ravenb99 Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 I think with them its just totally random like everything else. I'm fairly close to the facility and get shipped next day. On a seperate note my friend will order same thing , same time, same city and his always is processed after mine. Usually comes a day after so theres no reasoning behind it. As long as the orders keep coming I wouldn't worry about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redghostx Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 Interesting, ya you`re definitely playing with fire there. Haha, the funny thing is I haven`t ordered a whole heck of a lot, at least what I`d consider a lot. I buy my exclusives from ToysRUs or in store and only order things for the promos online. Guess I`ll find out tomorrow. Awww, thanks Any update? I ordered yesterday from Canada LEGO Shop at Home and it shipped out this morning from MS.

mscheaf Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 Mine is still in process, and if all goes normally it will be in process until sometime next monday or tuesday. Hoping to get it by the end of next week. 2 weeks is about the normal turn around time for me for orders that are in stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quacs Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 Weird I have never had one take less than 4 days to process. When I ordered two advent calendars earlier this month they were in process for 6 days, 8 if you include the weekend. I have had the same issue - long durations spent in process. That said, there are other times where they ship lightning fast. It's pretty hit or miss for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anolian Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 Does any one know how long the promotion is for the D2C Minifigure Retro Set 2014. I cant seem to find any info on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

asharerin Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 With the new ban policy the big buyers who used to get hundreds of each promo item are gone. Now promos last the entire month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephen_rockefeller Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 The promo originally stated Sept 15 end date but was changed to while supplies last. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toycrazedchris Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 I still have the email from Lego sent on 9/2 for the Spaceman VIP promo and it states, "from September 1 - 14, 2014, or while supplies last." I keep all the promo emails, the ones I checked all have this same wording. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ravenb99 Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 Yeah it did originally say the 14th or while supplies last. Now it should read until Brickpickers deplete the rest lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also secretly reintroduces high value promos that everyone thought were already retired! Imminent doom forecasted! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flemdog33 Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 Ordered another one last night and got three free promos! That's a heck of a deal with the added camper poly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newbie77 Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 With the new ban policy the big buyers who used to get hundreds of each promo item are gone. Now promos last the entire month. big buyers don't rely on orders to get the promotions. i am sure there are other avenues for these big resellers to achieve those high value promotion items. i think there is someone in amazon with 25-30 spaceman for sale. do you literally think that the person made 30 different purchases to get those. i highly doubt it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine getting spaceman promo PLUS holiday promo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tabc59 Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 Yes it is unlikely, but not impossible if they have enough different accounts. I have about 20 of the spacemen, and every single one came from a different order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newbie77 Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 (edited) Yes it is unlikely, but not impossible if they have enough different accounts. I have about 20 of the spacemen, and every single one came from a different order. sure. how long have you been doing this? it may not be impossible for/during the short term. but these large resellers have been around for years and they have been doing it consistently. so coming back to your enunciation yes its possible but i don't think they are doing that. i am sure they have better efficient mechanism of achieving it. if they look hard enough sooner or later every single of these account will be in radar.
