Thanks all...

Thats the information I found but they differ...  Brickset review says seventeen bags but the unboxing video had only sixteen.  Mine has sixteen plus 2 plus plate.  Was hoping someone had something diffinitive.

French store FNAC have stocked new 30 EV, seems not ready to gone...

Does anyone recall this set ever going on sale or discount during it's life span?

Yes. Amazon.com had it at $200 twice or so.

I could go for some of that action sooner than later.

For a used / open box set yes, not at new retail.

Awesome. Rare for a set like this to go on any type of sale. According to Camel (which I understand is not the authority of amazon) it hasn't. I have never seen it happen for a UCS / Modular set.

Clearly I am wrong and I humbly beg forgiveness ...

As a side note, when did Lego stop allowing discounts for their UCS and modular sets ...? If I go back, I can see a few sets that went on sale in that time frame, but not since then ... am I wrong about that one too? This obviously wouldn't count coupons or other types of sales  ...

July 1st 2013. Interesting thread here about it http://bricksetforum.com/discussion/6868/discounts-on-lego-exclusives

The discounted 10236 was likely a mistake.

Had spme nice discounts on it several times. 200€ was available some times

Amazon offered it for $200 after the $50 promo. The discount was reflected in carts. Many on Brickpicker bought it around Nov 8, 2014 like I did

Anyone received one from LEGO Shop at Home recently? I doubt we'll see R6 seals, but just curious.

For those in the UK it's back instock at Lego Shop.

Saw about 6 of these on the shelf at Lego Store Mall of America on Tuesday.  Been a while since I'd seen one on the shelf.  I should have looked at seal codes but did not.

Palace cinema and Helicarrier are interesting...

To comprehend the seal codes: first two digits are the week? And last digit 5 for 2015 and 6 for 2016? What does the third stand for?

Manufacturing facility

"46" = Week of Production
"S" = Production Plant
"5" = Year of Production

H = Nyíregyháza, Hungary
R = Ciénega de Flores, Mexico
S = Kladno, Czech Republic
Q = Purkersdorf, Austria
 

"B", "T" and "O" also exist in Codes. No clue what factories they relate to.

A little of topic,  and it was over ten years ago so the relevance now is non existent, but the UCS sets, they used to go on sale for 50 percent off at times.  I had massive orders of UCS items back then.

I bought 30 snowspeeders in orders of 5 during this sale.

The good ole days....
