Sfcommando14 Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 Yep. I had already been a map geek since I was little. I was in college when Animaniacs was out and that but helped cement my desire to get into cartography. Just saw this live a few weeks ago! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

odysea11 Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 Out of curiosity....did anyone see a significant uptick in sales over the last 36 hours? With all of the extra traffic on Amazon, I would have expected a small increase in sales....but no. I didn't experience an increase, but I am small fry.....

justapilgrim Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 How did you get these discounts? Did you talk to them about the extra 10-20% for prime members?yes. Lego was supposed to be 20%, also another promo was 10% for Prime members. neither were put back in after the glitch. if you noticed all Lego had the blue Prime Deal tags on them but didn't have any discount in cart 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also managed to have CS give me the 30% discount off the Assembly square. I know it is nothing like what we missed out on, but I will take it...!! I have been wanting this set for my collection and I decided to try CS to get the discount ...........and Wham-O.....They gladly gave it to me ! Took $83.98 off the price =) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil B Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 I'm not sure how that math works, but that is a great deal!Simple math: 30% of (170+250) = 126, which is the discount uoted in the email. So jap is paying 420-126 = 294 for 2 sets (plus tax) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So jap is paying 420-126 = 294 for 2 sets (plus tax) I read that as the total amount owed, not the discount. I was trying to figure out how both sets came to $126.

What I meant is consecutive discounts don't specify which amount to apply the discount to and this case they applied it to the original amount (which I agree is strange). Straight up multiplying the discounts is the norm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerEyez Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 First package arrived. Had a Death Star with a minor ding in one corner and the Porsche was still in the Lego shipping box, minty as could be. Happy as a clam. Going to be very difficult to convince myself to self the DS, I want all the figs and I love to do big builds. The Amazon box was 26x21x16 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
