It seems like the same as retail stores. Based on what I bought it was $28 and that's in line with retail stores I buy from.

They actually just called me back, let me order as many as I needed, and were very pleasant. What's really funny is they were 'shocked' by how people were responding to the offer... REALLY??

I guess S@H wont be doing any more deals like this since it seems to have cause so many problems and unhappy customers. No that's just silly thinking. They know people get screwed all the time either in cancelled items, CC issues, or pricing adjustments; and while they may make tweaks to the system...

Well it should be interesting to see what happens. All you can do is leave a message... I'm sure some locals down there will clean them out before calls are returned.

For those that don't know. Be careful when you're dealing with their phone customer service. When the mainland (U.S.) phones fill up it diverts to overseas help. They are USELESS and will just give lip service which is often wrong. Once you've called enough you can tell by how the phone rings/answer...

Keep in mind they also lost a ton of stock due to that coding error where they allowed people to actually buy the #2 holiday set. Most of those orders ended up shipping and I'm sure that put a heck of dent given how many people probably took advantage of it in mass.

In all honest, I would STILL be happy in your situation Thatguy.... the Birmingham Lego store wasn't giving out any of the peel offs... they just gave a flat 10% off the total purchase. I'm sure that store was not the only one to do that, so in essence, your VIP early shopping gave you a chance at ...

Honestly I might have picked up a couple, but it's not worth the hassle and I'm sure their official position is that the offer didn't stack anyways. It's just the principle of the whole thing. I feel like a tool for believing they were actually going to showcase the entire BF showcase of products an...

I realize this thread is all but dead, but now that the Black Friday ordeal is over I only have one thing to say. Thanks a freaking lot Lego for inviting me to a special event where I was supposed to get the "BF Deals early", and in fact got screwed by spending most of my money expecting t...

AT-OT now back to sold out.

AT-OT 10195 is now back available to order on "back order". Who knows if they'll actually ship but it's worth a try if you were like me and had ALL of your original order cancelled even though I ordered within minutes of the original sale posting.

So it's crazy to me how different each store handled all the 'freebies' and other items. Let me see if I can chronicle the variety of things that were found based on this forum and others I'm on: PAB Box at the door: Some stores got a freebie to fill today while other had no freebie and no boxes wer...

Yeah a few DS's found their way into my car...and it took about 6 trips and those darn yellow bag handles always rip halfway to the car every time. :( Our Store Manager let everyone in and made a nice speech about how much he appreciated our business and we all picked tickets at that point so it was...

Had I not gotten a 50% it would've just been ho-hum or worse especially given 25% or better offers out there at a multitude of stores right now and I can get all those deals while still wearing my pajamas. As expected and as I was told, no open box, no bulk bags, nothing unique. Pretty much spent th...

Sad to hear but what I think we all expected. Not even a muffin spread for everyone?? :) Was there any preference shown towards ranking on the invites? Did number 1 get to pick first, or anything like that?? Did anyone there actually pull a 30 or 50%? I'm due to hit mine shortly and just curious.

I just confirmed with my local store about any final details for tomorrow morning and they said the only thing that they are doing special (versus going online tomorrow) is that we get the scratch cards early (as we already knew). They also said that we are drawing from the same base of cards that e...

Yeah I agree with someone above, there is a programmer/buyer that is hating their life this morning after this...

I just got my shipping confirmation on the first order of these I put it. Still waiting for the other confirmations.

I called TLG and they confirmed that this set is actually discontinued. Just like another poster said, in and out like the limo set last year.

This seriously has to be a strong competitor for the fastest set from release to discontinued as it just came out a few months ago. I won't lie, I grabbed a few while I could.
