October 24, 201411 yr Hi guys, Just spot a 50% off deal at Sears, see here: http://www.sears.ca/product/lego-creator-highway-pickup-set/616-000053108-4654041. For this Creator set although it has been retired but there seems no much investment potential, I think it could still be a perfect gift! I bought this thing last year for my son's birthday at 20% off, and it is quite good. Personally I have grabbed extra 4 more for the Xmas season. Good luck!
October 24, 201411 yr Not bad for a retired set for a gift. FYI, RRP for this set is $80, so the $50 price is not 50% off of RRP.
October 24, 201411 yr Well, these 50% off aren't. Retail is/was $80l Think he just forgot to put "Canada" or .ca in the title Retail up here for this set is $99.
October 24, 201411 yr Author Yes, forgot to mention this is a Canada deal, sorry for you American guys who has feed up with great Lego deals~~~
October 24, 201411 yr FAO was giving this set out for free with $200 exclusives last year so I got a few xwings. Flipped most of them around $70 (the trucks not the xwings) but I gave my 7 year old nephew one for xmas and he loved it. I helped him build it, good times. Hope FAO has a similar deal this year.

October 24, 201411 yr Use coupon code 941 612 780 for an extra $10 any order over $25. Weird, if you use the coupon code for saving $10.oo they charge you an additional $3.95 for ship to store, so really it's a $6.05 coupon code. (Ship to store is usually free when no coupons are applied)
October 24, 201411 yr Shame it isn`t a popular set, I definitely could not recommend this for investment, even at 50%. Good luck finding a buyer. To build though it`s a good deal for anyone interested, don`t personally own this one yet so may go ahead and order one just because of the deal. Haven`t decided yet haha.
October 24, 201411 yr Have one sealed that I bought last year for 20% off. Still haven't got around to building it...
October 24, 201411 yr Yeah the going prices for sealed sets sold on eBay wouldn't net anyone a decent profit if you hoarded some from SEARS right now. Too bad.
October 30, 201411 yr Author The day before yesterday I got my shipment of all 4 7347 from Sears.ca, and I'm very glad they arrived in one piece, because Sears.ca wrapped and shipped them just like clothes: put each one of them in a thin plastic bag and then send for shippingl! No carton box, no air bag and even no any stuffing materials. Maybe some other guys had experienced this but for me, it really scary.

Sears doesn't seem to pack their stuff, just puts them in plastic bags and slaps a massive label on the front of the box Usually recommend shipping to store to limit the potential for damaged items. I've had a Rancor Pit and Falcon arrive from them in abysmal condition before.

October 30, 201411 yr Author I bought two of these at Ross about 8 months ago..... 35.00 each... Hi buddy, but we are in Canada....
October 31, 201411 yr I ordered one of these for pickup at my local Sears delivery outlet, and it arrived without any bag or box, with the shipping label stuck right to the box!
October 31, 201411 yr I ordered one of these for pickup at my local Sears delivery outlet, and it arrived without any bag or box, with the shipping label stuck right to the box! I've found the labels peel off the boxes reasonably well. I had to remove labels from 10 Olivia's Treehouse and only one box had any sticky residue, so I was surprised/pleased.
October 31, 201411 yr Thanks! I just checked, and you're right! They come off easily like post it notes. I'm planning to give this set as a gift and didn't really want the price and other info plastered all over it.
