[USA] BN Instores Kids Club Coupon 30% off MSRP on LEGO

[Toronadian]

Also got my shipping notice for the Podracers about an hour ago after previously being delayed.

Anyone find it ironic how its approximately the same time coupon exclusions came in and the time when orders were shipped?

[Luciant]

Not me. The cost of 30% off plus them paying shipping (probably an addition $10-15 or more for MF or Podracers because of the size of the box), plus the sheer number of them being purchased has got to be putting a dent in their profits for sure.

Notice they haven't put out firm orders to stop coupon being used IN STORE. And thats allowing you to even get an additional 10% off on top. They don't carry many of the high-priced sets in store (I'm talking $100+), so your not getting killed on the big profit sets, and still making some on the lower to mid priced sets. That shows you it's more about the sheer volume and the cost of the shipping that's driving the changes.

Looks like the coupon exclusions finally caught on for the Millennium Falcon and Podracers.

The good news is I got an email an hour ago saying that my Millennium Falcon has been shipped. I was getting a bit worry cause I received an email earlier that it would be delayed. But its all good now!

Same here! Phewww finally it's coming!

I accepted the 30 day extension but should I be concerned that it will be cancelled in the future? Did they do this to anyone here before?

Same on my side, I finally received "on its way" shipping confirmation email for my podracers after getting delay shipping email earlier.

Never on my order. It's not too bad that they did not cancel your order.

Sorry, but I don't think you are getting your falcon.

Agree. I guess the next 30% off for BN online lego order will happen at special event lasting for 1 or 3 days only, which is similar to 15% off from Columbus day weekend.

My MF has been shipped!

Sorry, but I don't think you are getting your falcon.

I had this once before, and I think of the same, that you won't be getting your order.

I waited for 7 weeks or so after receiving this. I reorder after a while and swoosh it came to me... I suppose my previous order went to Bermuda Triangle.

Thanks for the input folks! I got an email this morning that they sent it out - I have no clue why they even asked me to extend my order if they planned on shipping it out the next day. But they probably don't really know what they are doing. Anyways, I am happy that they sent it out. Can't beat that price!

Thanks again for your thoughts!

[pumbaugh]

looks like big bentleys bust out is only set left coupon works on....bummer!
