Regarding the TIEs at Sainsbury's:

Dear Customer

We're sorry to tell you that your recent order has been cancelled.  The star wars item you ordered was incorrectly listed on our site, this was a genuine error on our part.

Please note that no payment has been taken for this order.

Kind Regards

Customer Service Team

Finally had my cancellation mail through, which I thought was oddly terse seeing as though I was a new customer. Doesn't give any explanation, or even include details of the order number - just says it's been cancelled.

In fact, as soon as I posted that, I had a second email that was a bit more apologetic and explainy.

In other news. Not really a deal as they're charging above RRP for it, but as of about 4 minutes ago Tumblers are back onsale at Smyth's for home delivery. 1 per customer, unfortunately.

The buy button is greyed out. But it's looked like that for ages.

Did you manage to get one?

Yep - got one. They were available for about 12 minutes!

Looks like they're drip-dripping the stock they have. Wonder if that price might creep up still further in the coming days.

Yeah I managed to order 1, went to get another on a second account and they had gone.

Just interested to hear others opinions on this but does anyone think these drip fed tumblers are going to anyone but resellers?

I´d say most of them have been going to resellers since the retiring soon tag came out at SAH.

There's a thread for Tumbler talk, this is the thread where people share their knowledge of deals, so that other people can do no work and pick up the same deals.

The Darkseid Invasion 76028 is still £39.99 on Amazon UK. I'm seeing a lot of reasons to stock up on this set, but the lack of chatter on here regarding it worries me slightly.

Retired according to Lego UK, sold out on the US site, rumours of Darkseid's involvement in at least two upcoming Marvel films. What am I missing?

LEGO Shop at Home: Brick Bounty, MTT, Darkseid invasion and a bunch of others (all on 50%) went to status 'out of stock, expected to ship 9 februari'. 

Ordered a few, fingers crossed

Brick Bounty and Darkseid Invasion now both OOS and full price. They vanished before my very eyes as I was adding to cart!

Its been heavily reduced multiple time and retailers still cant shift their stock, HUKD hasn't even cleared it.

6 new sets sold this year on ebay, the demand for this set really does not seem to there. Yes interest might increase after the new Justice League film, but at the moment its a stinker.

Plus superheroes.

they went really fast  Managed to get two before it was away. 

The Brick bounty flew out of my cart while ordering.....

Yes, I managed to grab one MTT too, before it went back to SOLD OUT status again.  

I'm a HAPPY CAMPER here! 

(((Provided the order gets fulfilled by Lego Shop at Home of course)))

Good to see Lego´s new Euroreseller eliminator software is up and running. Fastest fingers can expect a banhammer mail soon.

you think they ban somebody for buying some discounted stuffß? (like 1 mtt?)

I think they will have a fair idea that whoever is alert to these limited deals or glitches are pros. Run the data on a couple of occasions it has happened and the same users will keep popping up. Mind you, they are pretty duff sets to invest in even at 50% off.

sounds reasonable.ive recently scanned the lego sah bans thread and some bans seemd odd (nobody mentioned buying these 50%off deals (at least in the "normal" amount), but it seems like lego is applying some strict filters.

I wouldn't call MTT or Brick Bounty duff buys at 50%.

Indeed, sold a mtt last week for 135 euro, bought at rrp 109,99.

brinklink value on 70413 is $183. 
You think buying in at $58 for a $183 part value is duff?  Seriously.
