My order status

[Cbenioff]

Got 25 more to add to my 5. I know these can easily be turned for profit but I can't bring myself to buy more.

You'll regret it later on if you don't buy more now.

[newbie77]

[ravenb99]

Can't touch this Gallimimus

 

[Brickshopper]

Do they have 10,000 plus you think or are these not shipping

[ravenb99]

Not sure, know of close to 3000 ordered so will know in a few days I suppose

[zskid00]

Down to 500 left.

[cardkid]

451 left. Nice round $1800 if someone wants to take them all out.

[dcdfan]

12 hours. Pretty impressive...

[Guest brickcrazyhouse]

If we had our own club house they could have shipped 99% to us in one giant polybag

[zskid00]

This will be the first polybag I don't intend to flip immediately.

I don't think this is something that people need to dump in fear of a refresh next week so (in theory) it shouldn't be that bad...

I think it will be that bad for singles. Might be some meat on the bone for selling 10 or 20 packs for $10 profit but that is about it. All these are good for is ranking up accounts to TRS, loss leaders / metric savers, or getting rid of old bubble mailers lying around.

[HappyHawkeye]

gone? I can no longer add these to my cart.

[Ed Mack]

They had thousands left yet I didn't get a free one last week.

We'll see, but, unless they release another batch of these and they become widely available, I think that these will be steady profit-makers largely because they would have only been available as a promo for one week and for purchase for one day.  There may a lot out there, but I think that you are underestimating the market for a set that was only available for such a short period of time.

[Kevink24]

Not sure about the rest of you...but I thought I purchased my gallimimus order before the initial panic buying began this morning...and yet, I just received an "unexpected delay in shipment" e-mail. Not sure if all will ship out...we shall see...

For anyone using gift cards with a purchase that gets cancelled, make sure you verify that the balance gets loaded back on the card. I don't know if Toys R Us is still having these issues, but its happened in the past. All I could get from them was a rewards certificate for the amount after many calls and emails.

[justapilgrim]

in for a couple hundred last night, separate orders, listed as In stock on order status, so may have beat the horde

for the skeptics, read my polybag selling thread from Xmas. I sold 200-300 xmas tree polybags, and good war stories/learning if you have never sold polybags

its a dinosaur for $4, there will always be meat on the bone for a $4 lego dino

I forgot they some times have issues loading the balances back. Thanks for the reminder.

[ravenb99]

The majority went in large amounts seeing it was online with no limits so think it will be in less hands then if they had been in stores.  Sure were not down here in quantity in store

[supergman]

I got 12 last night online and the local TRU only had 14 in-stock for pickup.  Good enough for me, some for kids and neighbors, a few to sell and make my money back.
