    Posted it just because I didn't see it anywhere in the forums & just another method to let people be informed.

    It's too bad that PST won't arrive for a little over a month (we're currently still in PDT). ;)

    Ok....

    There isn't an R&D Ship Promotion! going on. These are just normal boxes (no chance of getting a ship). This might be attractive if there was new projects added to the R&D system or if there was a Ship Promotion!, but otherwise I don't see a point in buying these.

    Just a sale price... no other promos so I don't see any reason to buy unless you absolutely need R&D mats to do right this instant...

    Wow! Now that's a sale I can't not live without! ;)

    I can barely resist. By Grabthar's Hammer, what a savings.

    It would be really nice if there were flash sales during OTHER time frames...other than 10am-6pm PST...A lot of people at work during that time that miss these sales...

    A moot point when the sale is on one of if not the most worthless item in the store.

    Straw poll time... who actually buys R&D boxes when there isn't the chance for a rare ship?

    The only good thing I can imagine with this sale....it probably means a promo pack sale at 20% off is around the corner.

    They did this a few weeks ago with ship packs....30% off all ship packs (no T5U upgrade tokens), then 20% off all ships (not just packs) (including the new carriers) (get T5U tokens) a short time later.

    Seems like a new maneuver -----
    higher discount % first,
    better overall discount value later.

    Which, until November 5th, is 11am-7pm PDT. :)

    It's really annoying that people that work all day can't take advantage of these kinds of sales. What could possibly be the reason for this timeframe?

    With the new fangled programming they can set the on/off to pre-selected times.
