ORBx 50% sale....really

Featured Replies

ORBx is having a 50% sale and yet

I have not found one item yet at 50% off.

oh wait "Up to 50%"

20 to 30% is not even close to 50%.

Type of thing that really arks me.

makes me want to boycott.

Think I will...

    If Avsim was a person, it would be someone with a massive mood disorder and in need of very strong medication.

  • I think ORBX needs to go back the school. 50% off 35.44 does not equal 20.38   Edit: I figured it out, product pages display the price after taxes.

  • Some of the scenery I want to add to my collection is not on the 50% list. I guess I'll wait for the next one.

What a dumb reason to boycott over. because there are things that are 50% off.

I generally do not buy ORBX scenery anymore, very slim pickings. But I did take a look at their offerings and noticed they are still selling Buttonville -- which has been closed for going on a year now and will soon be an industrial park.

 

Are the discrepancies due to currency conversion?

Despite it saying at the bottom that will be calculated at checkout.

Orbx sell Meigs, which has been closed for 21 years.
It's flight simulation, not flight replication.

That's a valid point.

I would never fly to a closed or non-existent airport, but that is on me.

I like to see Meigs in the sim as it was when I last visted Chicago - a park and the only evidence of it once being an airport is the old control tower.

Meigs is part of the base Sim since the 40th anniversary update anyways

You want to boycott hem for offering mostly a 30% discount?  Yeah, that makes sense

I purchased Terrainy Studios LGSM Samos and ORBx LIEO Olbia Costa Smeralda v2 last night, and I may well pick up a handful more over the coming week.

But.. But... KAI TAK!! 

😭

 

EDIT: I set myself a challenge:

browsing the very complicated orbx site to find an addon that's both

1) 50% off

AND

2) NOT word not allowed.

This might take a LOOONG time....
