Platea : Epic Bundle - No Bargain for MM Sale?

Curious... The Platea Bundle actually costs MORE than the three individual components when calculating the March Madness price!

Here is what I did:
1) place the bundle in the cart and added Flirty Dress to get a second item for the MM full discount. TOTAL = $37.30

2) clear the cart and place the 3 individual bundle parts plus the Flirty Dress. TOTAL = $31.87

I realize that this is probably because the MM discount is calculated from the FULL price rather than the discounted one, but it is something to watch out for on Bundles during this promotion. Caveat Emptor!

    Glad I noticed this thread before checking out. He's absolutely right. I save 5.42 by buying them as separate items. The bundle with 3 other items is 58.42. With the Platea items added individually 53.00. I double checked my results before submitting this post.

    For the bundle no as it is considered a single item but if you put the separate parts in your cart, the subtotal is $40.51 and comes down to $28.94. If you have A5 or GH, you get another 10% off that price.

    Hey, while we've got your attention, Jack... can Platea be turned inside out? What I mean is, can the straight pieces be arranged so that they are windows and doors facing out rather than in? Or are they joined at the corner?

    A module set with smaller pieces in the same style would be a wonderful companion product, btw. :)

    Not entirely sure I understand the question, but all the walls and doors can be rotated, so I think you'll be ok :)

    No problem, Jack, I would have bought it at either price, but saving a few more bucks is great!

    I'm gutted that I'm missing this... went to ASDA and card was declined... phoned Bank, who told me my card number on a list of cloned cards, so it was cancelled as a precaution (shame they didn't tell me first!)... so it'll be end of the week before I can buy anything - poor me, poor me :(
