odysea11 Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Well....I started firing on all cylinders again with Walmart. But not anymore.....my last 6 orders have been cancelled. Anyone else seeing this still? It's funny how Target touts that they don't sell to resellers and they don't accept tax-exempt accounts, yet I personally have spent a truckload of money at Target buying tons of Lego with zero problems (they even upped my credit limit!!). But Walmart accepts tax-exempt accounts, doesn't say anything about selling to resellers, yet they are cancelling orders left and right and leaving HUGE amounts of money on the table. I don't get it...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't get it...... I don't even bother with Walmart. The stopped numerous small orders for no reason (credit card BS excuse) and they are slow. Target lets me buy what I want and ships quick. No hassles. Plus I get the 5% back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I placed a few orders with Target this morning and already got a confirmation they shipped. I’ve never had any issues with cancellation either, but with Wal Mart they seem to cancel anything I order multiples of, even if it’s only 2 or 3 copies of a set.

carini26 Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 (edited) What on earth quantities are you guys ordering? I have been going with small bursts. 6 in one order, 9 in next, etc mixing up different SKUs in each order a few times a day. I managed to dodge the Wally and Target hammers using this method, or at least I've convinced myself it's working. They may just view me as a weirdo LEGO guy who likes to set up large scale battles between Steve and Rapunzel with one side set in Paris and London and the other on a farm just outside Chicago. EDIT: Okay, so $25K over 8 orders. A little less sneaky than 6 per order. Edited December 17, 2018 by carini26 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redcell Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 Just now, carini26 said: What on earth quantities are you guys ordering? On anything less than $20, I'm generally buying max quantity of each set in each order (~100). For anything over $20, it varies, anywhere from 20-100.

Just the standard payment excuse...I got it once before during the $10 GC promo when I placed a bunch of orders in rapid succession. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
