Got 2 HH delivered today from Amazon, code: 37R4
These must have been the most recent & hopefully the last production run from Lego as the boxes were minty mint!

Mine had the same on them.

Did anyone order HH from Walmart last week? Did you get any status updates?

yes delayed

Received 2 HH from Target orders last Monday, both were 37r4. 

 

I am thinking that since so many of us have outstanding orders for both Walmart and Target, that is a sign more are hung up in transit somewhere. Either that or someone fat-fingered the qty somewhere along the way in distribution.

all 3 sets arrived yesterday from amazon.  believe it or not but the two 10228s actually slightly damaged the 10221.  the rear of 10221 has a  deep crease going from 1 side to the other about 1/2 inch from the 2 tape seals on that end. the cease is isn't too bad itself but the weight of the 10228s nearly popped both 2 seals (lifted up).  luckily, it's still sealed.

 

btw, each 10228 has a sticker attached to the bottom side containing some code with the corresponding #.

 

 

 

i just received shipping confirmation from amazon for two 10228s and one 10221 in ONE shipping box leaving Plainfield IN.

Total package weight is 32.90 lbs.

 

my prediction is the 10221 arrives beat-up and it's weight & size trashes both 10228s.  the poor 10228s never stood a chance...

^^ those are fba stickers

So if Amazon took FBA stock to fill these orders, does that mean they oversold and bought FBA merchandise to fill orders?  Or do they just intermingle FBA and Amazon stock and fill orders with whatever is easiest to get from the warehouse?

^^ those are fba stickers

 

So what does that mean? Amazon is selling other people's stock?

Yup. Either more HH is coming to Amazon or some poor FBA sellers are going to say buh bye to profit

I sell on FBA. Those aren't FBA stickers. 

It is not that uncommon for Amazon to dip into FBA stock when they over sell or for logistical reasons. Costumer gets the product at Amazon price , 3p sells at their listed price and Amazon eats the difference although they probably recoup a good chunk in fees.

That is true, but I don't think that's what happened here.

Ok, I couldnt see the pics on my email till someone pointed them out .

I retract my original statement . Those aren't fba stickers as already mentioned .

When you ship FBA you cover up the UPC codes. This is not FBA stock.

I made 2 orders on Amazon last week for a SC and a HH.  Both of my orders are scheduled to be delivered in the same shipping box (weighs 11.8 lbs) tomorrow.

I've got a 2 SSD sandwich with a SC filling coming so I'm thinking squished at least. At least Amazon will give you a $20 credit on the SC if  you complain that it is crushed.

Not necessarily.  I bought two from Amazon last year that arrived with FBA stickers on them. 

I just ordered 2 HH on Amazon... not sure if they'll ship, but here's what I did: 

 

F5 on main page until the small "X new from $Y" under the description showed $179.95. When I clicked on the "X new from" link, I chose "Prime". The top price was $179.95 and listed as from Amazon. I plunked them in my cart, received the confirmation email, and am now waiting to see what happens.

 

What do I have to lose? And if Amazon reimburses a FBA seller for the difference, seems like a win-win. When I worked at a bookstore years ago, we would buy popular books from competitors and sell them at a loss just to be sure we always had the popular stuff... crazy, but true.

(2) HH ordered from WM on 10/25 were just canceled.

mine also!

I received my SC and HH that I ordered on Amazon during last week's buy-a-thon.  The tape on the shipping box was coming off on one end and was packed only with some brown paper.  The SC has a few minor creases, however the HH surprisingly is in pretty good shape other than some shelf wear.  The date code on the SC is 12R4.  Both date codes on the HH are worn.  It's either 32R4 or 37R4.

Wouldn't those be new codes? Strange they would be worn.

I don't think 37R4 would be new (the last known run AFAIK), and worn codes are not that unusual.

Anyone get target to come through yet?
