supergtp1 Posted June 24, 2014 Posted June 24, 2014 Got my one TB during the Friday deal and I'm extremely impressed! It's minty fresh! Sent from my iPhone using Brickpicker 2 Quote
holleman67 Posted June 24, 2014 Posted June 24, 2014 So the two came in a Lego packing box, looking fresh as can be. The other three in a box 2x the size of the tower bridges (didn't know boxes that big exists) with two surprisingly mint . The third set is open on one end, seals not cut but never ever placed on the top of the flap. I'll have to try and get a replacement. Damage is one thing but an opened box is another story 2 Quote
allen9917 Posted June 24, 2014 Posted June 24, 2014 Congratulations to all who got orders delivered. Still waiting for 2 pairs to be shipped. At least they are not cancelled so far. I'm actually surprised you big time players did not go big on this deal. Back then when Target offering $30 gift card on the HH people were talking about maximizing the purchase limit of 8. This is a much better deal on an exclusive that is about to retire (supposedly, at least). Is this because the scary stories about walmart shipping or do you have concerns on this set's potential?

warrior44 Posted June 25, 2014 Posted June 25, 2014 No I got in on the last possible second. Well played Wal-Mart well played! I had 9 of 10 ship with one cancelled. I simply called Wal-Mart cs and did a repurchase at the full.price and she did a refund back to the 148 price as a one time courtesy. She saw that the tb was in stock when they cancelled the order.

waddamon Posted June 25, 2014 Posted June 25, 2014 Received an email back from walmart. Said tht there was a pricing error and that the set was available for pur hase at regular price. I told them that was not good enough and a misrepresentation of price and that they need to honor it. Otherwise they can price things how they like and cance your order later. We'll see if that get anywhere. Quote

We'll see if that get anywhere. Not sweet. Ask them why person XYZ got their order fulfilled and they chose to cancel your order? Maybe they just like to discriminate against certain customers. Quote
BrickLegacy Posted June 25, 2014 Posted June 25, 2014 My two orders with two TBs each are marked as shipped with UPS confirmation numbers. Sent from my iPhone using Brickpicker 2 Quote
imirish11 Posted June 25, 2014 Posted June 25, 2014 5 TB from yesterday have been marked shipped and already on transit. Should arrive on Friday. 3 in 1 box and 2 in another. Fingers crossed. Quote
Alpinemaps Posted June 25, 2014 Posted June 25, 2014 All this talk about orders getting cancelled for the TBs had me worried. My WM order was updated tonight to show that it shipped yesterday, and is in transit. Wish I would have spent the money for faster shipping...won't be here until next week. Quote
amtrak23 Posted June 25, 2014 Posted June 25, 2014 Congrats on getting the TB's. Never caught it live. If anyone wants to dump some for a quick profit let me know. Quote
allen9917 Posted June 25, 2014 Posted June 25, 2014 All TB's marked as shipped. It is apparently a price error, but my wild guess is they were trying to clear the remaining stock and marked it down by mistake. A sign of EOL? Quote

From what I read it seems more are shipped than cancelled. Quote
Alpinemaps Posted June 25, 2014 Posted June 25, 2014 From what I read it seems more are shipped than cancelled.yeah, but my luck would be to have it cancelled. Quote
marcandre Posted June 25, 2014 Posted June 25, 2014 Four TBs shipped for me. I have another order of 4 I have not heard on yet. Quote
holleman67 Posted June 25, 2014 Posted June 25, 2014 Tower bridges are flooding the market!!!!!!!! Quote
waddamon Posted June 25, 2014 Posted June 25, 2014 They responded again and said no way, suck! At least they shipped 4 which makes absolutly no sense at all. I have no idea how this company became #1. Too big for their own good. Oh well cannot win them all. I will hold tight at 26 tb and hope for another error. Quote
marcandre Posted June 25, 2014 Posted June 25, 2014 Got a shipping confirmation on the other 4 TB's. This is the best deal I have gotten on legos since I started last year Quote

I'm going to call them so they can hear the sorrow in my voice. My other one shipped though. Looks like it came out of IL, what has been the condition coming out of that shipping center? Quote
