macpro76 Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 I plan to get all UCS sets to the limit, staggering purchase to 1 per order. To get the free Kai dragon as well. Plus it's easier to track and know what (if any) orders get cancelled for any reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There will be more double point opportunities later in the year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Mack Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 I ordered a Sandcrawler, my order from Target the other day was cancelled, so they are definitely out. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do expect these to see further discounts at retailers as the year goes on. I'm debating now to get a Brick Bank or Batcave. I don't do much investing through S@H. I buy mostly for personal use from them. I might buy some investment sets here and there when they have great promos at Christmas, etc. I rarely buy 5 of anything and I mix up the orders. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me too, for the most part. I grabbed two of these from S@H. Since I don't spend the time tracking down discounts in an area that has few, this is a decent deal with double VIP. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muffin Cup Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 (edited) I ordered a Sancrawler and a Slave I even though they're both out of stock (expected ship date ~ March 20th). Just want to lock in those double VIP points. I look forward to getting a Kai Dragon shaped dent in each of the boxes.

CoastaLego Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 Stupid question but double vip points is in Lego Stores as well right? Or just online? Thinking of stopping by the store today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you order backordered products, they'll go ahead and ship the freebie first, sets later. It works out well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can call them, verify the orders, and all will be well or 2) The BANHAMMER strikes again. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It works out well. LEGO Shop at Home stopped doing this several promotions ago, a workaround is to order a small item or even pick a brick to force the freebie shipment in case the backordered product is cancelled. YMMV but this was confirmed by several other members in 2016. Edited March 7, 2016 by legogregors 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

News to me. Last time I ordered stuff that was backordered in January they went ahead and sent promotional item.

We've also mentioned in the past that calling them excessively will put a target on your back too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't suggest you push your luck just yet... Have you read the LEGO Bans open discussion thread? If you haven't I highly suggest you do so before proceeding. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you or anyone else gets the promo shipped immediately this month with a back ordered single item from LEGO Shop at Home, please post. This would be great news as it did work out very well in the past. If it is something I really want, I will be adding a filler item just in case.
