MotorCityMuscle Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 Maybe wrong thread, but does anyone have experience with Amazon packaging called “over box?” Ive verbally had good experience with “frustration free” which usually means a custom LEGO box, but I’ve never seen over box before. Quote

Ordered Vader Castle and I believe it said over box. Came packaged well like other Amazon lego deliveries I have experienced. Haven’t experienced bad packaging when it comes to lego from Amazon. Worse case, they have an easy return policy. I would think hard when ordering from Kohls though. Quote
House Schubert Posted January 5, 2021 Posted January 5, 2021 Man...What the Queue in a Lego warehouse must look like... My HP order from the daylight hours of the 1st has shipped. Burrow on Backorder, but the car, the MBOM and streetlights are all on their way.. Meanwhile, my 3am on the 1st, just after the website came back up, orders of:#1 Police station, #2 Bonsai, road plates, tuk-tuks, all with GWP are still "in warehouse" Fingers crossed that they all ship. 1 Quote
$20 on joe vs dan Posted January 5, 2021 Posted January 5, 2021 I know what you're thinking...so what's the big deal? It's been raining most of the day and night for past couple days...so I guess when I select "At the front door" on the DHL site; they really mean next to the mail box. It was a delivery on my radar so I made sure to check for it... Quote

Yep I’m getting worried as well. All 6 of my orders from 1am on the 1st are still showing as In Warehouse... Quote

Don’t worry, I ordered something on the 31st and still in warehouse. I received an email from Lego stating the order made 31st was being dealt with but expect delays due to a high volume of orders since the 1st. Quote

I sure hope it is true. Given how glitchy Lego online system has been, I don’t feel good until the order is shipped. Quote
gmpirate Posted January 5, 2021 Posted January 5, 2021 These are such stressful times - haven’t slept since New Years Eve. My order status has not changed — or at least I don’t think it has. I set up alarms so I can check every hour but sometimes I miss my alarms and fear I might have missed something. CS won’t take my calls anymore so I don’t know what to do. I’m so glad we have this forum where at least we have each other to comfort. Maybe this just isn’t for me . . . 1 1 Quote

I certainly won't judge someone for inadvertently receiving a DOTS piece of junk as a freebie. However, I WILL judge LEGO for making quite possibly the crappiest piece of "jewelry" ever. I don't wear a lot myself, but if I did, why would I want to watch pieces flying off all day? Shame on you LEGO. Shame. 1 Quote

Alpinemaps Posted January 6, 2021 Posted January 6, 2021 My Jan 1 order is still in warehouse. Of course it is, since I was able to get the order in shortly after the site came back online. 1 Quote

Sumidor Posted January 6, 2021 Posted January 6, 2021 I made two orders on the 1st and they both shipped yesterday. One order was 2 Bonsai trees and one order was the police station. Quote

BrickLover80 Posted January 6, 2021 Posted January 6, 2021 5 hours ago, $20 on joe vs dan said: My Police Station ALSO shipped today...I see a theme Other way around for me. They are shipping in reverse order from when they hit the warehouse. So I'm getting the the two GWP with BHZ, waiting for the backordered HP sets. Quote
zaphoid Posted January 6, 2021 Posted January 6, 2021 I've got a 1 of 4 that has partially shipped from the 1st, and the kicker is that its the HP books, the GWPs and other fillers from that order are still In Warehouse. Quote
Minoly Posted January 6, 2021 Posted January 6, 2021 As of today, all three of my orders from Jan 1st early AM have shipped along with the GWPs. I ordered HP books and the flower bouquet set along with a couple other minor stuff. Two orders arrived and one its on the way so I think they are making their way through the shipping out process. Quote
gtlego Posted January 6, 2021 Posted January 6, 2021 I had two January 1st orders, each with a large, back-ordered Harry Potter set, plus 1-2 smaller items. The smaller items and the GWPs have both now shipped. Quote
KvHulk Posted January 6, 2021 Posted January 6, 2021 All my orders consisted of a set of some sort, the gwps and then a filler item. All filler items and gwps have shipped from all orders. Quote
Pseudoty Posted January 6, 2021 Posted January 6, 2021 I got my Police station today. Is this something Lego has been doing to help stop leaks, removing the set name from the outer box? 1 Quote
