I’m sick and tired of marketing spin.
“For 21 Days starting on April 17th, save up to 81% on more than 700 items.”
(quoted from this page).
My (MSFS2024 1.4.14.0) market place had 696 items discounted and I couldn’t find a single 81% discounted item (I did find 1(one) item at 80%). I estimate that less than 2% of the items had a discount rate greater than 50%, the vast majority were between 20% and 30%. There was even a few less than 10% (what’s the point?).
Oh and on a side note, I couldn’t find a single discounted item that wasn’t marked MSFS2020.

No surprise.
Been that way since humans began trading…

Typically during the last couple years for all those sales, the SWS Zenith bush plane ends up going on sale for $2 and some cents. That legitimately is like an 81% sale on that plane, but in all these sales, that is the only product that has that high of a percentage off. It is always just that one plane every single time. It might not have shown up for you because you may already own it. Or if it is not for sale in the Marketplace for 2024 yet, they may have just used prior marketing text.
I am not saying anything against the plane. Its a good product. But yes, the chances are most everyone has already picked it up in a prior sale.
