Alpinemaps Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 How can something be marked "Clearance" when it was just put on store shelves and the movie isn't released for another month?! Some crazy Walmart manager's way of moving inventory in a hee-haw market?Just hang around here for awhile. You'll see this isn't the first time. 1 Quote

Some crazy Walmart manager's way of moving inventory in a hee-haw market? Not even 2 months ago someone on this forum reported seeing the new U-wing on clearance at WM the week it came out. Not once, but twice. Could be that they were supplied with too much stock, and the manager decided to use some of his clearance budget to get rid of some of the excess stock. Or could just be a WM that doesn't care. Quote

I've found it best not to try to understand what they do. Just sit back, smile, and watch .... like those $12 UCS sandcrawlers. 1 Quote
Sfcommando14 Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 I did not buy a Ra's al Ghul set from Target today. That might not seem shocking since it's a WM exclusive, but I found one on a Target shelf. The b-team CS reps today couldn't figure out what to do and wouldn't sell it to me. 1 Quote

BricksBrotha Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 (edited) Passed on a mint Pet Shop in an all but baron lego aisle at my Target. Had the red sticker of death at $104.99. I did put it in and out of the cart twice fwiw. Edited January 2, 2017 by BricksBrotha 1 Quote
Val-E Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 No 65 euro 75105 MF´s for me this year. Market for them is saturated and Lepin has done serious damage. Sad, as that has been a staple winner for me in the past. Quote
Lordoflego Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 (edited) @BricksBrotha I'd take 5 at that price. If I'm wrong, i don't wanna be right Edited January 2, 2017 by Lordoflego 5 Quote
Voltron Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 Shelf full of 75084 Wookiee Gunship at 33% off, they've been sitting there for months, was hoping they would have reduced more but no. Not really worth buying right now as only selling for abit above RRP. don't really see much of a future for set aswell. Quote
exciter1 Posted January 3, 2017 Posted January 3, 2017 70904 - Clayface Splat Attack Saw it at Walmart for $3 off and was very tempted to walk out with it. Very cool looking set. 5 Quote

Not really worth buying right now as only selling for abit above RRP. don't really see much of a future for set aswell.I picked up one at 50% off back In March. Still can't get rid of it for under RRP. You made a good decision. 1 Quote
Salimr Posted January 3, 2017 Posted January 3, 2017 70904 - Clayface Splat Attack Saw it at Walmart for $3 off and was very tempted to walk out with it. Very cool looking set.My kids really want that one. Let me know if it is a difficult build as my son no longer wants help. I was afraid it would fall apart easily, so I have not picked it up yet 1 Quote
letsg0leg0 Posted January 3, 2017 Posted January 3, 2017 Picked it up at a local Walmart today for $9 and the box was in pretty good condition. Trying to debate opening it up, reselling it now, or later Quote
Voltron Posted January 3, 2017 Posted January 3, 2017 Loads of shelves full of 40144 Bricktober Toys R Us Store Quote
CrabslayerT Posted January 3, 2017 Posted January 3, 2017 Passed on a shelf of 42032 at £15 each and a couple of 75911 at £30 each. Quote
Val-E Posted January 3, 2017 Posted January 3, 2017 No 70738 at 90 euros with 40% cashback for me today. Quote
donbee Posted January 15, 2017 Posted January 15, 2017 Found a small toy store In The Florida Mall. Looks like they went heavy with Nexo Knights. I can see their history of wise decisions in the Center. My first time seeing one in the wild. I almost bought it so I could say I had one too. 6 Quote
Val-E Posted January 15, 2017 Posted January 15, 2017 Their buyer certainly has his finger anywhere but on the pulse. Don´t get an Exo, the club of those of us who didn´t is much more exclusive! 1 Quote

If you want to belong to that club, I'm sure there are a few us here that would fall all over ourselves to make a sale to you. 2 Quote
Lordoflego Posted January 15, 2017 Posted January 15, 2017 Yeah, I want out of this dang club....but i still have 20 "membership" sets 2 Quote
Guest TabbyBoy Posted January 15, 2017 Posted January 15, 2017 TRU finally called me this afternoon to say that they've tracked down 4x Scooby Doo Mystery Machines to replace the ones that were trashed. I simply replied, "I can't possibly buy them as I'm no longer a TRU customer, I want them MISB and can't go through another 2 month wait for a refund!". It's the Reading branch if anybody wants to pop in and ask for them. Quote
Lottieslego Posted January 22, 2017 Posted January 22, 2017 I went to toys r us to day and was looking at the poly bags they had a hulk 5003048 & 5004406 first order general both £4.99 personally I think that's crazy price what do you guys think ? Hulk was at least a little build but Star Wars was just mini fig Quote
petersjonny Posted February 1, 2017 Posted February 1, 2017 x15 Lego 10702 @ 2.50 each regularly $35 I believe The walmart lady stared at me arm sweeping them, then proceeded to call her manager over and say that they forgot to add a zero...$25/ea....
