Silburned Posted August 16, 2017 Posted August 16, 2017 I grabbed one as well, but if it comes in a generic box, I will be returning it. Quote
Guest TabbyBoy Posted August 16, 2017 Posted August 16, 2017 (edited) I wonder if it'll just be an address label stuck on the box? That's as "Frustration Free" (NOT) as it gets! If any of you get one that's not mint, don't be stupid, just keep it and double your money in a couple of years. I just sold mine for £200 cash! LOL - What if it's shipped ready assembled in a 1m posting tube? Edited August 16, 2017 by TabbyBoy Quote
exciter1 Posted August 16, 2017 Author Posted August 16, 2017 Amazon had one on Warehouse Deals for $98.39, so I grabbed that one. I still haven't built any of mine yet. My experience with Frustration Free is it comes in a box, just like any other delivery. https://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html/?nodeId=201222000 1 Quote

LegoBro Posted August 16, 2017 Posted August 16, 2017 I got a ship in amazon box option before checkout. I checked it...as it said might be shipped in its own packaging with a label on it. So I chose the amazon box option. Anyone else get this? Or is this a new thing for all sets? Quote

Considering I only paid £88 for it, I did OK with £112 profit (nearly $150). I only sold it as John Lewis now have the 2nd one I had on backorder ready to pick up. My aim was to build one for free and I'll not be buying more. It still beats the meagre profit that most QFLLs are making ;-) Quote
bigboy61 Posted August 17, 2017 Posted August 17, 2017 It's still available on Amazon for $119.99 l. Sigh. Amazon must have gotten a good shipment of them. Either that or the horde hasn't decended upon them yet. Quote

starwarsxpress Posted August 17, 2017 Posted August 17, 2017 (edited) my lego shop at home already delivered and it is 29R7 for what it is worth it also came in a brown lego box that was made perfectly to fit it with the norma Lego building toys logo on the outside like it would be a case pack and the box was much thicker cardboard than normal but it did not say case pack have case pack labels or Saturn on the box ..... the box inside was mint maybe they are changing boxes to better protect Lego sets Edited August 17, 2017 by starwarsxpress 1 Quote
Deanfjr Posted August 17, 2017 Posted August 17, 2017 (edited) Disney Castle did the same thing when it was released, it was in & out of stock for a month or two, this has the same feel, one more month and then everyone can get one... Edited August 17, 2017 by Deanfjr Quote
