Do you Regret Avoiding a Product just by Waiting for a Deal?

For example-
I wanted to buy Crystal Beast (their was about 20) but was never on sale/clearance, I waited for months and eventually it sold out despite having no price drop.

And whenever I buy a set on full-price, a deal break out a week after…

Sometimes it ends up bad, but most of the time I try to buy it early as I can so I can brag about it. :stuck_out_tongue:

Yeah, I’ve done that numerous times with system lines like Ninjago and Chima. I either never find it on sale, or by the time I do it’s irrelevant in story.

For some reason, no LEGO sets are ever on sale where I am. So I always pay full price. :frowning:

So, I have recently (sort of) bought two OG constraction Gorzan sets, a Tunneler Beast and a Queen Beast at full price as I could not let those opportunities slip by me. This policy tends to differ for digital products, namely Steam games, as after purchasing Legendary Edition Skyrim for the full $50 US about a week before a Summer sale I now only purchase games that are on sale…

Every year, during the Steam sale, I always wait to see if the price of games I want will go lower, since that happens sometimes.
It never does, and I end up missing the half-price deal waiting for a 60% off deal.

Steam refiunds exist now

You could have just played it a little, said you didn’t like it, get the money, then spend it on the sale and Skyrim :stuck_out_tongue:

This was last year, before those existed…

I waited two years for this SINGLE Rotor to go on sale at a local Toys R’ Us, then [insert name of kid here] took it away from my grasp! :triumph:

I know, Rotor is quite a nice parts pack.

I wanted to buy him, but I waited too long, so I ended up getting a bootleg version of him, which was actually not that bad.

That bootleg was the last chance i got at buying him. :confounded:

Besides, it’s Hero Star Soldier, one of the better bootlegs i’ve heard.

I waited for a month or two for Convoy to go on sale on Steam.

I regret not buying it earlier because it is well worth the fifteen dollars.
