Pseudoty Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 7 minutes ago, baublitz said: Well thanks Target... usually they use a giant box and have the set roll around in there, but this is a new low! They are consistently the worst retailer as far as box condition upon arrival. I can't pretend to understand what it's like to work in a fulfillment center but jeez, you'd think someone would know a polybag isn't adequate for an "adult collector's" set. On the other hand, Walmart has consistently delivered the most pristine and well packed sets I've ever received. Strange as that goes against the grain compared to most people's experiences here. Wow that is a poor packaging job was it shipped from a store? Are you going to build it? Most of mine are due here today.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrickLegacy Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 Most likely a) shipped from store b) from a teenager with limited packing/shipping experience c) while wearing a mask and gloves d) during a global pandemic e) who may have thought it was a relatively sturdy box. I'd give some grace in this situation and move on to the next quick flip to make $20. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said, I won't pretend to know what it's like to work in a place where one simply NEEDS to hit a quota and get everyone's orders out on time. I understand, I just probably won't continue to order LEGO from Target if it's for resale. Hard to commit to if it's Target exclusives haha.

cladner Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 target has run out of boxes for medium sized sets. you need to order at least 3 per order of a medium sized set if you hope to get intact. maybe try your luck again. the helmets are back in stock today like they will be tomorrow and the next day. https://www.target.com/p/lego-star-wars-tie-fighter-pilot-helmet-75274-building-kit-cool-collectible-for-adults-723pc/-/A-76555838 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emvisawthatswho Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 So far several B&N orders in “open” status for “pre-order”. Capitol building, tree house, Saturn. Several others cancelled for same items. All showing OOS now. Let’s see how this plays out. So far several B&N orders in “open” status for “pre-order”. Capitol building, tree house, Saturn.

keymomachine Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 Well shoot, my Saturn V was cancelled. Used Gift cards too. What sucks is I saw there was one at a store I could have had a sibling pick up for me but decided against it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oneknightr Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 My 10264 Corner Garage from Amazon ordered on 05/20/20 at RRP was slated to be delivered between 5/27-5/30. It's been delayed to 6/3-6/5. I'm pretty sure it'll be pushed back again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
