Yinchuan Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 I apologize in advance if not in the correct thread, but has anybody had any success with the stock tracker alert function? i turned on a few alerts and each and every time the item is not at the correct price even if I immediately click on the link. About 25 of these have come across my alert and not a single one is correct. Could be F5'ers Johnny on the spot, but wanted to check to see others experiences. Thanks!

rdandy5875 Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 I'd say it's a good few minutes behind actual. I've caught a couple in stock within the last week, this was without the tracker alerts. The stock tracker notified me about 5 minutes AFTER I have completed the orders, that the items were in stock. I've resorted to checking many times a day and f5 ing when I can. But sometimes I'll get an alert while I'm doing even that. That is fishy because I would have seen it in stock unless someone snuck in between refreshes. Hmmmm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The force awakens sets were valuable to have on here due to the Christmas rush and them selling out and creating a big Quick Flip Opportunity. Ironically, Poe's Xwing was not included and that ended up being the harder to find set. Slave I and Jawa Sandcrawler are fairly commonly found at all retailers so there's little value to adding them ..........yet. But I'd like for them to be added in the near future. There is a cost to adding these sets, which is why the Macks don't just add them all. With that being said, i wonder if it might be worth it to suggest sets to pull OUT of the list so they're not wasting money / texts / server effort checking on sets that are universally in stock (or out) and appear to be so for the foreseeable future. I'd suggest 10697-1: XXXL Box for one. Another idea would be to only search on the NEW price. Otherwise it's a bit distorted. For example, the 10240 Xwing is listed at 259.99 but that's a used price. The new price is 299.99 Edited January 25, 2016 by mudcatsfan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UCS items aren't sold at regular retailers unless you live in a major city like New York or Chicago. Even then you'd only find them at a Toys R US. They're typically online only, and of course at Lego exclusive stores. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That shouldnt be a problem if you're in the US. Both are available several places online for retail right now. If anything you should be aiming to get those below retail by utilizing discounted gift cards, points back through credit cards, gift with purchase from Lego.com (when they offer that) etc. Good luck to you, 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uaford Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 I have been getting an update that the Tumbler is back in stock at SAH, but I am already on the page and it never shows up even if I press refresh immediately...are they really getting them in and selling in the milliseconds before I press refresh? Or are there false alarms sometime? I am new to Lego building and have been trying to get a Tumbler for retail with no luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdandy5875 Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 I think a combination of people like us, and also the fact that the stock tracker is not 100% on-time. I've proved this to myself before on a couple HTF items that I got lucky to order via F5'ing, and a couple minutes later the stock tracker alerted, but it was already poof. A minute delay a long time with HTF sets. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can maybe add Fairground Mixer and Mini Cooper, although I have no idea about their future status. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
