When is the Citadel DLC going on sale?

Bioware Points haven't been on sale for PC for well over two years, and if this was the only DLC I wanted to get I'd definitely shell out the 15$. However, seeing as I don't have Leviathan, Omega, Citadel, and the appearance packs, I figured I'd wait for a sale, since all those combined cost more than the game itself.
And here I am, waiting...

You get 4GB of awesome content for a very low price.
There is no gaming studio or developer that released 4GB DLC for their game ever.
Discount really isn't needed.
Is that sarcasm, I honestly can't tell 100%.
I'm assuming it is though.
It isn't sarcasm. 15$ is nothing compoared to 4GB of awesome content you'll receive.
Usually if you get 600MB of last DLC from a developer you can feel blessed & lucky.
There hasn't been a gaming studio/developer ever like Bioware to release 4GB DLC.
That is why I love Bioware & can't wait for Dragon Age Inquisition & next generation Mass Effect on Frostbite 3.
This time I'm switching from consoles to glorious PC master race.

Now, don't get me wrong. Mass Effect is easily one of the best series of all time. I've been crazy about ME ever since the first the trailer premiered, but saying that BioWare is the only company like them to do this is a bit ridiculous.

I also don't think any DLC sale will ever happen.
From a business perspective, DLC is a digital good, so it's not Bioware has to get rid of inventory quickly to make space. That's one reason for a sale removed.
The second reason is that when selling to the general public, the loss of revenue from a sale can be made up by increased volume. But a DLC can only be sold to people who already have ME3, and by this point, the majority either have a) given up on ME3 and wouldn't buy Citadel at any price oralready bought Citadel. Among the holdouts, they're basically banking on them finally breaking down and buying Citadel out of curiosity - i.e. sales by attrition.
well, there is a 3rd possiblity. So far I have been the "waiting for a sale" type. I would gladly buy all dlc for half price, that would still be income for BW/EA, what I _refuse_ to do is pay a full game price for an extra few hours of content... I have always been a supporter of Bioware I own nearly all their games. Some of them even more than once, for example I own me2/3 on all platforms even though I dont even have an xbox or ps3, I only play on PC - I bought them as gifts really to other ppl because I felt like they were so awesome that I wanted to share it with others. I own DA origins on origin AND the bundled gold on steam (so that one is a duplicate as well)...
But again, I refure to pay this amount for dlc...
So version number 3 is that I will wait for a little while more for some sort of sale (bw points sale would be nice) and at some point I will just get really pissed off and download the whole thing from some torrent site, and stop buying any bw games in the future because it is just bull****... so instead of half, it is nothing. how's that for business?

No ME 3 DLC for black friday or cyber monday but there is still the chance it will be on sale during the Chrismas or New Years countdown sale.

I'm still waiting for the rest of the DLC to go on sale, but I don't think it will happen until they remove the Bioware Points system.

I appreciate what people are saying about Citadel being value at full price, but i think we're now too far down the road to be paying full price, especially when the full game can be bought for less than a piece of dlc. With my luck, I'd buy it and it will get knocked down to £5 next week. Waited too long to get shafted like that now.

In case anyone is interested, From Ashes for PC is on sale again at Origin for $4. The DLC is part of the "ME3 Digital Deluxe Edition Upgrade".

Would buy that, unfortunately it doesnt come up for me in the uk. Probably us only deal?

Yeah, I have all other ME3 dlc (bought during other sales), yet not touched it as I'm still waiting on Citadel going 1/2 price before doing so. EA/BioWare or whoever decides the price cuts have really strrrrrrrrrrrrrretch this whole thing out. All Skyrim DLC seems to get slashed every other month, yet here we are still waiting.

Yeah it's crazy, I bought Dragonborn during the first sale and then it is on sale again.
The far cry 3 DLC has a good sale so I will probably buy that too on cyber monday.
All these quite big expansions are having good sales and the Citadel DLC is no where to be seen.
