Weird looking and doesn’t appear to have any of the security detection stuff built in to like the B&N stickers.

If this is regarding the gift card deal, that is still working ... just bought one 10 minutes ago for $127.50

Walmart clearance order arrived from store with a new to me sticker on the box.

Sold Out.

Another channel mixing LEGO with Dungeons & Dragons called Critical Brick. Additionally, here is the legodnd reddit he mentions from time to time.

Out of the blue, the buyer started sending multiple messages to me just after midnight. Sending messages like I haven't received my package yet, what do I do?, can you send it to a different address. Send it to another address request seems suspicious. Whole situation seems fishy to me so far especially because a simple google search shows "buyer/ship to name" lives on other side of the country from where this is being shipped (but maybe they moved recently?). Not much I can do at this point. I had placed a USPS service request earlier this week which the local USPS responded to saying they will do some investigation and get back to me. Still waiting for them to get back with me.

Today is the last day for the Italian Market Van GWP (...which also currently stacks with the Up-Scaled Baby Astronaut GWP).

There are a few more sets https://www.walmart.com/search?q=Lego&facet=special_offers%3AClearance||brand%3ALEGO&sort=price_low $100 off https://www.walmart.com/ip/LEGO-Technic-Audi-RS-Q-e-tron-42160-Advanced-Building-Kit-Kids-Ages-10-Up-Remote-Controlled-Car-Toy-Features-App-Controlled-Steering-Makes-Great-Gift/2379133844?classType=REGULAR&athbdg=L1400&from=/search

More hypotheticals: They knew they were going on vacation, asked for expedited shipping in the hopes it would arrive before they left. It didn't arrive in time, they are now gone on vacation and not checking their mail. You will hear from them again once they return, and the package will show as delivered. With a little luck they will file a return request because "it didn't arrive on time", or they just chalk it up to "too bad, we tried".

Placed a few small orders, we'll see.

Yeah good question. I'm not sure. It's odd they requested expedited shipping in the notes of placing their order, but then have totally ghosted me. I opened a service request with USPS on Monday, received an email from the post office for the city it is being delivered to saying they are investigating and will let me know what they find. It's still sitting in the same Awaiting Delivery status. Just haven't encountered this one before.

Going fast because a lot posted on SD right now. Only one I can find still in stock ($100 off): https://www.walmart.com/ip/LEGO-Star-Wars-The-Dark-Falcon-Building-Set-Star-Wars-Toy-with-8-Minifigures-Birthday-Gift-for-Kids-75389/5298070748?classType=REGULAR&athbdg=L1102&from=/search

Is it possible your customer has a Vacation Hold on their address? I do this when I travel. Packages delivered by USPS get a similar status on my end until the mail gets delivered once I return.

A news segment not rehashing the "LEGO is better than gold!" tripe.

Probably just trying to get feedback to open a store. Setting a $5-$8 minimal order will end such Tom Foolery.

Overnight had a bricklink buyer buy a single $0.01 piece, shipped it out earlier today. Same dude just bought 2 more of the same piece. Is there some scam I’m missing here? Dude just trying to gain reviews, PayPal history?

I will say the art on the side of the box here is absolutely f**king awesome. Seriously, damn. Frame that and put it on the wall.

Back for $150

Bricking Up Brad is a huge Castle fan with retrospectives and custom fig segments good for inspiration.

A lot of youtubers are slamming this set. I get the dissatisfaction, but I think some folks are overreacting. Even M&R made quite a lot of positive comments and observations. Personally, I do like the set...something I could actually display vice a huge 3D grey Lego ball we supposedly all wanted. I just wish the price was $850, to take over the MILF spot before fading into retirement. GWP rumor is a TIE Fighter with a couple of minifigs...don't think that we be enough for people to line up on release day.
