Eagle Strike/Aeromaster COUPONS???
Posted by echolmberg on Wednesday, May 11, 2011 10:50 AM

Hi guys!

Yesterday I received in the mail my five sheets of aftermaket decals which I ordered from Squadron.  I have a couple of them with me here at work simply because I like to drool over them.  Anyway, I noticed for the first time that there's a little 1" x 1" graphic on each side of the instruction sheet(s) that says "Coupon Eagle Strike Productions" with the "cutting scissors" graphic on the dashed lines surrounding the coupon.  My question is this:  Coupon for what?  What are these coupons worth or are they even worth anything?  Is it more of the "proof of purchase" thing?  I tried finding some info on the web but have turned up nothing.

Does anyone know what these "coupons" are good for?

Thanks!

Eric

This could possibly be from the original mfr, Squadron never bothered to change the graphics file after acquiring the line.

Gerald, Is that why Squadron has those huge Aeromaster sales all the time?  Are they liquidating purchased stock from the original maker?   Rick.

I definitely took advantage of that last sale and the one before that, too!  You just can't beat 80% off!  Well...I supposed you could with 90 or 100% off but I digress.  I was just hoping that those coupons might actually be worth something like if you send in 10 you get a free decal sheet or something like that.  Sadly, I guess not.  Crying

If they did Bother to change the graphics you would not be getting them on sale no would you and you would be complaining about the the price. I guess if it was Sprue brothers you would not be putting a negative spin on it.

Even if they DID change the file, this wouldn't affect decals that had already been printed, only ones that are newly printed.  How do you know that they never "bothered" to change the files?
