The initial buy in to the game will be a little more expensive this way, but it will actually save you a lot of money.
Here is what you will get for about US$50:
All needed counters and rulers
Rule Book (in the language of the country you bought it in. Download the English rules here).
1x Double A Damage Deck
1x B Damage Deck
1x Red Baron Fokker DR.I miniature with Maneuver deck D
1x Barker Sopwith Camel miniature with Maneuver deck C
1x Francesco Baracca SPAD XIII miniature with Maneuver deck A
1x Ernst Udet Albatros D.Va miniature with Maneuver deck B
To get these same components with out buy the Deluxe Set, you would need to pick up (only needed components listed) :
Famous Aces US$28
All needed counters and rulers
Rule Book
1x A damage Deck
1x A Maneuver Deck
1x B Maneuver Deck
1x C Maneuver Deck
1x D Maneuver Deck
Watch Your Back US$28
1x B damage Deck
Fokker DR.I miniature US$12
Sopwith Camel miniature US$12
SPAD XIII US$12

Total cost this way, US$104
