Windsteed - 50% off this week

If you're at all tempted by the Swift Windsteed, it's currently 50% off at the Blizzard Store, this week only.

It's actually the favourite mount of my hunter at the moment. It goes with his purple set, looks absolutely gorgeous in the air, has a fun mount special, but most importantly it hovers in one place, rather than flaps up and down :D

and of course, this had to happen only a few weeks after I bought them for all of my accounts.

A bit of palindromic wisdom:
"Step on no pets!"
Casual player.. don't raid, don't PvP. Suffer from extreme altitis
I love pets - combat or non.

it has what seems to me to be an unusual characteristic: when you pass through the Dark Portal, to go to Outland, if you are flying, when you appear on the other side, you are still flying.

When I go through the portal while flying on any of my other flying mounts, I appear in "ground mount" mode on the other side.

Ahhh super tempted! Even though the face is a bit strange I really love the idea of them and I liked their animations on the PTR.

Ehh.. I suppose this is as cheap as it's going to get.
Might as well.

Siggy under construction!

Aww damn, just after I moved and don't have a wow-capable net in my new place yet :<

If I buy it and get it in a mail, and won't open the mail in 30 days - what will happen?
Or can I open the mail by armory AH on web page?

EDIT: Nevermind, bought it :3
I was to visit my old place tomorrow anyway, to pick up a few final trinkets, so I may as well take my lappy and log in that one final ol-place-time ;)
So happy, I've been eyeing it for my huntress since it first showed up :D
