B&N.com: 30% off various sets, EOL'd 7573 Battle of Alamut

Barnes and Noble is currently selling the Prince of Persia large set, 7573 Battle of Alamut, for $55.96 -- 30% below the RRP of $80. This set has been EOL'd for a year, according to the Brickset listing. The aftermarket on Bricklink still has this set for well below RRP, but the B&N price is better than you'll find there.
Stupidly, I bought this set a month ago from an Amazon third-party seller at above RRP, because I hadn't discovered Bricklink yet. It was an enjoyable build; it's basically an Arabian Nights-style castle set. Pretty good value, I think.
B&N currently has a more general 30% off sale that also includes a bunch of PotC sets.

Anyway, I went to a local B&B to use the 20% off + 10% coupon and came upon the following (mostly 2010) sets
7188 - King's Carriage Ambush
8085 - Freeco Speeder
7984 - Deep Sea Raider
7985 - City of Atlantis
8058 - Guardian of the Deep
7326 - Rise of the Sphinx
7325 - Cursed Cobra Statue
2504 - Spinjitzu Dojo
8088 - ARC 170 Starfighter
8089 - Hoth Wampa Cave
8083 - Rebel Trooper Battle Pack
8084 - Snowtrooper Battle Pack
7914 - Mandalorian Battle Pack
All are likely MSRP (well, until they go on clearance)...
Was the oldest sets in quantity that I've really ever run across (but I'm just out of my Dark Ages this year, so a noob)...
Anyone think any of this is worth the time at 10% off? Not necessarily for resale, but when I buy "older" sets I always think "If we don't get to them, I can at least Craigslist them and break even."
I bought the Ghost Train because nothing really caught my eye. Already have 7188, 7984, 8058, 7326, 7325... The kids like Ninjago so considered the Dojo, but...
