Achilles Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 Well, investors may not have thought they were popular, but shoppers sure did. The 2 "Full" Toys R Us in my area sold out of them. I purchased two. One had a beat up box though, so I will hope to exchange when they get more. One interesting note: At "Toys R Us Express" (The ones in the mall) They don't give out gift cards, like with this $10 gift card offer. So they instead lowered the price $10, so I got it for $50. Preferable for me anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

binici Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 Most TRU had the shelves empty and were not re-stocking from what three store clerks told me. Should be interesting, but I took most advise from others on here and only purchased two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astroricardo Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 Just a heads up, TRU is offering Palpatine's Arrest free with any 'Hard to Find' purchase. That's SSD, Death Star, new X-Wing UCS and R2-D2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cvail8 Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 To clarify, any STAR WARS hard to find purchase. And it's online only. R2-D2 is out of stock. FAO Schwarz has the same deal and they have Ewok Village for $270. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anakinisvader Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 Holy schnikies how many boxes of Palpatine's arrest does TRU have? This thing is sold out and comes back more than Brett Favre and Michael Jordans multiple retirings added together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justgod Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 In for an X-wing with the 10% TRU card. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed Mack Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 TRU doesn't want affiliates, that's why we really don't promote their products. We let members do so as a courtesy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deez_Brickz Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 Just grabbed an x wing, thx for the heads up. This is better than any black fri deal I saw. I just got an x wing as well and used my 10% November promo gift card. This sold out super fast the last time they ran this promo with the free set.

Or is there another promo today? my TRU doesn't carry an UCS instore :-( It was the bonus gift card that they gave out that had a value of 10% of your November. It was a rewards members promo. Spend up to $1000 in November and they gave 10% back on te promo gift card. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

willy431 Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 I don't really like either set for building, or investing...but bought anyways. Sell the arrest for 40 bucks, get the wing for 160--and another 10 back as I put this on my wish list---so 150 isn't a bad entry point. I do like the box, so I'll display it sealed until I can sell it for a profit--3 years to stare at a box....in hopes of a $250 sale in 3 years...possibly. Unless this one stays for 5 years. So this is what they call buyers remorse? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We let members do so as a courtesy.Toys R Us doesn't want affiliates yet I can't have a single commercial break without one of their damn commercials going on about how 'fantastic' their 'sales' and 'deals' are (and I wasn't even on the Cartoon Network channel).

Same here. I get that commercial no matter which channel I am on. Plus, there sales and deals are not fantastic. They are the opposite of fantastic.

The promo is only supposed to work with wishlists made before the 28th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
