I did notice that a couple of things I paid FULL price for at the open house were now half price.  And something that was half price in April, full price in May, and is now half price again.  Oh well, such is life.

hmmm, I'll have to check it out... I did notice they started carrying "Aircraft Colors" (Vallejo paints under a US company's name) and I could never find them online.  Finally I found they were filed under the PARENT company's list and the numbers for them were wrong in the catalog I believe...

You know I've never ordered anything from Squadron in a long time ( 8 years? ) for this exact reason. I would receive an "in date" flyer or see an ad in a magazine and call in to order something only to find out it was a different price...usually higher. So this is still going on?

I guess I won't be ordering anything from them...I just don't believe in dealing with a company that doesn't even know what it's going to charge for something...Sure from what I hear they have great customer service and anytime ( in the past I had called ) they were nice enough ( though I didn't always buy some explanations given to me for things ) and they have things that you can't get anywhere else, well I'll just do without....or have the LHS order it from them and let them have the headache.

That's my... My 2 cents [2c]...and here's your change...My 2 cents [2c]

D'OH! I guess they got me with that "Prices Subject to Change at any Time" crap huh? Oh well, at least they ship fast and don't charge way to much for it!

I have always wondered why the monthly flyer has 'sale' prices, but those prices don't show up at the on-line checkout.

I guess that's the advantage that you get when you subscribe to the monthly supplement. I've always been charged the subscription price regardless of the on-line checkout price, but maybe it's because I've taken advantage of the option to include a comment in the order.

If something doesn't show up on the on-line catalogue, then I suggest you try faxing your order, or using snail-mail, or phoning.

Well, I poked around a bit, and now see that they offer their flyer online (lower right corner of their main page), and on the first of each month, I now download the full flyer, and order immediately (note: you must have Adobe Acrobat Reader installed on your computer to read the online flyer).

I was wondering whether anyone can see the online flyer, or whether it's a privilege of the subscribers.
