Alcarin Posted July 24, 2013 Posted July 24, 2013 just bought Elf Guard polybag from ebay for 14$ shipped. Finally got my own Quote
Huskers1236 Posted July 24, 2013 Posted July 24, 2013 Found 2 LotR Black Gate sets at a Target today for $42 so I picked up both. One box is a bit beat up, so it will get built. I almost waited until tomorrow to see if they would get discounted further, but it's a ways from my work and getting there might have been difficult. Also, I would have been pissed if they were gone. This was the first time I had seen these discounted in town. Walmart was a dud too, only 1 of 3 had any clearances going for Lego. Going to hit up Super Target tomorrow morning to see if anything gets marked down further. Quote
exciter1 Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 Meijer stores are clearancing some sets for 30% off. One store had Hobbit sets like Mirkwood Spiders, Attack of the Wargs, and Goblin King for 30% off. They also had Ninjago: Epic Dragon Battle marked down to $89.99, some Galaxy Squad, Forest Police Station, maybe a few other City and Spongebob sets. This Meijer also had SH Avengers: Hulk Helicarrier Breakout marked down to $37.48. If you guys have a membership card or coupons, now might be the time to use them. I picked up 2 Helicarrier Breakouts, but they still came to just over $40 with tax. I missed the YoYo and Amazon deal the other day, so I picked these up. 1 other Meijer had some stuff 30% off and another had bubkus marked down, zilch, nothing. Although other stuff besides Lego was already marked for clearance. I stopped by a few Targets today and the first one had Attack of the Wargs, Mirkwood Spiders, Vampyre Castle, other Monster Fighters, and Creator Log Cabin all marked 33% off. I should have picked up a couple Attack of the Wargs sets, but I was waiting to see if the other Target stores had them discounted too. They did, but only a measly 15%. Quote

hepcatpunk Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 Mobile Crane $165 VW Camper $95 Pet Shop $100 How'd you score the crane so cheap this quickly? Quote
mr2uboy Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 How'd you score the crane so cheap this quickly? From a friend of a friend. he has two more, I told him I'll take another not sure if I should just take them both. Quote
justafrog Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 Picked up a 6th Minecraft today from BN.com. Tomorrow we head out to check for brick and mortar sales, and Saturday one or two Lego stores. Quote
SuperLegoTramp Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 How are people finding the new technic crane? i didnt think it was even released yet. Quote
cambridge02138 Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 How are people finding the new technic crane? i didnt think it was even released yet. I just saw the Technic Crane at the Toys R Us at Times Square (NY) last week. TRU Times Square had 2 on the sales floor. Quote
wholovesboo Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 Went by a Lego store today to see if they still had MF on sale at 20% (specifically the minifigure set). They did! Picked up one more plus a Vampyre Hearse. Also got a Friends Heartlake High for myself. Used the $30 I had saved up from VIP points on it. Can't wait to build it! Quote
Fcbarcelona101 Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 Found 4 WV Post Offices at the LEGO store of all places... Quote
DoNotInsertIntoMouth Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 Found 4 WV Post Offices at the LEGO store of all places... Wow nice. I got a Tower Bridge on Ebay. Brand new, no box - $169! Box is 2$ on BL! Quote
Diabolos80 Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 Wow nice. I got a Tower Bridge on Ebay. Brand new, no box - $169! Box is 2$ on BL! Dammit! I saw that, too. But I wasted time putting in a best offer instead of just pulling the trigger. I like that seller, though. She sold me a FB for 105, and it was not dropshipped. I messaged her about it, she says they use VIP points, and whatever cash they save comes off the top for their ebay listings. I thought that sounded shady (who does that?), but my legit $105 Fire Brigade says otherwise. Anyway I'm glad you got it. Gonna build it? Quote
peculiar23 Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 picked up a 7914 Mandalorian battle pack for $9.59 at walmart. Quote

I had ebay bucks too - so technically I only paid $120 for it. Doubt I am ever getting a better price on one to build. Already have 2 stored away and my wife REALLY wants one. Quote
Fcbarcelona101 Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 I loved building the TB. One of my favorite displays. It so happens that while I was moving the set had a little....accident where I will now need to build it once again lol Quote
Fcbarcelona101 Posted July 25, 2013 Posted July 25, 2013 Just bought my first set in.....the BRICKPOINT STORE! lol The Council of Elrond for 20,000 BPs 5 Quote
justafrog Posted July 26, 2013 Posted July 26, 2013 Found a few clearance items at the two Targets I visited today. Got 5 licensed character sets to part out (sell the minifigs to recoup most/all of the purchase price, use some parts for our customs, sell the rest of the parts on eBay and Bricklink) and one forest police station (yeah, I know, my husband rolled his eyes too ) to hold onto for a bit and see if anything interesting happens to it EOL. If not, at the price I paid it's still going to be profitable to part out in the end. We'll add a few more Target stops to our book buying expedition on Saturday to see if we can find any other clearance deals. Anyone finding anything good in Wal-Mart these days? There was nothing at all on clearance at two of mine today, but some intriguing hand-written inventory control stickers were on the shelves, making me hopeful they might be a precursor to markdowns. Do Wal-Marts have a set "go on sale" day like Target does Thursdays? Quote
TheDarkness Posted July 26, 2013 Posted July 26, 2013 More LOTR to put aside, Weathertop, Orc Forge and Uruk-hai army. Quote
