You are missing the fact this thread is the most often looked at, and many would miss the pre-order if not for this. (I would have). Now, if the pre-order is up for the next two weeks, then you would be right.

We don't know. We just found out it existed apparently. It's potentially a deal if that makes you feel better.

It's potentially a deal if that makes you feel better. Just trying to make a point, this is a "deals' thread. If you're interested in "new" sets or "pre-order" then subscribe to that type of thread. Good deals have been limited recently and when I see a plethora of emails about a potential "deal" in my inbox, it normally indicates a really good deal but only to find out that it's not really a "deal", I think I can be rightfully disappointed. Is it a cool set, Yes, will I get it eventually when it's part of a GWP or some other discount , Yes, will I pre-order it at RRP, No. And yes, I recognize that I'm adding to the "click bait" but when in Rome... with that I'm done on the topic. Move on with your normal lives folks. P.S. For those interested, it's still available at SAH for pre-order... there's my contribution to this new "deal" Edited February 11, 20223 yr by LegoTriathlete

To me broader point of "deal" is better price of a widely available set or any availability of a hard to find or possibly limited time available set. Its all the same really.

We cover many types of deals on this thread. People should be able to see the posts and judge if those are deals based on their standards and or needs

The posts on GB and the others at RRP were sets close to retirement so I can understand those.

February 11, 20223 yr New deal everyone! I just found the motherlode! SAH has two OTHER Jurassic sets for pre-order that were not yet mentioned @ the low price of RRP: Pyroraptor & Dilophosaurus Transport (set 76951) and Triceratops Pickup Truck Ambush (set 76950). Get them before they sell out!!!

A new set that becomes sold out/backordered, is worth having (especially at a deal price), as people will happily pay a healthy premium to get it now, as opposed to having to wait.

Yes, I’m like a dog with a frisbee… plus I have some extra free time today to 🔥 Sorry I posted the picture in this thread and disturbed your day. It was a “deal” for me as it is zero risk with possible reward. Since it is a Target exclusive it should work well on Amazon and eBay GSP. I don’t expect it to sell out immediately and possibly not even in 24 hours since nobody knew about it. Some of us by retired sets at MSRP or above and consider it a deal. A deal does not always equal savings.

Just because it is new, does not mean LEGO can keep the set in stock the first few months of release.
February 11, 20223 yr Also available for preorder, multiple Vorys letters. Free shipping, too. Happy flipping! [emoji51]Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ok, I'm done now... Thanks for the heads up! My son's name is Logan, and he collects everything Wolverine. This is a literal day one purchase for us, and getting it shipped out as soon as it's available is fantastic. And since it's a $10 set, I don't sweat the RRP cost. Not worth it to wait out for a 20% (or more) discount to save $2.
February 11, 20223 yr in the spirit of MSRP deals .... vaders castle in FF Boxing MSRP https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07J6F8H3M/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1

Who the F are you? You've been on BP for a year. These other dudes have been on here for 10. They know what they're doing when they post here. Listen and learn, my friend...
February 11, 20223 yr 20+ notifications and emails of BS back and forth kills the deal thread. "who the F are you" or the 10 years experience for being a member on here.... seriously? No, he has a voice as much as everyone else on here does and he doesnt have to listen and learn from anyone regardless of tenure. With the daily deals not being updated anymore, this specific. thread has lost its purpose.

They know what they're doing when they post here. Listen and learn, my friend... Chill, chill, it's all in in good fun and just expressing opinions. No need to go vulgar here, unless it's creatively done like some people do which I personally appreciate and enjoy reading, whether I'm the target off or not. Example: "Pedantic tools"... genius! Now, back to the deals, not sure if this has been posted yet so apologies for the redundancy if yes, but Honey is still having their 15% rebate on certain Friends and City sets at SAH. YMMV
February 11, 20223 yr Imagine bypassing the deals you dislike, or dont think are a deal, and moving on with your life without complaining to the internet about it.
