no, you should wait for a 50 or 75% discount, got 4300 plat with the price of 1000 pretty great difference with a 75% or 4300 with the price of 2100 with a 50% discount, think about it, depends on how long you plan to play warframe and what do you want to buy with plat, I recommend you not to buy weapons with plat and instead build them and buy a weapon slot and a catalyst only 40 plat for both and a good weapon is sold at a much higher price... also, don't buy materials (you can get them with a little bot of hard work, look for them) and don't rush building, met a lot of players who were founders and wasted all their plat in rushing builds and materials, they didn't buy slots and they're selling the weapons they rushed now... I recommend you to buy only warframe/weapons slots, catalysts for your favorites, colors if you like (if you're going to buy colors and you like a lot of them check the bundles, maybe all the ones you want are in the same package) or both color packages and you can get all the colors, helmets if you see the alert is pretty rare and you want it, and don't buy warframes (except if it's vauban, that's alert only or excal with the most uncommon bp drops from ambulas), ohh and modules packages are useless in my opinion, since you get the ones that you already have pretty often.

In my opinion the best is to keep some plat saved up, I bought 4300 for 50 dollars, got the three rare mods of that time (retribution, thunderbolt and handspring) although they're just a little plus, now they're shred, vigor and lethal torrent.

Sorry for the long comment and hope you read it all through and it helps you.
