    Pulse 20% works on preorders and masterpieces. I just pre-ordered all of the available WFC and SS figures, along with MPM Jazz that is in stock. Discount applied to every one, so a $480 bill became $384 (before taxes). And they don't charge for preorders until it's in stock if I remember correctly? Considering how difficult it can be to find some of these figures at all, and especially at a discount, this seemed like a good deal to me.

    Still waiting on Omega Supreme... probably won't see any 40-50% off until after Xmas, though.

    And don't forget that CYBER MONDAY is coming... :eek:  We might get some interesting deals.

    (Now to decide what to buy from the current BF deals... :lol )

    How does it work if Pulse premium expires before some preorders ship? I assume they won't charge you for shipping or anything but anyone know?

    Man, Chosen Prime's deals are a joke this year. They're mostly, like, $2 off this, $1 off that.

    Too bad. At $12 a pop I would have grabbed a couple of Refraktor/Reflectors. Oh well. More money to put toward something else.

    There was a guy who used to run a site who was a forum member here, I didn't know he was here. Like maybe 8 years ago, his site was $.60 off some items and $1 off. I posted on the BF thread, what kind of deal was that? And the guy went off like a mad man with road rage. Think he was one of the sponsors. Just be careful criticizing those pennies off.

    I would suggest contacting Hasbro directly.

    What I can say is that I used a time limited coupon that expired before Ectotron was released to preorder Ectotron and was not charged extra when it shipped so I suspect that they will only charge for the exact amount of your preauthorization, meaning that if you qualified for free shipping when you ordered, you will be charged only what your preauthorization charge was for even if it used discounts that were no longer eligible at the time of shipping.

    The exception might be if sales tax changed between order date and shipping date, as they might legally have to collect the difference.

    Would be nice, but eBay doesn't do coupons on BF. I don't think they do it on Cyber Monday either. They promote sellers who offer discounts on certain products.

    If looking for TF deals on eBay, you're better off going to direct websites. Like this one: bababobo00712 toy store

    I thought of one other thing:

    Even if your Pulse Premium DID expire and they DID recalculate shipping, keep in mind shipping is ALREADY free for orders over $50 for non-Premium members. So if you’re concerned about an order shipping after your Premium expires, remember that it only applies to orders under $50 and would be a $6.99 charge for smart post.

    Part of why Premium may not be worth paying for.

    Not quite Small Business Saturday but made an early purchase. Some nice deals there on things I rarely see so I made a nice order. They are TF fans and good people too.

    Utter garbage, really. When even Megalopolis beats them (and it's still up in the air as to whether or not people will actually get their stuff from them, to be fair) it's a sad state of affairs.

    Heck. Even Pulse did better. 10-20% off? Free figures in those two sets? That's a good deal better by comparison.

    I'm not asking the stores to go broke, but it's one day to one weekend a year. If they can't compete during the busiest shopping day of the year and get some real sales going, then money's definitely an issue for them and the writing's on the wall.

    A3U was the absolute worst, though. Daaaaang.

    OptimusFan first posted that deal (with links to Walmart AND Amazon). Since Amazon was sold out of 4K (and still is), I thought I'd post the Best Buy links.

    Though, in all honesty, I can't bring myself to pay even $4 for the Bumblebee DVD copy! :eek:  I know it's supposed to be better than a Bay movie, but the aesthetic is too similar to really grab my interest. Plus, girl protagonists replacing a man, I mean, Shia LeBouf (who is more accurately defined as a whiney b*tch), ehhhh... I grabbed a 4K copy of Ready Player One ($8) instead! :lol  Also, Alita ($12) & Shazam ($8). Also recommend Detective Pikachu ($9), if you're a fan of Pokemon or have young kids! :)

    Is Megalopolis known for not shipping orders? I placed an order and they haven’t charged my card yet. o_O
