Got my Tie from Amazon today, even though the tracker on the Amazon website says it is still being processed.  Shipping container was badly damaged and so was the Tie box.  Creased, dented, and with a two inch hole in one corner.  Talking to Amazon support right now.

Tell them I said "Hi".

Only if I want them to send my replacement box in the shredder!!!

Since the system says the box hasn't even left their warehouse yet, they can't do anything about it.  Developing....

Same here. Mine shipped along with a box of Charmin x24. The box was pretty badly crushed.

Only got offered a replacement, which is fine. 20% off would've been better, but can't complain.

Tie Fighter.  Amazon 34R5.  Was so excited to see it arrive by itself in a huge box with no damage to shipping box.  Open top and LOTS of nice paper packing.  Look inside and Front appears mint.  Pull it out to discover creases all over the back and a 2 inch slit on the bottom edge.  Lots of shelf wear, a brickpicker return, or both.  Seals intact.  Amazon Customer Service is great though.

I ordered two for site to store on the sale last week.  (I wasn't going to be around so figured they would hold it for a couple days)  Just picked up my one and it was the horror story of shipping label just slapped on the set.  So needless to say the box is in bad condition.  The other one?  Department manager had no idea what happened to it.  Probably ended up walking off with someone else since they probably stacked one on top of the other, labeled one and shipped both.  Was refunded for that set.  Hopefully Amazon order shows up in a minty box.

1 amazon tie some slight creasing on box, delivered by ups.

2 walmart ties in seperate boxes came in mint condition, no idea how that happened luck of the draw i guess. Was delivered by usps

Same here - in addition, appears the box was opened and then re-sealed. Is that normal for Amazon?

 

Mine came exactly like yours. On one side, the seals were diagonal. The box looks ok...if they opened it, what were they looking for? Is the minifig that unique/desired? What are you going to do? I was going to open it tonight "to check" but I know that just means that I'm going to build it and get yelled at by the wifey for building another set instead of selling =)

Is it possible to get all of the order status updates and box condition ramblings moved to the appropriate threads? 

Then try as a community to avoid posting said things here.

Thanks!

1 Tie from Amazon arrived minty fresh with a lot of brown papers around it . 

Seal code : 27R5

2 WM - 1 mint and 1 small crease 23R5
1 Amazon small crease 43R5

Lego has resealed so many sets that there's no way to have a list or anything but just know there's dozens and dozens of sets that have been resealed. I would guess that there was a bad bag or the like. You could weigh it to verify...

Got my walmart Tie in today.  Came in a huge box with lots of air pillows.  One small dent/crease on the front but other than that pretty good shape. I will take it

Between my Amazon and Wal-Mart Tie Fighters I had 23R5 and 40R5 seal codes.  All were in good shape.  My Brick Bank, not so much.

I've never had bad shipments from Walmart. 4 tie's, all crappy. Seals busted, major creases.

Same here - still poor condition. Luck of the draw I suppose.

Just thought I'd report that all 3 of the TRU Gift Cards I received from the 3rd Party fulfilling the Staples orders had $0 balances, or are invalid cards.

Is anyone else still stuck in "Processing" for their 7/7 Walmart Tie orders?

Not here, sorry (picked mine up somewhere around 7/11). Sounds like you should contact Customer Service.

Anyone else received their Walmart TIEs? Mine have been sitting at "Processing" for at least the past 7 days.

The best place to keep track of this is in the "My Order Status" thread.  I received my store pick-up Ties and there are several other updates in there, including a recent cancellation.

Received mine last Wednesday, but ordered using Site-To-Store, not direct delivery to the house.

Both of my Amazon UCS TIEs and most of my Walmart TIEs have arrived (maybe one still out there somewhere?) ... like a lot of folks, box condition varies.  Many have reported loose seals, retaped seals, etc.  I have also seen this on one of my boxes... (a 23R5 from Walmart) ... seals nice and tight on one end of the box, and quite loose, almost falling off the other end.  I'm going to open that one to check the contents, but I think most of these situations are just old stock... been in a hot warehouse for a long time... seals come loose.
