This Is No Fish Tale!

You probably won't believe this tale of The Vintage Collection Millennium Falcon, but click through to read what JTA reader Frank experience with his online order!

Hello Guys!

Wanted to briefly share my experience with you with regards to the $125 TVC TRU.com Falcon. I was lucky enough to catch it twice at the $125 price a week apart from each other these past 2 Sundays. Since I had bit at it for the previous week’s in store sale price of $179 with $10 coupon, I figured I would get one and see just how it was delivered and return it to the store for the taxed $192.

To my surprise, the first shipment arrived within days and was boxed in it’s original factory shipper box and then boxed again in a box twice as big with lots of air bags!! Needless to say it was flawless and a keeper for my mint collection. Fast forward a week to the second delivery when I just couldn’t resist the good deal again. Ordered Sunday evening again and this time it said it was due for delivery on Tuesday!

This time I arrived home to see from the street a bright colored TVC Falcon box sitting at my door! NO SHIPPING BOX at all!! They just slapped the shipping label on it and a clear pocket for the receipt and off it went!! I expected at least the original shipper box but nyet!! Needless to say it was in fair condition and made a very easy decision to pick which one was going to be returned. Had not seen any reports about the delivery on either sets of deals and thought I would share my very different experiences!

Frank - I think I would have died if I saw that collectors' item unprotected outside my door i the collectible box. You're a calmer man than me!
