Michael_Trinh Posted August 8, 2013 Posted August 8, 2013 Ah! My mistake. I've only bought the 2 orders of 4 from LEGO Shop at Home so far. The other 8 I personally bought with the help of a few family members at 2 different Lego Stores. All cash purchase and no VIP. I read about the 40 Funhouse incident haha. I'll just make the trip out to Chicago! Quote
kerrmando Posted August 8, 2013 Posted August 8, 2013 I don't think they will ban you for six of the same sets through LEGO Shop at Home at different times spread out over different days...unless you've been doing something quite crazy before with regards to purchases just my thoughts. Quote

I agree with you on that. But when they ban people, they do not know who they are really banning. They could ban person because they bought too many sets to give out as gifts and TLG would probably not know that. I think that TLG should have a really good reason to ban someone, other than they have bought a lot of the same set. Quote

This is a little different though being an exclusive - makes it obvious it is for reselling. Quote
Ed Mack Posted August 8, 2013 Posted August 8, 2013 This is a little different though being an exclusive - makes it obvious it is for reselling. I agree. This set is very collectible. The model itself is cool and the box and numbered plates are awesome. This could be a test to see who is really a reseller. I don't think two will be an issue, anymore than that, I would seriously consider the consequences. Quote
kishidan69 Posted August 8, 2013 Posted August 8, 2013 Just when onto Lego LEGO Shop at Home Aus - it is marked as a red 'sold out' with no further ship dates, same on the US or UK site - is this it? All done and dusted....? Quote
TheDarkness Posted August 8, 2013 Posted August 8, 2013 US just says Out of Stock Will be interesting to see the big rush of people putting them on ebay, and then the discounts that follow the flood if people can't make a quick flip Quote
M4x18 Posted August 8, 2013 Posted August 8, 2013 It's sold out on LEGO Shop at Home Spain! GONER! Quote
kishidan69 Posted August 8, 2013 Posted August 8, 2013 My mistake - yes, shows out of stock in the US Quote

TheDarkness Posted August 9, 2013 Posted August 9, 2013 EU sites show sold out! Happy happy! Joy joy! Haha. I am waiting for the flood of these to hit. Quote
Guest ph4tb0i Posted August 9, 2013 Posted August 9, 2013 back of my box has the dreaded punch... ripped a role in my hot dog polybag too.. lol. Quote
stephen_rockefeller Posted August 9, 2013 Posted August 9, 2013 I wonder what they are gonna gonna do with all the returns with holes in them? Send them to stores and discount them maybe?? Quote
gte206w Posted August 9, 2013 Posted August 9, 2013 I lucked out and only have one small indent in the front, from the Mech. I was hoping that the two BTTF sets that were in there would act as sentinels but no such luck as that. Quote
SuperLegoTramp Posted August 9, 2013 Posted August 9, 2013 UK site says available now? The date previous was 22nd Sept Quote
kishidan69 Posted August 9, 2013 Posted August 9, 2013 UK site says available now? The date previous was 22nd Sept It does to now, so does the Aus site - 'available now' with no delayed ship date shown.....false alarm... Quote
gregpj Posted August 9, 2013 Posted August 9, 2013 Got mine today in great condition despite the mini mech. A little scuff and squish on one side, but 99% perfect. Though they could have put a few more air pack bags. Quote
willy431 Posted August 9, 2013 Posted August 9, 2013 Hmm....for a specialty box like this...we would order 2% more than shop order. This is to account for cartoner errors and misfeeds... BUT this box looks hand packed/closed....so they may have very few extras on hand. Very few. The set up charge and press time is where the cost is...so they would never order another couple hundred printed or some such small qty. I am assuming they don't do their own printing..but perhaps they do...vertical integration runs deep in old europe. Quote
