Lego Cargo Train 7939 Alternate Deal

For those that wanted the Lego 7939 and couldn't get in the deal -- Its pretty shameful for Lego to even use this item as the Black Friday sale item knowing well that its extremely low stock Call and first ask for the Lego 7939. They'll give you a sorry its out of stock and not orderable or its orde...

Re: LEGO KIT KAT Set #27325

Wouldn't it be a neat to have a play on the "golden" ticket and put say 3 of these in for a prize of $100,000? It would be a nice marketing gimmick that would basically self promote itself and cost a lot less then a tv air time.

Re: Amazon USA LEGO Black Friday Lightning Deals

Good luck competing with sniper bot software. I had one written 2 years ago for lightning reflex click typing verification deal. It was a very high success rate.

Re: LEGO Stores & LEGO Shop Black Friday 2013 Sales

I thought resellers meant target, Walmart, toys r us. It's a crappy sale still. I was hoping to be able to get more for my money for being patient. I have spent thousands on Lego so I do look forward to these sale to get more. I think this is poor marketing

Re: LEGO Stores & LEGO Shop Black Friday 2013 Sales

I am very disappointed. Lousy sale. Even the triple points last week was nothing stellar. I wonder if their marketing sales dept read these forums to learn upsetting your hardcore fan base is very bad for the long run. My kids are not going to TLG shop this year.

Re: LEGO Black Friday 2013 VIP Early Access (USA & Canada)

I bought the MKII 42009 crane at regular price. Sales does not look too good. I'm getting $60 back plus another $10.95 (5%) using a fatwallet cashback plus another ($2) 1% from credit card. So about ~$146 for this. But I have to now spend that $60 on another set and shell probably more out of pocket...

I stopped shopping at Toys R Us for everything since I found out about their price shenanigan. I hope they get sued like KB Toys did for having these "fake" sales all the time.

A bonus specific to the ev3 instead of a general promotion would have been nicer

Re: LEGO Shop September 2013 Offers & New Products

I'm disappointed that there were no pre-order (and a bonus item) promo on the EV3. Now that it's out, there's no promo either on it. I guess they assume its going to be a hot seller but I'll wait until a sale comes around to pick up the EV3.

Re: Lego Duds

I'm going to throw in a surprise and I know many will disagree with me, but I say the modular sets, Emporium, Fire Brigade, and ESPECIALLY the TOWER BRIDGE will be dud for resells. They will be dud not because of lack of interest but simply from OVER SUPPLY. If you notice every time they go on sale ...

Re: Maersk Train $105 shipped at TRU.com

I don't know about being rarely on sale as I have seen it plenty of time discounted. Too bad you have to buy all components separately to motorize it. I would buy another train set to get the extra tracks and motor for this train.

Re: Investing Thoughts

Investing in lego takes the fun out of the hobby. If you have kids, imagine the joy of getting a new set .... when there's about 100 sets sitting at home. There's no novelty in the toy anymore. You can keep it out of sight but still, your life will be surrounded by lego. Good luck keeping them separ...
