[US] Big Sets Discounted at Walmart.com, Amazon.com

[Staff]

Browsing through the Walmart.com inventory, they have a number of large discounts on the larger Star Wars sets, as well as various other $100+ items. Here are some notable deals:

>>10188 Death Star is $357.89 ($399.99 MSRP)
>>10221 Super Star Destroyer is $335.99 (MSRP $399.99)
>>10225 UCS R2-D2 is $151.19 (MSRP $179.99)
>>10217 Diagon Alley is $125.99 (MSRP $149.99)
>>Modular Building Series is around $120 range ($149.99 MSRP), though most are sold out online.
>>(10224 Town Hall is $161.97 (MSRP $199.99).
>>10231 Shuttle Expedition is $78.27 ($99.99 MSRP)
>>10220 Volkswagen T1 Camper and 10219 Maersk Train are $99-100 (MSRP $119.99)

All of these qualify for $.99 Shipping or free Site-To-Store Shipping, though I've heard some troubling stories about Walmart's shipping quality. Amazon.com has already price-matched some of these like 10231 Shuttle Expedition, 10224 Town Hall, and 10225 R2-D2, and they also qualify for Free Super Saver Shipping.

Thanks a bunch for the heads up. I've been wanting the Shuttle Expedition set for a while and that's a great discount. All you Discover Card members out there, remember that you can shop Wal-Mart's website through the Shopdiscover site and get an additional 5% in rewards dollars.

I thought these might be in response to the b1g1 40% sale from tru this week. If you're getting 20% off or better at amazon, it's a steal with free shipping and no tax if you live in a "good" state for it.

[yogibara]

Yeah thanks a bunch... NOT! I really, really need to turn off tweet notifications for you guys. I just bought the SSD, TB, GE and Pet Shop yesterday. I have no self control or closet space... sigh.

death star went down another few bucks. it's now 336 and some change at walmart

[onions]

amazon matched walmart's super star destroyer price. 336 no tax to most states + free shipping

[ufjason]

Amazon is matching WM's Pet Shop and Fire Brigade price, the pet shop is sold out on WM too. $223.18 shipped to me for both on Amazon, hard to pass up!

[onions]

they also matched the death star

[yogibara]

Exactly! I couldn't justify NOT buying them. I mean come on! Eating is overrated anyway.

[Mofo Jones]

Oh man I wish I had $337 to spare for the Death Star right now - I'd take the savings over the VIP points from LEGO next week!

[hassmyster]

Man they got to put up the great deal with I have no money.

[kibosh]

Thank goodness for credit cards. Gives me 30 days to sell of some other stuff to pay for this! Was not going to make the UCS Falcon mistake again...

[MShiels]

And the death star price is back up.

[nyjpapi]

And the death star price is back up.

It figures. Right when I was ordering it, it jumps back up.

[Yodalicious]

And just like that, back to full price on Amazon.

[kibosh]

I feel like I finally pulled the trigger on this set at the best possible time. Almost ordered yesterday from Walmart, but just couldn't get past the $20+ in tax. Thank you Amazon!
