Re: LEGO The Simpsons House Now Available - Early Acces for

Strict limit of one "per family or household (address)" here at our Lego store...even if each adult has their own VIP account.

Online is out of both the poly and the posters.

Solid planning by Lego as usual!

Re: [US] Walmart Black Friday Ad

Of course they are because LEGO is selling better each year. 10 years ago LEGO had 1000 piece plastic buckets for $20, then sometimes had gold pieces in them, or "rare" purple (Remember when purple was rare? :lol:) or just 500 random pieces from LEGO cleaning out their warehouses. Man tho...

Re: [US] Walmart Black Friday Ad

Last year it was the blue buckets of 700 legos for $15. Must be inflation. I'll probably still pick up two buckets. My kids love to use these to just build stuff. No last year it was #6749 for $15 which is 650pcs and cardboard also, not a blue bucket. The year before that was the 1600pc XXL box #55...

Re: TRU free Palpatine's Arrest w/ purchase of Star Wars UCS

Gotcha. .. but how do you explain this $50 discount off MSRP? http://www.walmart.com/ip/LEGO-Star-Wars-B-Wing-Starfighter/22663996" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; That set was not on the "no discount" list. http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=85881...

Re: No Discounts Policy on LEGO Exclusives & Hard to Find It

Interesting thoughts C&T, I have had some that are in the same school of thought. To add on to your reasoning... Think of TRU.. they mark up prices, why? Because their main target audience is the 'average buyer' who just wants to pick up a quick toy for their child/gift/etc., not the collectors...

I think TLG should do what they can or want to curb the reseller issue or Fraud or what ever reason the TLG has but IMO it's really nothing to do with the items they claim are LEGO Exclusives and Hard to Find Items Like I said in one of my posts...buy a black marker and write "SOLD" in pe...

Re: No Discounts Policy on LEGO Exclusives & Hard to Find It

Sounds like Lego is taking a page from the ToysRUs book of how to run a business. Are they going to force amazon to track sales too, and report if someone dares buy two of the same thing! Or cut amazon off if they sell an item for 99.98 instead if 99.99. I was told there was a system of warnings an...

Re: No Discounts Policy on LEGO Exclusives & Hard to Find It

I hate this policy. I couldn't afford to buy the exclusives without discount. not to mention Lego is raising prices on new exclusive products too. all they care is how to maximize their profit. can we collect votes and submit to Lego, requesting them to remove this new policy? hope if we have enoug...

Re: No Discounts Policy on LEGO Exclusives & Hard to Find It

With this new policy, is there really a need for these other retailers to carry these sets considering they won't be discounted anymore? After all, you do get VIP points and occasionally special free gifts from LEGO Stores and Shop at Home, which of course provides a better incentive for buying fro...

Not only that, but Lego then limits what people can buy from them essentially forcing people towards these jokers like TRU.

Re: [USA] Target Clearance Finds Summer 2013

They all look to be NCF, so this is likely a clearance even though Target is calling this a price cut. I can't see them being around until 9/21. This is exactly what happened with The Zombies. They went to $40 on a price cut and they were essentially gone for good.

Shocker.

It is still available at S@H, but limit is 2 so you'll have to add $5 to get the free shipping.

FYI...I was only able to do this twice for any single set. (2 sets of 3 for a total of 6) Trying to buy three more of the same set for a 3rd time, the discount was not reflected.
