Re: Titans Return Trypticon Amazon Canada 157.94 + tax

What was crazy was I ordered these at 615 am on Sunday morning and they were delivered by 1pm on Monday.

Really poorly packaged and both boxes damaged but man, that's fast.

Very cool figure.

I used to work a LOT of ovenight shifts and amazon has some weird algorithm where there are these flash sales. THose of you in IT prob know this much better but the price is adjusted automatically by some running algorithim and sometimes it overshoots or someone somewhere has listed it for a low price that i think was in this case and it matches it.

The reissue G1 trypticon I also got for something ridiculously cheap at 3 am and then by morning it was gone.

I put it up as fast as I could. I will keep doing it for big ticket stuff but I dont work overnights anymore.

Mine just arrived. For $150cad+tax not bad. Only crappy part is that my Rubbermaid dish tray I bought didn't ship together and I've got to wait until friday for it to arrive.

Even on clearance at TRU, I dont think it'll go lower then $150.

Fort Max was on clearance for 149.99.

If you were able to stack the bogo and coupon at the time, you could get fort max it as low as $110 all in, which is great. What are the odds a simliar deal will come around then?

I think if you want a big dino, this is a pretty good price.

You started with saying that this was the lowest price you've seen for it. I was merely pointing out there was actually a cheaper price than that previously. Even if you didn't have other people to go in with you to take advantage of that coupon, you could've still bought 3, then sold the other 2 at their post-coupon value to other boardies here perhaps. Just saying there was one price cheaper once upon a time, nothing more, nothing less. 2nd lowest price would be a more accurate statement.

I am just trying to help and this is what you tell me that if one had bought three and then sold the other 2 then it would come out at less per unit? Why dont you open a shop on line order a 100 keep 1 and then sell the other 99. I am sure the unit price would be even lower.

Everyone else knows by what I mean for the lowest price I have seen! I am just trying to help and some people were able to get it in time.

You can have the last word.
