Kudos to amazon - received my 2 death stars today and was worried.

One big box which looked beat up and not filled so caved in a bit.

 

Opened it and they put left both deathstars sealed in their Lego case boxes, together into one box.

Pristine condition.

I too have had good luck with Amazon with getting DS - mine was also shipped with the original Lego box inside another shipping box.

Just received a Pet Shop from Amazon and it was their best packing job to date--plenty of brown paper to provide a nice cushion and minty fresh Pet Shop. Maybe they're listening to all that packaging feedback?

Has anyone received a Death Star from Wal-Mart? How did that ship?

With a label slapped on the side, looking as if a tractor had run over it.

Oct. 9 Town Hall (1x) from Lego LEGO Shop at Home cancelled this morning... high demand, etc.

Received my 2 Town Halls from Walmart via FedEx in the lego shipping box.  Ordered on Oct. 2. A hole in one side of the shipping box put a hole in the side of 1 Town Hall.  Not a perfect shipping experience, but better than I hoped for from WM.

TH from last Target stock should arrive this afternoon.

Oct. 9 Town Hall (1x) from Lego S@H cancelled this morning... high demand, etc.

I never received a cancellation for my HH.  It is still in Customer Service, I'm sure they're trying real hard to find me one.

is this first known cancellation of TH at LEGO Shop at Home? shocking..

"The demand for the item(s) listed below have exceeded our expectations and the item(s) are no longer available. We regret to inform you that the order for these item(s) has been cancelled from your order #Y77..........."

 

... via email, of course - figured it was standard procedure in general so didn't elaborate at first, sorry.

first one I've seen.

If that's not The Sign, i don't know what is... Unless it was mistake on CS account.  

Have we seen cases when something in the order was cancelled, and not by mistake, and later show up as "available now"? Excluding extremes such as VH/BZ/AS ? Heck, they even did not cancel people's RI backorders for two plus months...

Hmm.... hi-fives all around? I will only have 4 ... but maybe they will find a pallet at TRU, like they did with SSDs (though perhaps they used delorean time machines to get those...)
