Do you know if this was this in a catalogue, or have an end date noted?

Hmmm, should I grab one or not?

Ah so that's why I didn't know about it. I checked my email about 4 hours ago, and the email was received about 3 hours ago.
Even with shipping costs, that should make some people still wanting Trypticon really happy.

As Mr Burns would say "Excellent".
I've been waiting for this to be a more reasonable price, pity that click and collect doesnt seem to be available but hopefully should be able to duck in to the local TRU and pick one up on the 26th.

Yay, got mine from the store just now and if the batch codes are right it's from a good batch too so hopefully wont need to do any modding.
Thanks again for the heads up on this sale, much appreciated :)

I saw this on facebook xmas eve/ early morning of xmas while i was up wrapping presents for kids. I ordered one for delivery.
I got one from big w two weeks ago for 208, so being thrifty/cheap i will return that one and save myself $48
Hopefully my unopened one will be put back on the shelf and someone can price match . The circle of life continues.

The clearance roice insore is $199.98.
Round off the numbers, and it might be easier to understand.
The clearance price is $200, which is what the shelf tag will say, because the 25% off is only temporary.
25% of that amount is $50, leaving you with $150 - which is what it should say at the register when you buy it in-store.
If it doesn't say that, then show them the website listing, which already has the clearance price ($200) adjusted down to $150.

It's not that. Clarification that the online price includes the discount would be good.

Look at the product page - that's the TOTAL price you will be charged, plus postage. As I noted above, the 25% discount is already applied, giving you $150, and the price will revert back to $200 when this sale ends.
(ignore the $299.99 price that is crossed out, as that was its original price BEFORE it went on clearance to $199.98 before this sale)

I would've jumped on this but seeing that my money is still stuck with PC who haven't delivered, it's left a bitter taste in my mouth and kinda killed my interest in Trypticon - which really sucks but it's got that impact surprisingly.
Now I understand how the others feel :(

There wasn't any clearance price tag for Trypticon even instore. So you can understand the confusion when I saw the clearance price online on the day is $150 and the email I received shows this:

Edit: Just doubled checked, it is now listed as "in transit". Phew!
I ordered mine on Boxing Day, for delivery. TRU tracking indicates it has been waiting for the courier to pick it up in Doncaster (TRU @Westfield? I'm guessing) ever since, for delivery to the south eastern 'burbs. Praying they don't accidentally sell it and then say "sorry, we're sold out, here's a refund". Hoping it's just the courier not working over the Christmas/New Year break.

I got mine yesterday and ordered the same time as M-Bot. It was delivered to my work across the road from TRU Doncaster. It came from TRU Chadstone if I remember correctly.
It sat as awaiting pick up for two days before it was. The box it came in was only 75% filled by the Trypticon Box. It had one thin piece of bubble wrap in the bottom the went up one side and lay across the top of the box leaving the 25% empty space empty.
The empty part was crushed dinging one end of the box. The delivery box was gouged damaging the Trypticon box with gouges directly in the middle of the front as it was the side that had no thin piece of bubble wrap on it.
Absolutely disgraceful way of shipping and packaging the product. Only ordered online to guarantee stock and was looking for a Pick Up option. Maybe they can add that to the site along with being able to select what figures you want rather than a lucky dip.

At least you got bubble wrap, there was absolutely nothing from mine.
Thurmus
3rd January 2018, 03:21 PM
I would class it as token bubble wrap.

mine also has nothing. also a larger box only.
