When does sale start? Leader 86 Grimlock for $44 sounds like a good idea.

Huh. What's the postage going to be like? Cos if this goes like last year, online might be the only way to get a Rodimus for a while.

Still doesn't make sense to have the thing start online first when they fill those orders by removing stock from physical shelves...

I don't think they do take it off the shelves unless you choose pick up. Last year the online stock was treated as a separate store in their system and that is why once it ran out online, that was it. It was also why there was limited stock as it was only what they had at the distribution centre.

I hope they send out the hard copy catalogue to my house or that I can pick one up in store. It's such a useful thing to carry around to the other retailers who can price match. The 4 week sale might overlap with (wave 3 Kingdom) stock arriving at other retailers, giving us more buying opportunities. Toymate members also get 5% off matched prices, which Toymate should honour since Big W is not a "percent off" type sale (Toymate won't match those).

Folks, Big W has a NINETY DAY change of mind return policy. My strategy/recommendation if you’re concerned about missing out, but also want the best price.

1. Buy it now at full price. Save your receipt.
2. Open it. Enjoy it.
3. If you find it on sale, buy it again!
4. Return that one with original receipt.

[Tranceblade]

They wouldn't let me do that with Sky Lynx last year

[Jellico]

Don't open it. They can put it back on the shelf so a kid can buy it. Surely we have the restraint to wait two weeks to get the sale one and open that.

If you select in-store pickup then the item is taken from the shelf and kept for you at the service desk. If you select delivery then it comes from a distribution centre.

$7.90 flat shipping metro. $9.90 for you JJJ (just because you're special ). I don't mind paying $8 - that works out to be still more than 20% off the normal price for Rodimus. And there will be other stuff to buy for the flat rate.
