I just discovered this afternoon that Shapeways is giving a 5 to 10% discount on WSF right now. Unfortunately, I found out after I had made a $200.00 order that was mixed WSF, Black acrylic, and Frosted detail (subs). When I started to refill my cart after the order I noticed a delayed shipping discount offer in the cart. I had about $100.00 of WSF models in the cart and the discount was about 4.7%. But when I added a Frosted Detail model (subs again) the discount offer in the cart disappeared. When I removed the FD from the cart the discount reappeared. Then I tried adding a Black acrylic model and the discount disappeared again. So then I started adding more WSF models to the cart and at $200.00 the discount had increased to 9.7%. I kept going and the discount disappeared again when the total got over $250.00.
So long story short, it you order only WSF you can get a discount of approximately 5 to 10% up to an order of $250.00 by selecting the "slow delivery" option in the cart.
There is no information about it on the Shapeway's site so I don't know when they will stop the offer. They have done this before. They only way to find out is put a WSF model in the cart and check the cart.

Do shapeways normally do something over Easter? A flash sale or free shipping or something.
Got an order ready with deck stuff etc. and would hang on for then if so.
I've been delaying the order for any new minis popping up (Any Imminent?) and the deck is going to be here before that anyway, so a bit longer won't matter.

Historically they do something over the summer. Usually just free shipping or a 5% I can’t speak for all the other designers on Shapeways, but summer is my slowest selling time of the year. If same holds true for the other designers, there is a reason for a summer sale
