I think I managed to do OK this last year with the club and its benefits.
Seeing as it was the carry on from all the years I paid up front when it was 2 yearly, this last year only cost me less than half.
All in all I ordered 87 models, 2 being shipped in feb next year, but I benefited from the saving this year.
Adding together the savings per individual model from being a club member, and the huge discounts I got by buying at the 2 huge sales they had, (only available to members) and the loyalty rewards I collected on that lot, I made a saving of $2895, PLUS at least another $1000 at least on free shipping on 87 models to the UK.
The biggest discounts were the DP's, and the club tankers, as I sold at least 22 of those.
Of course, no sales next year, as they have no inventory left.
