hxckid88 Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 Good news. Ignore Walmart status in how they have things divided up. As with most of you I see orders of 2 1 2 etc. However, everything shipped in 2s in lego boxes and one box of 2 in walamrt box . Completly inaccurate from what is displayed in status. More to come tomorrow. This is half of my orders. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Brickpicker mobile app 1 Quote
ISO8T0 Posted February 20, 2015 Author Posted February 20, 2015 I got 29 out of the 50+ CTs I ordered in the mail today. The mailman legitimately lectured me for giving him so much work today. I tried to explain to him that I didn't plan on these arriving on any day and I am not really so sure what I can do about getting things in the mail to ease his workload. I wanted to call his supervisor, but figured I would give him a break with it being this freezing (-15 pre-windchill this am). I am sure I will get some nicely handled packages in the immediate future. Would you guys do anything or just drop it? so you don't see a problem ordering 50+ CTs? perhaps you should give him some hand warmers, a tip or a GC to a local eatery. You can afford to spend nearly $2k on CTs but you can't help out your postal worker? 1 Quote
smittypop2 Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 I shouldn't order so many items because it hurts the postmans feelings? I have never heard that one before. I tip him and the UPS guy at XMas. I know about .00000001% of the population even does that for them. I am sorry about his extra workload today, but he makes a fair salary and has great benefits for his job (and so does the UPS driver). I didn't know this would be turned around on me. I guess I apologize for my behavior of getting mail. Quote

You can afford to spend nearly $2k on CTs but you can't help out your postal worker? In all honesty I hate this mindset. He's Mad.... It's his job. He gets paid well for it. Ask emazers. If you don't like it get another job. Why would. I tip u..... Ur not a server or bartender etc. I hate how everyone feels they need a tip for doing what they are paid and supposed to do. With hat said I did just hook my FedEx dude up with a surge. My usps guy lives having to deliver so much to me. Less stops for him. As I've said before I used to work for ups. I like heavy work loads to one location. 1 Quote
@rtisan Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 I won`t pass judgement, but just as a personal rule, anytime I get any form of service that is perhaps more than the norm, I try to give a tip of some kind. Always tip your server (unless your service is extremely poor, even then I still leave a tip, usually, it`s doesn`t happen often), bagman, etc. I don`t know if tipping the UPS guy for delivery 1,2,3, 5 packages is warranted, but if a guy hauls 10-20 parcels to my door and makes that many trips, I`d most likely give them a tip. Just my opinion, but that said, they do get paid well so I don`t think it should be an obligation. The driver should not be expecting a tip, nor should you feel the need to. Quote

But average ups driver makes 86k. Family friend who's been there for 20 odd years makes 6 figures with free benefits. Quote

newbie77 Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 This one time.... I had a kitchen in my house. good grief .. how many is that? 50 of them? Quote
hxckid88 Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 40. I believe someone here got 90 so I'm sure my pic will be an afterthought by tonight. Put most of my orders were of 5 so I'm stoked they divided up and shipped in actual original boxes. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Brickpicker mobile app 1 Quote
trekgate502 Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 Does anyone else still have any CT shipments in processing status? 30 of my 50 shipped 2 days ago. I ordered them all at the same time early that one morning (1-2-3am?) when it first started. The other 20 have not shipped yet. Strange. Quote

exciter1 Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 You guys couldn't save any for us huh? These towers were the easiest QFLL ever. Not in podunkville. Quote
pcaster Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 (edited) 3 of 10 (orders) shipped for me. Edited February 20, 2015 by pcaster Quote
gregpj Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 (edited) Not in podunkville. Really? I had to delete my ad to stop people asking about it before people picked them all up. I could have probably sold 50 of them in a week for $80 a piece (they were $45 after tax). I don't know where I would have stored them, but that doesn't seem to be stopping anyone! *edit... haha, oops, realized what I said about podunkville. some people might say that about where I live - we are 8 hours from the next major city* Edited February 20, 2015 by gregpj Quote
Val-E Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 EV shipped but SSD back order from November has been cancelled by [email protected] Still waiting for the cancellation of GE from December. Quote
joch29 Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 If that's the case, what are the most recent dates anyone has for the CTs? CT = Creative Tower I just got my order of CT..date on the seal shows 47R3...huh??? 1 Quote
ravenb99 Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 If that's the case, what are the most recent dates anyone has for the CTs? CT = Creative Tower 16R4 but don't think that product is a good example. The CT's are just an old product that they found more of in my opinion. That would of already been in DC's for awhile. Quote
dcdfan Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 I just got my order of CT..date on the seal shows 47R3...huh??? So far mine are 2013 also. Not new overproduced product. Quote
supergman Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 Did anyone get the Creative Towers from two days ago when they came back for $35, right before they went away and came back again at $45? Or, was your order(s) cancelled? Quote
