Re: Series 10 Now Starting to Appear at Target, ToysRUs, Wal

I felt through 9 sealed cases and it was 2-3 Medusa's each time.

Re: Is Target the New TRU of Lego Pricing?

The Target stores in my area have been marking up LEGO quite a bit lately. At first it was very selective but now it's spreading to more sets.

Re: Mr.Gold LEGO Minifigure Picture (71001 Series 10)

I'm from Seattle and I bought 1 case and felt through 8 others and with no luck although I was kind of lucky blindly stumbling across them while grocery shopping with my wife. We were feeling for the top hat and the bar.

[USA] Fred Meyer CMF series 10

Ballard location has roughly 8 cases out. I'm guessing the other locations have theirs out as well and if not today then very shortly. Had a crack at all of them first, they were sealed, and no Mr. Gold :crazy:

Re: CMF Series 10 listed at TRU

I just searched 9 (6 were still sealed and the rest were practically untouched) cases at Fred Meyer (Ballard) and came up empty handed. I know the odds are against us but still a bummer!

Wow. In stock for more than an hour, and with a limit of 5. What gives? (could this be the result of LS@H cracking down on ebay flippers? "cracking down" = the letters saying 'your buying privileges have been suspended' that some bricklinkers have been discussing.) That or they finally fi...

Re: MINECRAFT in stock at Jinx!

I did eventually get the shipping confirmation email but I remember pestering them at first because it took so long. It took a long time for them to reply to help inquires as well. They really should change that one day to process and ship statement, it makes them look silly. I'd say 3-7 is more rea...

Re: MINECRAFT in stock at Jinx!

Any idea if they give you notification once it's been shipped. They state they ship within 1 business day after purchase but I haven't received any confirmation about it. They do state that but in my experience it's considerably longer. I waited well over a week for them to ship a Minecraft set las...

Re: S@H post-Xmas 20% off sale

Why is it that year after year they pad their list of whats on sale with items that are sold out? Sure there is a chance your local LEGO store might have it but is it worth all the effort to you guys for 20%? Also I seem to remember that a few years ago we they usually had a few sets at 50% off - ev...
