I'm sure a  buyer would know , but posting how much you paid for a set vs selling price is a turn off point imo

That's actually a really good point.  He even used VIP points on it.

Yikes.  That escalated quickly

I was thinking the same thing. Why would you leave the store like that?

That video I saw here from the box/wheel company says the adhesive is removeable (and re-useable IIRC)... still, would not want them to do that to my box.

Went out for a few hours so forgive me if it has been posted before. Hoth Bricks review is up and there is indeed some inside packaging drama similar to the Porsche.

This video is kinda hilarious.  Glad I did online even if it completely sucked.

Also, I figured out where a large portion of the $800 went to: the fancy BOXES!  What. On. Earth.

 

I've been to that store in D.C. before.

First world problems, from the London event.

"It is a bit annoying that they didn't actually bother to match up the number of the card with the set/queue number you got. For example, I was set 93/150, but I received card 113800017.

If anyone happens to have 113800093, would you be willing to trade, to satisfy my OCD? :)"

As I said before, Arkham Asylum is where these valued customers should be.

Hey everyone, been so helpful reading these pages the last few weeks and finding this site. I wanted to let you know about my great experience with Lego b/m store this morning. First I got there at 430 a.m and found I was 3rd in line. Sweet. The store in Michigan I have, posted on their door that they had 12 units. That's more than mall of America got. When the store manager arrived he told everyone after number 12 that they would not be able to get one. The manager then started coming out about every 20 minutes or so and handing out old poly bags. I got Han Solo on hoth, Kyle rens command shuttle, first order star destroyer as well as 2 hard posters of the falcon. Also they only had wheels for 9 of the 12 units. So I was lucky to get wheels. I'm soooooo glad I got there so early. One guy drove 2 1/2 hours and was number 14'in line. He stayed hoping someone's c.c wouldn't work. Thanks again for all the reading material, I've changed my outlook a little on investing. I have more articles to read on the site here and anticipate being around for a while.   

 

On on a side note I can't begin building because I'm in the middle of moving and new construction. It's going to be a month or better.

MF UCS in my order now says "Waiting for new stock" instead of "In process" ?

That's cool, glad you got some freebies for all that wait!

I am surprised no one has tried to bribe mall security/sicarios/hell´s angels into getting rid of one of the lucky few in front of them in the queue.

My haul from last night at LS!
