maxgc53 Posted August 17, 2013 Posted August 17, 2013 You: "Psst, hey. Hey you. On the down low, between us buddies...friends even. Is that lego town hall retiring anytime soon?" Valued Walmart associate: "Got any weeeed, maaaan?" That's pretty much how I see that convo going. Hahaha I imagine they would say at the closest walmart near me; "Town Hall? This is walmart, The Town hall is 3 streets over man" Quote
glucapg Posted August 17, 2013 Posted August 17, 2013 Santa Claus told me DS will go EOL tomorrow Quote
brickolodon Posted August 17, 2013 Posted August 17, 2013 don't ever believe lego store employees, they know about as much about eol dates as santa claus does cmon, Santa Claus knows everything....elfs know nothing. Quote
Alcarin Posted August 17, 2013 Posted August 17, 2013 Dont trust LEGO employees... do we really need to make headlines for that... they are either clueless or lying... Quote
Anakinisvader Posted August 17, 2013 Posted August 17, 2013 You all really should have more faith in humanity. Funny thing will be when these things do go EOL and a, God forbid, LEGO employee told you and you didn't believe them and missed out. Then who will be the dope? Not Santa that's for sure. 1 Quote
DoNotInsertIntoMouth Posted August 17, 2013 Posted August 17, 2013 Santa Claus told me DS will go EOL tomorrow Santa claus killed my family. Quote

Funny thing will be when these things do go EOL and a, God forbid, LEGO employee told you and you didn't believe them and missed out. Then who will be the dope? Not Santa that's for sure. Look.... we had reports of hundreds employees telling something will be discontinued or EOL, OBVIOUSLY a few of them wil lbe correct.... If a few of them make a correct guess (since we all know common LEGO employees are SURELY not told EOL dates or sets going EOL such lucky guess does not change the fact that they are clueless and lying unless they show you some serious proof. If you would go buy everything I read/heared on here what LEGO employee said I would be sitting on 95% of NOT EOLed sets and 5% lucky guesses... Quote
justafrog Posted August 17, 2013 Posted August 17, 2013 Ever heard the expression "Even a broken clock is right twice a day?" That's pretty much what we're dealing with here. Sure, occasionally one of the low-level store clerks will be "right" - I reckon the vast majority of the time by accident. My broke brother-in-law occasionally says something smart about money, too, but I won't be basing my own financial decisions on his advice. 1 Quote
Diabolos80 Posted August 17, 2013 Posted August 17, 2013 If a Lego employee tells you TB, SSD, HH, TH, etc are all retiring next month, really they're just hoping youll buy them all right now. Pretty sneaky. Quote
Anakinisvader Posted August 17, 2013 Posted August 17, 2013 we had reports of hundreds employees telling something will be discontinued or EOL Hundreds? Quote
MartinP Posted August 17, 2013 Posted August 17, 2013 i do not think that the Town Hall will retire. The Lego employes probably do not know what they are taking about. Quote
Alcarin Posted August 17, 2013 Posted August 17, 2013 Hundreds? If you plan to take everything by word then so be it.... hundreds as ALOT... and they rarely were correct if ever... actually I cannot remember when anyone posted some EOL words of sets from LEGO employee that actually came true....
