Sandwraith Posted November 13, 2017 Posted November 13, 2017 Anyone spotted the pallets of the creative boxes yet? Used up a bunch of pieces this year and have to replenish a bit of my parts bins Saw them in Canadian Walmart black friday flyer, 900 pieces $25. Quote

dah_hunter Posted November 16, 2017 Posted November 16, 2017 I have never bought these before. Do they resell? Quote
redghostx Posted November 16, 2017 Posted November 16, 2017 I have never bought these before. Do they resell? This set doesn't look as desirable as past years and may be best suited for a cl/Kijiji flip. Quote

Got a few for gifts. I'm not that optimistic that this will flip for profit like the last three years though...shame...I loved selling these in years past. My local Wally has the pallets on the floor and you can buy them now. Quote
kd123 Posted November 17, 2017 Posted November 17, 2017 (edited) Thanks for the heads up yesterday. Bought three for gifts. Edited November 17, 2017 by kd123 Quote
Sandwraith Posted November 17, 2017 Posted November 17, 2017 Picked up 1 to add to my parts bins as i do every year. Bought 2 other small items to get free shipping that i had been waiting to get, and Walmart sent each one in a separate shipment haha, guessing each one is at a different warehouse or something, but geez. Anyone else notice third party sellers are popping up on walmart.ca? Saw it with Funko pops first, and now i see someone selling a Chewie minifig for $13. Quote

Same as last year, put out on the Wednesday before bf. apparently 2 pallets per store. According to "blue-shirt guy" the first pallet was emptied in less than a half hour the second still had more than half left a couple hours later. no limit on in-store purchase. didn't see any duplo thou. the part selection this year isn't all that bad, some useful colours & elements. after 13% taxes still works out to about 3 cents/element (it's a waay oversized box for the contents) and since everyone & their dog picks these up there's no part-out value but is an easy flip next month, especially if you undercut the greedy kijiji&cl posters & just let them take on the scalping grief.

Majority of the stores I've been to are enforcing the 3 per customer limit more hardcore than cops enforcing speed limit! The demand seems to be lower than the last two years. I see parents just stare at it and walk away. Ironic thing is this is hardly available throughout the year. Edited November 17, 2017 by tacsniper Quote
Thumper Posted November 23, 2017 Posted November 23, 2017 OK, so who broke Walmart.ca? any search for Lego returns nothing but a broken egg. ? Quote

Sandwraith Posted November 23, 2017 Posted November 23, 2017 Looks like Walmart sent my creative box order to the other side of the country and hasn't moved for 6 days, probably lost :(... Can't find anymore in store either, dammit Walmart. Quote

Can't find anymore in store either, dammit Walmart. Placed an on-line order for 3 'cause I figured they'd be scooped up too fast at the nearby wmts this year like last, but they hung around for 3 days until they were moved from the catfood section to the candy section by the front doors. The .ca order showed up a couple days ago (forgot I ordered them since they were so easy to find in store) was kinda worried when I saw the big white plastic bag on the doorstep... but two were safely nestled in their original Lego shipping box and one was completely flattened, broke open & bent over the other's box - they put some serious effort into cramming it into that little garbage bag! at least their .ca returns are quite easy in-store... 1 Quote
