better get a second job!   Please everyone, don't show me anything else.  I don't care if the Fenix is a tenner, I'm not buying any more!
