Jaynee 63 Posted March 2, 2018 Hoping I get a tax refund this year so that I can pick up at least one controller. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NTJP 1 Posted March 21, 2018 Think the fire will hurt the sale this year? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Septon 19 Posted March 21, 2018 Yeah I am waiting on this too. I hope that the fire isn't going to be a problem though. Thanks for putting that in my head NTJP Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
k6ccc 885 Posted March 21, 2018 Based on what was reported at the time, I would not expect the fire to be much of an issue. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dibblejr 855 Posted March 21, 2018 Since they have been shipping as usual I’d say no. IMO they really didn’t miss a beat. JR Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CampbellHouse 1 Posted March 22, 2018 Thanks everyone - hopefully JR is right - need to pick up some RGB controllers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rcoaster 2 Posted March 26, 2018 The fire happened at the other side of the complex where LOR is. The only impact they had was that their phone lines went down. I assume they have gotten them back up already. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DevMike 429 Posted March 27, 2018 It was not a hint. That is the standard canned reply we give to people on the help desk when they ask about a sale. I have no clue if/when a sale will occur. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ovsims 4 Posted March 27, 2018 This is so exciting. It's my first time and with all this mis-direction I can hardly sleep at night 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I tried a couple times and by the time I was done submitting my order, the main items on my order were sold out. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NTJP 1 Posted March 27, 2018 Yep.... "Not giving any Hints". But, sure hope there is a sale.... Last year was my first and sounds like the same. Checked daily for any hint of the sale and then when it posted, made my list and had my Ipad and computer both going... Oh yea, asked the wife if I could buy... Did not say how much.... Then came the sale... Just like having Christmas... Could not wait... Watched the count down and within 15 seconds had the order ready. Pushed buy and the excitement was like opening a Christmas present. Forgot to mention wife gets text alert anytime credit card is used.... Then I hear "NORMAN>>>>>" yep... She got the cost. Went all summer then fall building props and making sequences. Wife not happy... Said I love the computer more than her..... Then had an opening night.... After first sequence played she sad "What we doing for next year" SOLD Now wife excited and buying the mega tree.... Happy day...... Wife planning opening night with hot chocolate and candy canes... and here I am again checking daily waiting for that sale...... FOR YOU NEW GUYS..... It is living a dream and like being Christmas everyday of the year. You hear songs and dream of light shows..... It is a way of life...... ENJOY Use the form for questions and advise. Have received a lot.... dibblejr has been a big help answering questions and reading post. I know there are may others with advice I have read and all are good.

If all else fails you’ll have to pay full price anyways so never hurts to check for item every day. JR Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

However last year I purchased my ccr mega tree- during your mini. The hotel had bad reception and it sold out the first day. Sunday morning Don noticed they had more so I lucked out. I ended up getting 5 AC controllers, the ccr mega tree and a couple pixies along with extra ccr ribbons. Funny how Don and I shared the room, he had good reception and I had spotty reception.
