Re: Toys R Us (USA) Buy 1 Get 1 50% Off 11/25-12/1

Starting at 6pm (eastern time?) there will be $25 off $150+ purchases if you use your MasterCard. Enter promo code MC25. Dunno if it stacks. Even if it were to stack, there doesn't appear to be a way to maximize savings when hitting $150. I.e. you get 1 discount per order and none of the (good/non ...

Same sale going on at FAO.com, use code 955904 for $20 off $100 to eliminate the markups in many cases.

Re: Target $10 Gift Card w/purchase of any set $39.99 or mor

So these sets are very clearly NOT excluded in the ad, but they don't have the shelf tags so they don't qualify? Is this a new policy at Target that the shelf tags trump the weekly ad? This is almost as laughable as the Toys R Us big toy book coupons. I don't think this is the case, their system is...

Re: [USA] Wal-Mart 60% off LEGO City The Mine Set

I have a lot of extra BURP pieces laying around from previous eBay mixed brick lots that I have bought...those could go a long way in making a nicer hillside with longer tunnels for the mine.

I like the light-rail train in the set, looks cool..

Re: Walmart.com SW Death Star & Super Star Destroyer $42-$64

If you ordered something yesterday and it has dropped today, then go into your orders and request a price adjustment. According to their policies if the item's price drops within 7 days of ordering they will adjust to the new price.

Re: [USA] Toys R Us Buy 2 Get 3rd Free 9/16-9/22

Apparently ToysRUs thinks that free shipping means crap shipping. Just got my order of three Y-Wings. Smashed, all 3 of them. Soon as I saw the box, I knew it was bad: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/833/dsc04340k.jpg http://imageshack.us/a/img405/2186/dsc04347xq.jpg Sigh, off to their custome...

Re: [USA] Toys R Us Buy 2 Get 3rd Free 9/16-9/22

Well, I just got my first set of orders delivered today and so far it's been a horror story. I ordered about 20 items that were delivered today, and 70% of the items arrived with box damage, 3 or 4 sets look like someone of considerable weight sat on them. Packing job was horrible and pathetic. To t...

Re: Tantive IV Sold Out & Fire Brigade Backordered

I've had several orders delayed in the past with Target.com (4 in the past year), never received the items. The most painful one was some sets that were delayed 5 different times until I finally cancelled them...at one point they were delayed even when the item came back in stock....maddening!

Re: Where to get boxes for shipping large sets?

I've used Uline in the past, they are good and reliable (I live near one of their distribution centers so I can pick up locally).

I would also suggest checking out eBay/Amazon, as there are several sellers on both sites who sell bulk shipping supplies that cater to the eBay/small business seller.

Re: [USA] ToysRUs Cyber Online LEGO Sale - February 6 Only

Their prices have become so high for Lego that it's not really worth shopping there anymore, even with the BOGO50 (which brings most things back down to normal MSRP). Target and Amazon are getting the bulk of my purchases for the near future until the TRU price structuring returns to semi-normal lev...

Thanks for the insight Brownstone.

Re: Amazon.it Emerald Night for $100

Both of my orders were cancelled (IF and EN), I translated the email and it said I ordered more than "should normally be consumed" or some such, so rather than adjust quantities they just cancelled the orders (ordered 3 of each)
