Sale time? Sale schedule?

I know a lot of people have been complaining about the ship modules lately but honestly I don't have a problem with them, in fact, I'd be willing to buy some if they ever went on sale.

Will we see another C-Store sale soon? Is there a schedule of sales?

    Afraid we just had a sale about a month ago and they are typically only a couple of times per year. Think like 2 or 3 20% C-store sales and 2 ship 10% discount sales. So we shouldn't be due for at least another month.

    Oh okay, I bought a few things during that sale. I was just wondering if they were monthly or something.

    There was one in April for First Contact Day, and one for the 4th Of July. Aren't any big holidays coming up any time soon though, unless Cryptic/PWE decides to do something for the end of summer, or decides the Day Of Honor falls somewhere in September.

    Plus occasionally PWE will have specials on buying Zen.

    Lol, if sales were scheduled, people wouldn't buy anything until said scheduled sale.

    True, but it's not really a "sale". That's why I didn't mention it.

    I seem to recall they had sales around Memorial Day, but not sure if they might or not. They did have a sale around Halloween as well.

    Discounting as in not including or Discounting as in reduced price? ;)

    I am surprised that they haven't started a 17-day long Zen Promotion in honor of the Olympics. I'm holding out on getting another card until they do another Zen Promotion. In fact, with the Z-Store prices being so over-the-top, I doubt I'll ever buy any more Zen for STO until they do another bonus Zen promotion.

    They usually have a Memorial Day sale.

    Which is moronic. Of all things the Ship Modules and Keys should go on sale to entice players that normally wouldn't buy them. :rolleyes:

    Well Steam has the Summer sale and the Christmas sale, that's what I mean by scheduling. I plan some money for these.

    I think those are more regularly occurring than scheduled.

    I know DCSU lets you know a couple of days ahead.
