stephen_rockefeller Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Is it the manager that doesn't want to hold anything or is it that particular store policy?it's a Texas state law.....lol just kidding. Man I don't what their deal is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartinP Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 it's a Texas state law.....lol just kidding. Man I don't what their deal is. Maybe it's the manager who doesn't want to hold sets for anyone. I have read on Brickpicker about no so nice store managers that don't care about anything, even refusing to give someone the promo for the month even though they fulfilled the requirements.

trekgate502 Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 "only they said that they are no longer allowing reservations for sets" - could that mean they are getting a barge worth? So they just don't want to deal with lists? I hope your wrong... I think it was two different people and stores but not sure... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@rtisan Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 My 2 Shipped out on Monday and are in transit. Can`t wait, though I definitely won`t be building these. Going in a nice plastic tub to keep them in good shape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChristopherJB Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 Just landed in Vancouver for work and at Richmond TRU. Unbelievable.....30 of each on the shelf and laughing my butt off. I took 25 of each. Left 5 on the shelf for the ones who come onto BP. Canadians are mainly snoozing over this. Bet the lego store is still stocked up. Will check tomorrow.

speedsausage Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 I'm a little surprised that you would pick up that many since it's not that great of a deal for ya. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sold 10 on eBay for $62USD plus $15 shipping, cost is $24.99 plus taxes CAD, anyone would jump on a 100% gain.

Getting the exo at $50CAD after taxes, sell for $75USD plus another $5 USD gain on shipping. After fees of about $8, I still gain at least $17USD, that's about a 35-40% gain. You dump in volumes. The small boys inch through individual sets would get slaughtered. When I go to USPS, I take at least $2000 worth of goods in one shot.

knarrff Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 I got this by email today, from Lego, because of an Exo order: The Exo Suit has proven to be a very popular set and we've had a lot more orders than we expected. We don't have any in stock at the moment, and we're working hard to make more. Our warehouse is expecting a new delivery around the 11th of September. Take it with the usual grain of salt...

Sent from my iPhone using Brickpicker You might as well enjoy Vancouver. I physically went to surrey and Langley TrU. Got the last 2 at Langley. The manager said there was no inventory in Richmond or Coquitlam. And I called both Lego stores and they are dry. So maybe you should stay in Vancouver and check those stores or North Vancouver.

Sent from my iPhone using Brickpicker I think you were lucky to find that many at the Richmond store. The two Surrey stores only got five delivered. If you feel like you have too many, we could meet up Sunday and I could unload a couple from you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
