dcdfan Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 So between eBay TRU & etoys, although they weren't available for a full 24 hours, they sold over 400 within 24 hours. Quote
Fcbarcelona101 Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 Several 10 unit purchases too. Probably people from this site lol.Very popular set, as expected. Should be a good flip for a couple weeks. 1 Quote
montreid Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 At $10 premium, barely any profit probably; this will run deep on inventory if Big Bang Theory is any indication of inventory. It's everywhere initially; doubt quick flip will be on the table; xmas is whole other scenario depending on inventory on this. Quote

That's what Amazon was charging. Quote

Ciglione Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 When does this one come available at Lego SaH? I haven't seen anything yet here in Europe. Quote
jbacunn Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 https://ideas.lego.com/blogs/1-blog/post/38$49.99I stand corrected. Those greedy bastards! Quote
Alpinemaps Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 https://ideas.lego.com/blogs/1-blog/post/38$49.99I'm much more willing to pick this up for myself at $50 vs $60 Quote
jessicaleisure Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 https://ideas.lego.com/blogs/1-blog/post/38$49.99weird Amazon charged over rrp Quote
humanvege Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 i pre-ordered it through amazon at the $59.99 price, should I cancel my preorder and wait till it comes out at the $49.99 price? So I guess it is official that it is supposed to be $49.99 and not $59.99? Quote

humanvege Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 (edited) Doesn't Amazon have a pre-order price guarantee?I think they guarantee that you get the lowest Amazon price before it ships. If amazon doesn't lower its price to $49.99 then we're stuck at the $59.99 price. I would think they'd lower the price after it is released, so after it is shipped. Anybody else preordered through amazon or have any ideas? Edited August 20, 2015 by humanvege Quote
dcdfan Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 I don't recall Amazon selling over list on any Lego. Does anyone else remember differently? Quote
Shislerocco Posted August 20, 2015 Posted August 20, 2015 I believe I had this issue on the rancor pit when it first came out. Even brickset had it listed at msrp wrong. Then once Lego released many corrected Quote

Then once Lego released many correctedThey corrected the price on your pre-order? so you were charged the actual MSRP price, which was lower than your preorder price? Quote
Shislerocco Posted August 21, 2015 Posted August 21, 2015 They corrected the price on your pre-order? so you were charged the actual MSRP price, which was lower than your preorder price?At that point it wasn't s preorder. It was a release that was earlier than Lego released. Quote

jaylay Posted August 21, 2015 Posted August 21, 2015 $20 profit on a $60 set is not terrible, in my opinion.30% profit isn't bad. Multiply that by 10+ and now you're talking. 1 Quote
cladner Posted August 22, 2015 Posted August 22, 2015 Just got the TRU pre-order and the box is HUUUGE (like Trump says). If the MSRP really is $49.99, its a steal. Time for some QFLL action. 4 Quote
jaylay Posted August 22, 2015 Posted August 22, 2015 More like fat! Hope there isn't a lot of dead space in there. Quote
jbacunn Posted August 22, 2015 Posted August 22, 2015 I thought Lego was trying to reduce box size. Jeez. 1 Quote
brickology101 Posted August 22, 2015 Posted August 22, 2015 Does anybody know what will be the Lego SAH limit on Sept 1st. One or two I guess. Quote
tractorboy Posted August 22, 2015 Posted August 22, 2015 That's a nice looking box, if a bit on the large side. 1 Quote
