TRUTH Tactics : and now the end is here

I was going to avoid this sale, but even I couldn't say no to in store TRUTH, $10 of coupon and promo. I grabbed 2x Dr. Who, and also their last Wall-E.

My store had TONS of Scooby Mansion still on the floor. Also, they had Hurricane Heists for $30, cheaper than the website, if anyone is hankering for some Ultra Agents. T-Rex Trackers and Sandman weren't marked on the shelf properly, but rang up at the proper sale price. They had tons of T-Rex. Clerks said the season is going much slower than even last year. 

RE: Jurassic World for investment, there just seem to be so many people hoarding these, I Have a hard time seeing them turning a decent profit for a very long time. 3 years minimum. Most have 200ish sellers on Amazon as is.

Damn, everything's gone at my local TRU. I should've ordered yesterday instead of waiting for the Saturday 10%. Good stuff OOS online now too.


No surprise as yesterday around 5:30 pm in my store there was about a dozen people ravaging what was left.

What I liked about this sale, unlike the Amazon sale, is is a lot of what was sold in store went straight to the end users instead of reseller scum, so less competition for all that was bought across the board.

After 5 separate purchases using the 10 off 75, TRUST, and discounted 20% off Staples Gift Cards, here is my modest haul (before 8.625 NY Taxes)

2 x Trevi Fountains $21.23 each

3x Hulk Busters $15.74 each

2 x Mystery Mansions $34.60 each

2 x Lego Maze $48.34 each (wish I could have bought in lower but I wanted one for myself and one to keep in case it skyrockets due to short shelf life)

2 x Doctor Who $25.59 each

i wanted to find some and Wall-Es for the 15% and TRUST and gift cards but everyone was out of them (even though stores showed they had stock). 

I left some Tie Advanced vs A Wings because I'm a little worried that the new A-Wing will eat into it

You're a little worried about picking up Tie Advanced sets for $35 each?

Haha you make an excellent point...

I was ranking based on what I am most confident about and I don't wanna kill my whole budget with 2-3 more weeks of deals possibly coming up.  I still have a few hours to go back there if I change my mind I guess.

The stock on these has really dwindled at TRU when you look at all available in even the larger states, most stores have only 1 or 2.

Speed Champs F14 Scuderia finally went oos  in the last hour.  i did my part.

is today the last day of the Staples 20% of TRU GC sale?

I'm hoping TRU sale price more Lego next week so I can receive a bunch more cancellation notices. Seriously, how do you not know what you have available? Sure, I occasionally find a box of something not accounted for but I sure as hell don't list it as available for people to order.

Me too.  How can they be so far off with their inventory.  Going from items in stock then straight to cancelled.

Took me forever to sell the original Ferrari set I had so I passed on those. Cool set but hard to move.
