BigW mid-year toy sale - June 22nd to July 12

[DELTAprime]

TLTC is $195+$15 shipping-$210
Big w after 5% -$235.60

I'm assuming you can't wait or trust TLTC yet, either way I COULD save on shipping but going up to them via public transport isn't fun lol, I'm just deciding my options myself

Paying $248 for Trypticon from Big W and being able to own the toy immediately sure beats paying $160 for the same toy from Premium Collectables where you may be still waiting for this toy in a year's time. Just take my damn money, Big W!

There is something to be said for walking into a store and walking out with what you wanted and not having to wait for delivery. Still something tells me that I'll be waiting on delivery a lot more when the retail Death Star that is Amazon comes in a couple of months.

I tend to agree with that. That sense of 'phwoaaar' when you see something on the shelf or peg that you weren't expecting or looking for.

In my case however, it's a lot easier as I usually have 1st pick of everything that comes through the back dock -perks of the job, if you will- so some of that is lost a little on me, but I get where you're coming from.

Ah bugger! I'll be in Melbourne on the 20th for the new movie and driving through Bendigo on the 21st - both of which has Big Ws.

Just hoping my inlaws can pick me up a Trypticon on the 22nd and have it waiting before they go on holidays

Totally agree. And it's also much easier to exchange/refund toys from brick and mortar stores. Not to mention the joys of dealing with a human being when making your purchase. Even if it's just saying hello to the staff member supervising the self-service checkouts or interacting with the staff member at the entrance. Absolutely prefer real life shopping over online shopping. I still really dislike online shopping and only resort to it out of necessity.

Can anyone post a link to the actual catalogue? I want to look at non-TF items, but I can't find it on bigw or lassoo

I would pay $160 anytime for peace of mind
