2019 Walmart VC144 Skiff Guard Lando

[Nicklab]

I like to *THINK* that I can be pretty patient and would eventually see this Lando on the pegs at my local Walmart store.  But lo and behold, there's been a Measles outbreak in the area where that particular Walmart store is located.  Out of an abundance of caution I am not going near that store for the next month or more.  And vaccinations or not, I'm not risking exposure to the measles to find an exclusive figure or go on a toy run.  What's happened though is that a lot of retail stores in that area are like ghost towns, Walmart included, because of this nonsense.

In light of the situation I gladly placed an order via the Walmart app.  And I'm still waiting on a shipping notification.

I am really starting to question your commitment to this hobby, Nick. 

I checked into my Walmart account today and no change.  At least it didn't disappear!

I know, Matt, I know.  There was once a time where a highly communicable disease would NEVER stand in the way of me getting a retail exclusive as soon as humanly possible.  I look on this shift in priorities as a blight on my record.

So now my Walmart Account shows that his order is delayed.

I'm patient, so we'll see what happens.

So now my Walmart Account shows that his order is delayed.

Mine too - "Delayed—check back later for status update"

I'm still assuming it's a 50/50 - either cancelled or shipped in October.

I know it doesn't mean anything until it clears, but my credit card has THREE FOUR charges of $14.32 pending.  Waiting to see if they drop off or if any clear... there should only be one.

[Jesse James]

You got everyone’s Lando!

[Rob]

Apparently not, I just got an email saying it's on backorder and that if they can't ship by 4/13 they'll cancel my order...

I'd rather wait, it drives me crazy that they don't give me the option to leave it in place.

Rob, we need you to spend at least 3 times retail for one of these on eBay.  That way we will all get our orders filled.

Okay but when it works, everyone kicks in so we split the extra!

I got my delay notification as well.  Gotta love it.

I've also heard that people were getting multiple pending charges for their orders. 

Edit: I decided to check my account on wm.com and was surprised Lando has apparently shipped with an estimated in-store arrival of 4/9.  So you might want to check your accounts as well.

They went back up on WM.com today. I checked my status, tracking claims mine will arrive today.

I just posted an edit on mine, in case you hadn't seen it, but I got an update on the arrival date of Tuesday.  We'll see if it's true, but if it's a delay of a few days then I'm fine with it.

[Mister Skeezler]

I got a shipping notification from USPS with a Monday arrival date, so I guess these are happening.

[JediJman]

I did ship to store and didn't get any delay notices.  IT says my order will be ready for pickup Monday evening.  Hopefully the rest of your orders are just delayed, not cancelled.

[Darth_Anton]

My order arrived in a box tot small for the cards.  Damage wasn't horrible, but still. The interior volume of the box is probably about 1/16 of an inch smaller that the square of the card.

[Rob]

Just got a shipping notice for mine too.  Now if three of those four pending charges can just drop off my card I'll be all set.
