  1. My son and I were checking out some of the 2017 set pictures. He was mad when he saw the Quadjumper set. I asked why. "Dad, one of those figures is exclusive to a Lego book I bought!" I asked why is that bad. "Because now if they have another one, the value will go down!" He's 8. Never been so proud.

  3. Just got back from B&N. Went to pick up some Mazes and to stack the 25% with the 10% member discount. I politely asked the clerk if they had any more in back. While she was looking I found a single White House that I grabbed as well. She came out with four more Mazes. I paid and left the store. When I got in my car I glanced at my receipt and noticed that the White House also rang up as on sale. I wasn't expecting it to since Architecture is usually excluded. I didn't even ask when I checked out. I went back in and grabbed the two US Capitol Buildings that were on the shelf. Those rang up on sale as well. Again, I didn't ask. They automatically rang up that way. Most likely a YMMV, but you may want to try.

  6. On vacation in FL, the one B&N I hit must have been in the middle of retired people. Livi's houses, Mazes, Dolphin Cruiser, Emma's Houses, all sorts of other retired Friends, Ariel's castles Found a Scooby Lighthouse and Plane on the shelf. Checking out asked if they had anymore... they found 2 Mansions in back. They also brought out a bunch of Ecto 1 which I passed on... they were like whaaa? Got one deep sea helicopter - realize it's still in stock some places, we'll see how it does. Didnt see any architecture at all. No old Star Wars. No Elves - was hoping to find some Dragon Sanctuary... Had my six kids with me... clerks said "You guys must really like Lego." Yep...

  10. Battle On Scarif -it's a small set but a good representation of the scene. Worth the cost of it at TRU with 20% off, 20% GCs and TRUTH. I already added a sand baseplate to it to give it more space may add more if I have time to make a bigger scene with all the characters and troopers from battle packs. I got an extra 2 Shore Troopers too from a second set I bought to part out. I'm trying to decide if the parts from a second set are worth adding around to build up the size or not. I'm no master builder so I'm waiting to see if other people try to double up the size.

  12. Went to TRU and used the 20% off coupon for some clearance deals on 75096 (Sith Infiltrators)...but the best deal was using the same coupon for the NERF Star Wars First Order Blaster, (along with it being part of the buy one and get one 1/2 off deal they have going on). We are having a NERF birthday party for one of our boys. We were able to pick up a bunch for roughly $14 a piece (after coupons and magic) and will get rewards too. Should be a blast! (No pun intended).

  15. I know it's a hassle but you need to pre-calculate your purchases when applying multiple discounts before heading to the register. More often than not, the cashier will screw up the series of button presses up and miss one of the discounts... the most common one being TRUTH which they can't seem to get right. Before you pay, you can press "VIEW ITEMS" on the CC reader and double check that the prices are on the up and up before following through. Try to go when there isn't a huge line behind you or take the purchase up to the customer service desk. They usually place the more experienced employees there.

  16. Talk to them. Try and learn some more information to make a judgement call. We were all 0 feedback users once. Maybe the guy just wants the set, browsed Amazon, browsed eBay, then checked BrickLink and saw you had it at a price he liked, and decided to make an account to buy it. You could quite easily find this information out and make a judgement call on whether he's pulling your leg or not. I sell to 0 feedback buyers all the time. My logic is, if they're just starting out buying their Lego collection, and you nail down a flawless transaction on their first buy, the chances they'll be coming back to you to buy more in the future are pretty solid.

  17. Bought some Star Wars sets for personal collection. Got the rebel frigate, yoda's fighter, y-wing and new phantom for $137 after partial pay gc and truth. Roughly 43% off plus will get 8% back in Rewards.

  30. I still can get FO transporters. I was going to head there after work, and grab their last 2 if they still have them. I hate to admit, but I already have 8 of these, as I grabbed them when they were 45 at walmart last spring. I have a feeling this set does well. Plus, with there now being 2 First Order battle packs - you can easily pair these down the line with one of those battle packs for extra incentive, once all of them are retired. That way they can stock their transporter with extra stormtroopers. Basically, 6 stormtroopers, 2 flame troopers, and Phasma fit perfectly into one of these. Same with Leia's transporter. Pair it with a battle pack and you have all you need. I want to see these gone from the stores, but it might take until summer though. But already, if you use truth, you can clear 20.00 at current amazon prices.

  32. There is a difference between opening a not paid case and cancelling a transaction. In the latter, you cannot cancel transaction because of non=payment, you need to open a not paid case. Whenever you open a cancel transaction case it gets sent to the buyer, and he has the option to accept or decline the cancelling of the transaction, if i remember correctly, if they decline it gets escaleted to ebay (not had this scenario in a very long time so cant remember if this is still the case). You have the option to open a non payment case after 4 days, there is also an option you can select in ebay in the options that automatically opens a case after 4 days, and another option which closes the case automatically after 4 days. It's worth putting on those options as most of the time i usually forget and lose track.

  34. Well that explains that, then...lol. Everyone always makes the point to say that Architecture is never included in the B&N sales so I thought it was an oddity. 32% off after membership is a pretty good deal on the Capitol Building.

  36. Yeah I thought about that. Even though my friends use me for discounts all the time (what are friends for anyway...lol) this site is dedicated to people who serve our country so I don't feel right using it to make a profit. But that didn't stop me from signing lordoflego up. Feel free to PM him before they send him on a solo mission to The South China Sea.
