Barnes and Noble has Rebel Transport ready to ship!

By Mesrob, in X-Wing

Guys, don't know if you shop on B&N, but I just purchased the Rebel Transport on their website. And it was not a pre-order. I just got confirmation that it is ready to ship. I checked this morning and the webiste said that it was unavailable, and then I checked after lunch and they had it ready to order! It was $59.95, but I had a %20 off coupon, and a $5 gift certificate, so after tax, I got it for around $45. Plus as a member, I get free express shipping so I should get it by Friday or Saturday. Honestly, I do not work for B&N, but wanted to pass this along that they have it ready to order. I think it is still on pre-order everywhere else. Good luck everyone.

Thanks for the heads up!

I've been hounding my local store - they said it arrived today, and is allowed to go on shelves tomorrow.

Sounds like a lunch time trip.

I won't be able to hit my LGS until after work, but B&N is nextdoor :)

Really! Please let us know if this is truly the case.

If you get an email confirmation or get the product.

Thanks,

Yes, I just got an e-mail confirmation that my Rebel Transport was scheduled to ship. Got confirmation for the purchase, and then confirmation that it was scheduled to ship today. So hopefully, this is the real deal. If something comes up, I will let you know.

Great news! Keep me informed

Woohoo! Come on MiniMarket...get in line.

coolstuff is showing pre-order again... Pretty sure it was unavailable the other day.

*shakes fist* Mini Markeeeeeeeeet

Most distributors are not shipping to FLGS until Monday which means most shelves will have it on Wednesday/Thursday of next week.

Placed an order w/ B&N (looks like they're now sold out) and it's purportedly going to be delivered tomorrow ((free) same day local shipping in Manhattan). We'll see! If the remaining components haven't been spoiled by tomorrow evening and it does indeed get delivered, I'll be sure to spoil the remaining components for those interested.

If anyone gets one please let me know.

Thanks,

I would be interested too, I just placed an order with next day shipping. Got shipping confirmation with no caviots

I made my order yesterday with B&N and I got an expected ship date of 5/13 :(

the FFGC at last check, did not have them in yet, and they normally get first crack at them....so my hope is tonight, when I go there, they will have at least one for me to drool over.

Was anyone able to go into a B&N to confirm they're on the shelf today?

I put in an order yesterday and expected ship date was today. Doesn't look like it happened yet :(

I just walked to my local B&N and they didn't have it in stock. Then again I've been constantly hitting up this same location and they never seemed to have the Aces either

I was able to stop into my local B&N after I got off work and it looks like they were planning on doing a major reset tonight because they had put up the diagrams on all the shelves. I'm going to check back tomorrow to see if they did the reset. I'll be sure to post an update if anything new happens.

For those of you that prefer visual proof:

What have you guys been using for search terms on B&N's website. I've been using "Star Wars X-Wing" + "Expansion Pack" and all I've been getting is the Imperial Aces pack, the TIE fighter pack, half of Wave 2, all of Wave 3 and preorder offers for Wave 4 and the Tantive IV but everything else including the Rebel Transport isn't listed.

Does this mean that they are sold out? I ask because the TIE fighter pack doesn't have a price from B&N but does have a New/Used listing so I would expect any other pieces that have sold out would have the same type of listings.

Their website has been acting strange today. When I go on my phone I was able to find it at the URL below but when I go to it on my laptop it says it doesn't exist. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

My B&N had it on order but they had no idea when it would be there.

I was at the event center and I think they've made some space for it, but it isn't out yet.

Just called my local B&N, they don't know when they will get it, I could order it. Idk, maybe she didn't know what I was talking about. I will stop my later

Walked in last night, they said according to their site it was supposed to be on shelves, and still shows ordered for the store, but the did not arrive, obviously, or I'd be making a different post.
