Time to finally get that 12 CD sub from 209-220 (the only sub-sized main range gap I have) and get The Five Companions (the only bonus release I don't have) as the free gift.
By the time I add on a couple of bundles and a few pre-orders, I'm going to be in big trouble when the fiancée finds out!
I'm joking. She'll not mind. She knows I've had a relationship with BF for much longer than with her.

FYI for you International Fans the Early MR Bundle prices with these titles have been reduced as well, so Bundle purchases might save you further of shipping. Regards mark687 And for UK buyers too with no shipping on bundles, good idea depending on which titles you want. The bundles are a bit random, they all start at 51 but only the Fifth Doctor bundle includes all his 51-100 titles (12). The others miss out the last title in the 51-100 run for the Sixth and Seventh Doctors and the last four titles for the Eighth Doctor. Then the next bundle goes well past the 100th release and so beyond the £6 CD / £2.99 download range.

I shouldn't like to speculate on which will sell out first - we don't know stock levels from when they stopped repressing. However Council Of Nicea and Live 34 are 2 of my favourite BFs ever. They're both standalone though do feature Erimem and Hex they're not "event" stories in their respective arcs.

I'll take my time. Prepare the first version of my list. Try to curtail it and make it version 2.0. Then add something else and it becomes version 3.0 Shopping is an iterative process, you see.Iterations of buy...

I think we should all naturally assume this means BF have commissioned 50 new Doctor Who stories to replace the space in the Warehouse

It was especially fun to pun because rran had just posted about her first listen to that Fifth Doctor set.

Anyone remember how quickly the first of the 1-50 sold out? Roughly 18 Months though the rate was unpredictable some weeks titles were selling out Daily.

Dang it, I get paid on Wednesday, couln't they have waited a bit? I was planning on pre-ordering a couple of boxsets then as well, but I honestly can't afford to right now, 10% off or not. *sigh* Ah well... maybe I can do one boxset and get a few pound off, I guess...

It might be quicker this time with the increase in listeners since the 50th (I didn't start listening to BF until 2014, and when I decided to start collecting the CD's almost all of the first 50 were out of print anyway)

Yes, indeed. I paid about £5-6 each for many titles in this range bought second-hand to keep within budget, and thought that was great value. For new CDs with the download as a bonus it's practically giving them away. And for download customers - well, at £2.99 Christmas has come early!

I don't think I've ever really paid full price for a story, pre-orders or sales for me everytime, I couldn't afford/justify the expense on BF otherwise.

I don't read DU for a day and all hell breaks loose! Very tempting to go bananas but I'm going to be restrained and just buy 4 CD's: 54 - The Natural History of Fear 72 - Terror Firma 73 - Thicker than Water 89 - No Man's Land

Hmm, I think they’ve made a mistake by including pre-orders at 10% off, particularly when they don’t have the usual business practice of a pre-order price guarantee put in place.
That aside, it’s a terrific offer; I hope you guys get some real bargains.
