Same. I pre-ordered a non-tf toy and it came maybe a day after release, which is pretty great considering customs.

 

Customer Appreciation week at TFSource. Decent price for MPM Barricade, although there's shipping costs on top of that.

 

I agree, i probably shouldn't have asked.   won't do it again!

 

I'll wait for the other days to see what they have in store. I have MP Grimlock from TRU and Barricade and these are okay prices, but I want something impressive like when they sold all 3 ToyWorld Coneheads for $150.00...

 

Toyhax back down to 40% off.

 

Boom. Studio Series Lockdown is 15% off @$16.99 USD on hasbrotoyshop on ebay plus free shipping for those that aren't fond of paying MSRP+ for Studio Series (like me  ) and/or having difficulty tracking one down locally.

Looks like it started in the wee hours this morning.

 

How long do their sales last? I need to check at home and confirm which toys need new labels...

 

The time it lasts is completely random. It was at 20% for a long time. I've been adding things to my cart for the past month or two just waiting for a sale. That way I didn't have to "remember" what needed labels. Once a sale happened my cart was already loaded up and ready to check out.

 

This is how I do it, too. Every time they have hit 40%-off I've bought. I tend to check multiple times throughout the day at work just out of habit now. The following dates have been when I have bought so far in 2018:
-April 3rd
-April 22nd
-May 13th
-May 30th
-June 28th
-July 20th
-August 13th

 

I hear ya & passed on that one since I got the trio on a relatively good deal on eBay just a few months prior... NEways, here's their offer for today:



... and since I picked up the quantron when it was most recently on sale, I'll pass on this day too.

 

Huh, more Quantrons? I'd have sworn they sold those out last time around.

 

They did. This is part of the reason I have negative feelings towards TFSource. It just reeks of dishonesty.

 

I think its more along the line of source has inventory set aside to promote their sales, so when this "sells out" they will still have more for the holidays. I may wait for it to be lower during black friday.

 

Also was it ever even $429? Hasn't been that price anywhere in years for sure

 

Last time Quantron went on sale, I got it and they shipped it to me at my cost without me knowing. I had added it to stack to be shipped with a bunch of other things totaling more than 150. When asked they made it seem like a favor. Yeah, no more tfsource.

 

$400 was the going rate when it first came out... that's what I paid for it and I'm still happy with my purchase, but yes the MSRP was $430.

 

So here are the discount specials for the day at TFsource. I wonder if tomorrow is the last day and Friday will be re-instating all sales from the week or if there were be different sales on Friday...




Well, I skipped on the TLK line, but picked up a few deluxe figures for $6 at Target last week, as they were clearanced at 70% off. Figured they were at least checking out at that price.
With the Legends Trypticon being identical to the Hasbro release (that had a few $75 sales on eBay, hasbrotoyshop(?), Ollie's and maybe some other places, I'm not certain what value is gained at the $160 price. Sure, better than the $230 price, but... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I'll have to check some reviews on the Three A, but personally am doubtful that anything would sway me to pick that up at that price, especially considering there's that HUUUUGE MPPPP10^10 optimus that's out (or soon to be out).
