Hogwarts Express Train Set @ Costco
Hi guys,
Costco has this new train set (Set #10132) in stock and on sale, from October 18th to the 31st. Shop at Home price is $169.99 Cdn. Costco's sale price is $134.99. I'm willing to pick up a set for anyone without a Costco membership. Just let me know. We can settle up at Friday's meeting.

Just so that you are aware of the bluish track is included in this setPeople who wrote Notes about this set (2 people)
Aaron West: "Sticker on sheet for tender car is included with non-motor Azkabah model too. Only buy this if you lack parts to build your own, or are a completionist collector."
Hendrik SvL Bergmann: "Bah! dark bluish grey track!!!"
Re: Hogwarts Express Train Set @ Costco
I'm rethinking getting this set at Costco. TRU has it for $169.99, and chances are they'll clear it out sometime for at least 25% off (and probably more), which will bring it down to $127.49 (or less).Robin wrote:Costco has this new train set (Set #10132) in stock and on sale, from October 18th to the 31st.

An Update:
The set actually comes bundled with an EXTRA 4515 (8 straight track) and 4520 (8 curved track) in original OLD DARK GREY!
Unfortunately, all the pieces INSIDE the actual train set are the new colours, including the track (16 curves + 2 straight).
Imagine how choked some parent is going to be when they start piecing together the old and new track ... Consumer Affairs is going to get a *lot* of calls ...
Still, with the extra track, I bought one. My offer still stands. Just let me know, and I'll pick one (or more) up for you, $160 all taxes in (might be a little cheaper now with the PST reduction, but Costco may not have their tills updated yet).

Hey, if anyone out there can and is willing, would they pick up one of the 99 dollar Hogwarts trains for me. I am out in Abby and can't get into BBY very easily. I can pay them at the meeting on the 28th.

If anyone ends up at Costco and wants to get me one of these, i'd be happy! I'm not in that area too often and don't have access to a Costo card these days. i tihnk Nathan said they had 4, as of three weeks ago. Old news, maybe i should have said something sooner.
call me if much time has passed and you think i might have one already.

Thanks

Wow! Amazing. IF, and that's a big IF, anyone finds many of them, buy them, we can draft them. Or at least I'd take another.Robin wrote:Dropped by Costco at about 6:30pm tonight. They had 4 left until very recently (maybe even this morning). They had marked them down even further to $69.99!!
Of course, they were all gone. Sorry, David. Hopefully one of you guys got in this last, great deal.
