I ordered a couple more today in hopes that they can replace two of the damaged ones. If not I'll stop where I'm at and call it a day. 2 Quote
Miami Bomb Squad Posted January 8, 2016 Posted January 8, 2016 Just opened another one from Target. All 6 seals were opened. Time to print another return label. Picked the box up and all the bags came...... Tumbling Down. 1 Quote

Miami Bomb Squad Posted January 8, 2016 Posted January 8, 2016 I'll return it and order another one. I see the UPS guy everyday anyways. Quote

gmpirate Posted January 8, 2016 Posted January 8, 2016 Unless you're just buying a couple, why return them since they are disappearing?? Easy flip no matter the condition of the box in short time. Quote

Target do a international version of their website that us uk'rs can use but they won't sell us Lego, or at least this set, when I tried. Might be able to get it sent to a forwarding company. But by the time vat gets added by customs, the cost of shipping, fees etc its going to be expensive. Quote

33Lego Posted January 8, 2016 Posted January 8, 2016 wondering how many units went to end builders. and how many went with us Quote
Deano86 Posted January 8, 2016 Posted January 8, 2016 Yeah you're right... but the real question is how many makes it worth while.. At $199.99 after VAT fees by customs takes it to aprox £165/set £5 over MRRP. That's before any fees for shipping. On a large scale it probably would be worth it, but I don't have that type of money to put into one Lego set. Expeicially if I have to pay fees to the forwarding co to send half the sets back because they are pancakes! Quote
dustyshelf Posted January 9, 2016 Posted January 9, 2016 Well, I've held off until today to buy my first Tumber. Picked up two from Target today. Quote
P1BradC Posted January 9, 2016 Posted January 9, 2016 Just to give a little hope to all the Target Tumbler orderers, got three in today from Target and all were mint 41R5. Well packed, mucho pillows. Quote

I returned both and figured if I buy more, they are just going to be shipping back out the returns. This is good news! Quote

speedsausage Posted January 9, 2016 Posted January 9, 2016 MUSTTTT RESISTTTTT........ Must resist what? Making money? I'm thinking more along the lines of getting caught up in the horde mentality. Quote
labfreak7 Posted January 9, 2016 Posted January 9, 2016 Making money. I really hope you guys don't think you'll be able to buy it and quick flip. Quote
