lobo1969 Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 Checked 2 in Toronto and both of these locations had the items Lobo listed added to the clearance. Black Gate/UG were both %50 off, and some 2013 SW was %30 off, including Republic Gunship, AT-TE, and the the battlepacks. No older Super Heroes at these 2 locations though. Picked up a couple Black Gates/UG Yep I saw a clearance sticker on the shelf for the Black Gates but all of them were gone at multiple locations unfortunately Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wintersun Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 I confirm almost all those sets in Quebec too. Half of them were not identified as clearance, you need to scan them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should of scanned ship ambush, had a lot left... maybe next tier clearance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lobo1969 Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 I hit one more location tonight and scored 2 more Unexpected gatherings and 5 Blackgates! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedsausage Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 I just hit three targets, the only set left is the at-te. I wasn't too excited about picking it up but I could be persuaded otherwise, any opinions?? Sent from my iPhone using Brickpicker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peenutz Posted June 19, 2014 Author Share Posted June 19, 2014 It's only 30% off at the moment, if you can wait until next week it might drop to 50% if it's not taken yet, but it seems in canada, 30% off is enough to get most ppl to buy SW sets.

speedsausage Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Oh is that how target works? They keep discounting until they're gone? Sent by using my Nosepicker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peenutz Posted June 19, 2014 Author Share Posted June 19, 2014 From what the target guy told me, yes, but it may not make it to next week. Sent from my iPhone using Brickpicker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandwraith Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Oh is that how target works? They keep discounting until they're gone? Sent by using my Nosepicker Not sure i'd bite on this set at %30. It was available for $75 at Walmart for a good while without selling out. It's likely to be a set that will be remade in the future no doubt. But yes Target (from my experience) starts at %30 or %50 and eventually goes to %70. I've rarely seen any Lego reach %70. I think the only one I've seen go that low was a beat up Quinjet.

fatboycarney Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Grabbed 4 Blackgates. That was the only set at 50 Percent off at my target. These were my first of this set. Looks great! Sent from my Nexus 5 using Brickpicker mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my Nexus 5 using Brickpicker mobile app Awesome. 50% is a great deal for us. Heck I would probably buy more at only 35-40% off hehe. I spend too easily No idea what the investment potential of this set is but it just looks cool to me as a fan...I look forward to building this and maybe making it bigger with 2 sets too.

fatboycarney Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 I just pulled the trigger on the ssd and told myself now I would take a break. Well I guess 1 day is a break. Lol. Thanks for everyone's comments as I likely would have missed this. There was no clearance tag and the 2nd one in the row had a clearance sticker on it but the first one didn't. I left 1 behind for someone else Sent from my Nexus 5 using Brickpicker mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

speedsausage Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 I know this is for target but i was at my local walmart and found 1 unexpected gathering left for $70. worth it? It works out to be 18% off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seapotato Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 I think that is too much for investment since others have been finding it for less. I don't doubt that UG will do well since it is an iconic scene from both Lotr and the hobbit but you might have to wait longer to see profits. It is getting harder to find though, so I would get it if you are missing it from your collection. I haven't seen any in my city for ages.

speedsausage Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 That's the way i was leaning after reading other posts how excited people were getting when they have found it. Thanks!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatboycarney Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 There was definitely none at my Target. I would have scooped them up. At 18 percent off I don't think it hurts to grab 1 Sent from my Unknown using Brickpicker mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weakside Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 If you really want one to build asap go get it I guess for $70... or offer a trade. I am sure many Canadians have a lot/some after this clearance. chapter Indigo still has stock so you know eventually they will have a 20-25% off event... plus plum points hehe. I would wait it out. but I know temptation to buy is strong haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

speedsausage Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Well I pulled the trigger and picked up UG. This was at Walmart not target. Now I just have to figure out how to get that clearance sticker off. attachment=3710:ImageUploadedByBrickpicker1403230914.059181.jpg] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
