No kidding. The CC companies make all this hoopla about fraud protection as if consumers had anything to worry about. Anyone can just make a purchase and call their cc company and deny the charge and get the the charge reversed. Consumers get their money back and the cc company get more money in fees. Only the merchants loose out so why would the banks care.
Chargeback cases kill me. Can we just stop the Charade and just give them the damn money plus the fee? The first few times I actually gathered data and proof that we had held up our end of the bargain. Only to get the letter… “we’ve decided in favor of the customer, eat ****”
Sanctum Sanctorum 30% off: https://www.chapters.indigo.ca/en-ca/toys/sanctum-sanctorum-76218/673419356541-item.html?ikwsec=KidsAndToys&ikwidx=59#algoliaQueryId=54d1c9ed326d7de0e3646665228f470b
Lots of other deals, 20-40%.
In Brickstore, using new parts, I find the following:
Engine: $130
Tender: $84
Diner Car: $95
HoboRide Car: $104
Tail Car: $142
It might be easier to use rebrickable to a combination of other sets that make up 80%-95% of the parts, as most of the high cost parts are from trains (wheels, windows, glass, motor, etc.)
Many stores have 30% off sets. Also, until December 21, you can get 4% in points with any purchase type, or 8% if you have a CT card. Wide range of sets are available and a couple were already below MSRP so it worked out to 45% off (based on 4% points). Yay LEGO!
Built the Forestmen GWP not from the Mexico plant and no quality control issues. My other 3 Walmart Castle Promos arrived Saturday so I guess I will breakdown and build one of them next.
