Alpinemaps Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 LEGO fans were given an early Christmas for about an hour on Tuesday morning, as the UCS Millennium Falcon 75192 showed up on Walmart's site for 25% off. Normally priced at $799.99, the one hour sale had the Falcon down to $599.99. It hasn't been Christmas for everyone, though, as a number of users reported yesterday that their orders got cancelled. However, a few users have reported that they have shipping confirmations for their orders. And for a brief time this morning, the set showed up once again at $599.99. Keep those eyes open, you never know when this, or any other set, may go on surprise sale in the days leading up to Christmas.

Alpinemaps Posted January 13, 2019 Author Share Posted January 13, 2019 If it was for personal build, I’d still be happy it was in my hands. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

exracer327 Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 Mine had a similar fate, but not near as damaged as yours. It was raining when it was delivered and the UPS guy left it on a puddle. Only damaged one side, fortunately enough. It's for a personal build so I didn't worry about it either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TabbyBoy Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 That's the problem with rare discounts.... all the sheeple want to order asap and then vendors struggle to cope. Of course, this means doing everything in a rush and cutting corners with handling and shipping. My motto has always been "rushing takes longer" as you have to often revisit work and/or handle returns. It's only a matter of time before we see >40% discounts on the MF as there's certainly no shortage of stock right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent offer of $500, was accepted. Used the promo code to pay this morning. Seller feedback checks out. Seller communication checks out. So once again, we roll the dice and we shall see. I flipped 3 of these early on and was waiting on the right price for myself. Will crack the seals when it arrives and start counting bags just to be sure all checks out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
