Still a ton of these available at TRU in the Seattle area, which is weird, because stuff seems to go fast around here.

That is odd.  All of the ones around me cleared them out.

Yeah, I can't figure it out either. there are a lot of Brickpickers in the area, so either they have missed them, or we are all down on them for some reason lol. 

Today I was at our lego Shop here in germany, everything from the MF line except the HH is on clearance, so I guess it is official that it is retired.

There are 2 vcs in Frankfurt left for -30% in Case someone wants them. I skipped them because I got way to much VCS stored!

It has 'retired product' status in Australia Lego Shop at Home so i'd say you're right!

what a steal if it wasn't OOS

Drooling over that price as I just spent $103 on TRU.Wish I could find me someone to price match that.

TRU won't match lego website price?

I've tried at one TRU, and they won't.  I'm hoping to hit another one this weekend and give it a try there, too.

save time, call em and ask?

I also tried and had no luck. I think it all depends on the person you get

I also called, no cigar

You all aren't going to believe this, but I literally read this post about an hour and a half ago. I saw the advertised price on Lego.com and my eyes popped out of my head because I knew my Toys R Us had four of them. So I called them to ask if they would price match Lego.com and after some unsurity they said that they would. I didn't tell them exactly what I was looking for though. I live close to an hour away from my Toys R Us and had to be there before 9. I did Mach 3 trying to get there fast enough.

when I got there I got a cart and casually strolled over to the Lego aisle. I got every last one of their vampyre castles, (4). I then went to the cash register and told them I had talked to the manager, who said that they would price match Lego.com. She said it was me that you talk to and we will, that she just had to see the ad and asked, "How much were they?".. I said "$24.98" smiling like the cheshire cat. She said, "Well I told you we would, we have to do it."

I got 4 9468 for $109.16 with tax!

This is my first big score, as I just started investing a couple of months ago.

Pictures to come with the receipt as soon as I get home. (I'm writing this from the parking lot LOL)

Congratulations!  Without pics it didn't happen

Congrats!

Now, my big question...was the TRU near a Lego Store?

Sent from my iPad using Brickpicker

I called mine and they laughed....nice lucky score.

I'm back! Thanks guys.  That was a rush.

 

 

@Alpine. No the nearest Lego store is in the next state.

 

 

How do I post pics?

Wow

My TRU only let me get 2 this way per their PM policy. I know it also says item has to be in stock but manager looked and saw it said sold out and matched it anyway. They still have 3 left on the shelf

I asked because I've struck out locally, but I'm going to be near some TRUs that are near Lego Stores tomorrow.  So, thought I'd give it a try.

It was a young girl who was the manager, which was good.... because if it had been different they probably would have balked.

 

She said she had to see the price, I just held up my phone and showed her. Then she had that look on her face like she'd been taken.

 

I'm just glad to get them at this price. Whether or not Lego pulls a fast one and brings them back at some point, I'll still make some money.

I'm back! Thanks guys.  That was a rush.

Go to more reply options by post, and on bottom left, there is an attach file...

Here they are.

Nice score!!! You can sell one to cover the cost of all of them. Crazy high tax rate we are 0%
