Well this just SUCKS.  I ordered a bunch at around 9am on Sat, and my order is
now BACKORDERED, yet others that ordered LATER than I did have already received
their 4561s!

I called, the person seemed to think they were going to try to fill my order,
but somehow I feel I'm going to have a message on my answering machine when I
get home.  If so, I'm going to call them back and give them a piece of my mind -
they should have filled orders in chronological order, even if it meant sending
partial orders for larger orders.

I ordered late on 1/20.  My order status was went to "backorder" Sunday, and
after the call today it changed to "cancelled".   It was nice of them
personally call me. Evidently they tried to get more trains but could not.

So, if some of you want to sell a few 4561, let me know.

If you get a call from Walmart - hang up the phone quick! :-)

Anyone else getting "the call"?

If it makes you feel any better... About 11am Saturday, I sent one 4561 to a retired person who has never had any Lego, always wanted to do model trains but never got the chance.... He got it on Monday morning and built it right away. (When asked if (...) (24 years ago, 24-Jan-01, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade, lugnet.market.shopping)
