Frustration Free packaging for LEGO probably means shipped without the outer retail box which has been crushed and beaten so badly you'll want a discount when it arrives, i.e. Open and Verified Contents.

Also, we can now ship in a smaller box so we can fit more items into a single delivery and lower our costs which we don't pass onto you.

Not sure how much more I can dislike this guy...

Did you accidentally post an image with your home address on it? On mobile app I see the shipping address in CT as the thread art.

The mobile app is extremely guilty of holding onto cached images ... Perhaps @Jeff Mack can flush it.

Won't be mint, if you're building it?

Undecided.  Plenty to build right now.  A bit long of a hold I guess.  Couldn't pass up the price.  Either way I do like my boxes pristine as I believe down the road new or used the better box will always bring the most value especially in a more adult oriented set.

Good to know - I wondered what the "Amazon box" was about. I'll see how my Buckingham Palace arrives (build only, but still!).

My Buckingham Palace arrived today - as predicted, not selecting 'Amazon Box' for a single item gets you Lego shipped with just a label attached (no actual shipping box)... Lesson learned - ALWAYS select the new 'Amazon Box'... Sad as I'm a Prime member and a member of Amazon since 1997!

Mine arrived in a shipping box in good condition.  I haven't noticed this other option yet, but it may have just been thrown in there, since I was buying multiple sets.

Kmart gift cards from Paypal Digital on Ebay are slow to be delivered today.  Ordered about 2 hours ago.  Past orders have taken no longer than 30 min.  Nothing in Junk Mail either (well other than someone else's junk ;) ).

Ouch!  10/21 is a long time unless that is suppose to be 09/21?  Email delivery?  I didn't see an estimated date when placing my order and guess I'll need to pay closer attention next time.  I have $10 surprise points sitting in my cart I was hoping to use today :( on top of the discounted sets/extra 5% off.  I also just received my paypal order confirmation email which typically comes at the same time as my ebay confirmation.  Must be slow today.  

Sorry, 9/21

Big technic shipped from Walmart .. 

w00t! So did mine!

EDIT: FedEx tracking says label was created on Monday (9/19) with expected Delivery Date of today (9/21), but that they are waiting for the item to arrive. Weird.

Mine did as well.  Was going to go for a couple 76051s, but bummed they raised the price from yesterday by about $13.  Really like the ant-man collection in this set.  Now to find something else to load up on.

Well got my BWE 42055 today from the Walmart $187.99 sale. Ordered 2, (site to store) and as expected one was all but destroyed. Both THIN shipping boxes were badly collapsed and had no where near enough packing material. However SOMEHOW one made it with only minor collapsing on the bottom. At least I got one!

I just received my Walmart order today as well from the weekend sale for the Bucket Wheel Excavator, Claas Xerion 5000, Architecture Capital Hill, and Buckingham Palace. I lucked out that they did very well packing all of them. The Bucket Wheel Excavator is just such a big box and heavy that pretty hard not to get some damage unless they use packing paper/air bags on all sides with some room to move to avoid pushing in on the set box as well.

So why is kmart struggling?   Could it be the practice of shipping one set (ordered about 10 sets over past couple days from them) on an order placed a couple days ago with free shipping selected.  No packing at all.  Thankfully only minimal damage to a corner.  Win for me this time, but we all lose if they go out of business.
