Would that be like the Target symbol with bullet holes in it?

My DS shipped from Shop.

My MM from TGT shipped.  I only got 30 3 though, which I'm guessing is much lower than some of you evil resellers.

I've had 2 Mirkwood Elf Armies shipped to me recently from LEGO Shop at Home (cashed in a few VIP and got em ~20% off). When they arrived, the outer shipping box was more or less mint, no apparent crushing or anything. Open it up, pull out my 2 sets, quick inspection appears like 2 mint sets. Then I double checked seals; one seal on one of the two sets has been popped; but it looks like it was popped a long long time ago. The glue on the backside of the seal is covered in dust and 'warehouse' grime, which implies it had popped before it was picked and shipped. Is this at all usual for TLG?? Every single other order I've placed with them has been perfect condition.

Ultimately it's no big deal, as I think my end goal for these is parting out which means opening the set anyway. However, if it's not very common, I'm wondering if I should try and complain for a few bonus VIP points or something? Would any of you bother, or just suck it up given my end goal?

Let it go, save your karma for when you have a problem you really need them to fix. My two mystery machines shipped from Kmart. Assuming they really are mystery machines. Edit: paragraph breaks would be so nice...

Aye, I was leaning the same way... Probably safer to save my karma card for a 2x VIP period or something in case some order goes sideways during that (when it matters a bit more). 

I had one Scooby plane cancelled by Target yesterday, and this morning I got an email from Target about a delay in the shipping of my 3 Mystery Machines until 8/21 - 9/9.

So my two target orders are now delayed till late August early September. 6 sets total. :(

Got the Target delay email as well. Just for 2 sets.

Any one able to pick up their scooby legos via 'walmart pick up' the last day or so?  I have 2 orders just processing and past their available at times.

WM just cancelled my in store pick up MMs

Just got the quinjet set from amazon.  Looks like someone drop kicked the box.  I can't remember the last time I have received a set that hasn't come damaged.

Ended up going with a 20% partial refund.  I didn't have any boxes to ship the set back and they didn't have any replacements either.  Figured that was my best option.

KMart erred in my favor.  After Target cancelled my Scooby plane, I went looking for another source.  I had $10 in SYW rewards and there was a coupon for $10 in SYW rewards for spending $50.  So I decided to order 3 planes and use SYW points to get it down to $50 exactly and replenish my $10.  Today the box arrived, in perfect shape, and there were 7 sets in ther, not just the 3 I ordered.  The packing slip says quantity 7, but the cost shown is for 3. No idea what happened, but not going to question it.  It makes up for all the pancakes I've had delivered from them.  

I'll likely give a couple (or equivalent sets if these end up being at all scarce) to toys for tots this fall so I dont abuse the good karma :)

I'm waiting for two squished MMs from Kmart. I'll report on condition and hope I'm wrong, but the UPS details list 1.3 pounds and 2 packages. Sounds like Tyvek envelopes and Shaggy pancakes. 

That last part doesn't sound appetizing at all.

I received my MMs and Planes from KMart in various levels of distress, but not too bad.  They actually shipped my MMs in the LEGO factory container, 4 per box.

I received 4 x Mystery Machines today from K-Mart. Silly as it sounds from K-Mart, but the packaging was 10/10. Absolutely perfect. A bit odd, but they all came in their own individual box.

My delayed Mystery Machines from Target just shipped, well ahead of schedule.

2x DS from AMZ shipped together.  Package weight is 40 lbs.  Slightly terrified at how it will show up.

Amazon shipped a pair of mine in original cartons protected with a larger shipping box. Hopeful they treat you the same :-)

Good to know...thanks for the glimmer of hope

My first LEGO purchase was a bust. I went to Walmart today to pick up my 2 PCs and a Ecto-1 that I ordered online. The PCs were in a Lego box but both were damaged. One was ripped on the side and had loose tape (maybe a return), both were also damaged from other boxes crushing it. I ended up returning them on the spot which turned out to be a hassle as the lady had to try 4x to issue the refund. The Ecto was perfect so at least I got that.

I ended up ordering a Death Star at Target today so I'll report on that once I receive it.

 

 

Got my two DS in one box from AMZ.  No double boxing, unfortunately (those original cartons would have really come in handy), but at least they were in pretty good shape.  Couldn't read any codes...guess they rubbed off on all the seals.

My 2 Pet Shops I ordered Thursday from Amazon shipped today.

The first two shipments of City Spaceports arrived in great condition from Amazon.uk.  I also finished out my Series 14 Simpson's minifigs. I didn't feel like smooshing this series, so I just bought them off EBay here in there for about $4 each.
