I am Niko Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Ecto-1 for $16 over RRP. Greedy TRU Express resellers! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Brick Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Had the nee Starwas Hotu set in my hand at 10% discount but put it back. There is absolutely nothing new about this set. Thought about quickflipping it but didn't . Needs to be 30% off or quadruple VIP points or something 24 minutes ago, I am Niko said: Ecto-1 for $16 over RRP. Greedy TRU Express resellers! Saw a bunch of these at $49 but already met my wuita so left those alone as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sfcommando14 Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Found a TRU with 2 newly priced Slave-1s and a lot of oldies, but at TRU marked up prices. Battle of the Five Armies, Pirate Ship Ambush, Dol Guldur Battle, Brick Bounty, and these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrToes16 Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 Yeah this was available today at the Lego Discovery Center store in Westchester, NY. Wasn't planning on buying it when it actually becomes available in May but I just found it interesting it was there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just curious if EV or SC were there at the same time or they put this one in one of their spots? If you were paying attention to what was there, that is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually I was just in shock over Hoth set that I wasn't paying too much attention but those didn't jump out at me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why have these not been clearanced? Seems like they like they would want to clear the old stock and turn over inventory.

Buchimuer Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 Maybe RRP is $184 at his LEGO store. The effective price of it on May 1st at LEGO Shop at Home is 179, so yes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the effective price of it on Thursdays at TRU is $141 with 20% coupon, 10% CC and 15% GC with no taxes for those that are tax exempt. And that's not including rewards dollars you'll receive for future 'effective pricing'. Edited April 23, 2016 by Loghamel 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That price, if you can get as you calculated is indeed a slick deal, good luck buying one at that price. But for me, I don't think it worth my time so I didn't bite, period.

I'm not trying to start any drama. TJJ was just pointing out that 20% off of $229 is most definitely not RRP. You're the one that brought up effective pricing. A deal is a deal. It's great to get freebies and VIP points at LEGO Shop at Home. But I can and have got them at the price quoted. In fact, I got one for just over $2 by using $200 in rewards points. I am looking to buy 2 more this Thursday at those prices as well. They won't be quite as good because I only have $179 of 15% GC left. Lastly, I also didn't put myself on LEGO's radar by buying 5 of them from LEGO Shop at Home. To each their own.

Seems like they like they would want to clear the old stock and turn over inventory. I asked, and since they are already off TRU corporate radars, it will depend on local "priced as marked" sales locally. They wouldn't work with me on it that day. I might go back next weekend and ask again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mayor Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 My 60096 came by Fed-ex this afternoon from TRU, I believe it's a sleeper as is the Boat in that series, LSH has them on sale, but at 70 years of age I'm still banned from buying from Lego. 70 years old and cant even buy a frigin toy or a bunch of toys. Walmart did have #76053 on the shelf, it's new. I did pick up a few there, left about 3. I think it's a sleeper because of batman's motorcycle. I already got 2 $50. for 2 Ant Man, it could reach close to $100 at Christmas time. Personally I wish I could sell all but a few of my Lego sets and 56+ bins of used loose ones. I'm beginning to loose interest in Lego and it's greedy owner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donbee Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 I've passed up on the elf army at TRU as well. Keep thinking about it though. Seems like it could be solid in a few years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
