Mattel Disney Pixar CARS 2 Diecast: Kmart CARS Event Pre-Sale Shipping & Re-Orders
So, the final word appears to be that if you placed an order on Saturday for $79.80, they have honored the price and in some cases have already shipped it so it will arrive on or before the event on the 16th this Saturday.
They have canceled orders if you placed orders for more than 1 case and the price is now $95.76.
So you will need to re-order again – ONE at a time if you want extra cases.
The LINK appears to be back to COMING SOON. It’s hard to tell if that will change between now and the 16th but in the last few years, they also offered cases after the in-store event.
Clearly, it seems that even if Kmart.com is having an web sale, you can exclude items so why this was not excluded but listed at a “sale price,” then disappeared and then canceled without any emails, it’s hard to say.
In golf parlance, it’s par for the course and we have yet to have an online event go without any major glitches.
So, chime in when you get your case … or try and order below.

…………Has any one seen my dog Toto?
Nope. have not seen you and your little dog too ! (wicked witch voice)
Got my case today by UPS as I worked in the yard. Came with the assortment as listed in previous post. Hope everyone gets their cases soon! Good Luck! Drew
My case made it all the way to Baltimore tonight, guess I’ll have to wait ’til Monday to get the last 40 miles to Frederick.
Just got shipping confirmation for my 2 orders with a total of 3 cases… the order of 3 was canceled and stayed canceled… it looks like they changed their mind and shipped both cases in my order for 2 cases – I’d received an e-mail stating I’d only get one of the 2 cases.
Here’s hoping that tomorrow’s event goes more smoothly than the presale.
Just received notice that my case has shipped via UPS. Anyone know where they are shipped from?
Do they pack the case inside another box, or just send the case as it and let UPS have their way with it?
Illinois…
Previous cases arrived in a larger box with lots and lots of peanuts…
but who knows these days..
I am happy to hear a few of you are getting confirmation and shipping emails. I wish I could have ordered a case. It never let me attepmt to do it. They have closed 3 of my closest 4 stores around these parts, including the store we have ALWAYS attended the event at. I have called a dozen stores this morning and 75% of them have confirmed they only have 1 master case for their store. I fear that we may not get the cars we need for us or the folks we normally try to help.
Let me know if I can do anything to help!
Mine still says Processing. Sure hope they don’t cancel me!!
UPDATE: KMart just dinged my credit card for my order and sent a confirmation email. It looks like I am good to go!
All of mine are now shipped to Utah.
Welcome to the RMS Kmart Shipped Boat!
Confirmation Received. Now I just hope the case is correct…though a Kmart Day 1 cars case would be well received :)..unlikely…haha
Just got a shipping notice for my order placed on Saturday! Yahooooooo!
got mine too from the one ordered from yesterday– i don’t know if it is true but one of my fellow collectors said they cut back production of cases by quite a bit hence the trouble getting them online
Well…one good thing from this is that after buying 5 cars you’ll get the 6th car FREE!
Let’s wait and see on that one! Who knows what Kmart’s computers will do on Saturday…
I added one case to my cart Monday. Today I was able to do the 10% discount and allegedly complete the order. With shipping and tax it came out to about $96. I was leery of ordering a case. because I didn’t want 6 LMQs and 4 Bernoullis. Anyone wanna trade 3 LMQs and 1 Bernoulli for a Celine?
Price is now $79.85, but in-store pick up only and of course it shows not available in store.
Da frick?!?
It never changed for me…$95.76 still!!
2:48 am 06-13-2012 it is now 79.80 again
…….and once again back to the $79.80 but switches from temporarliy unavailable for a period of time back to pre-order status and sometimes depending on its mood it will have the coming soon email me link. Today is an odd numbered day so anything can happen. If you search the item on the K site it will have what looks like the pre-order tab but please please please no clickly there you will get notttthhhhinnng. Or if you’re lucky enough to get one in your Cart you will get your hand slapped and your order(s) cancelled by the powers that be.Does anyone remember when stores were in business to actually sell things?
It says temporarily unavailable again.
BMW or will someone try this – just use the search bar on K-mart.com for “cars collector event”. Does everyone still see pre-order and $79.80??
It is actually how I was able to get one in my cart and check-out on Monday at that price. Doesn’t work anymore but it did then. As Nascarfan mentioned earlier K-mart did say they were almost out so looks like that’s it…..until the returns start. But that is another sad story.
Who’s a sad story?….
Oh yea never mind…..
Tried it and yes it shows the 79.80.
When I clicked add to cart, this is what the pop up said.
Item not added to cart.
We are sorry, this item couldn’t be added to your cart. Please try again later.
I am going to get them from a family member who has a Kmart nearby.
Thanks anyway.
use this code it is good till the 16th for 10% off kmart10psavings
just got my order in
Julie at Kmart states there is only a handful left.
Get them now if you want them when it goes back up live
How are people ordering? Its certainly not open right now.
If it was still in your cart you can. I am waiting for one more case to order.
No not in my cart. says 79.80 for the case but still unavailable.
Exasperating.
My wife watches a show on TLC called “What Not To Wear”… this could definitely be an episode of “How Not to Treat Customers and Run a Business”.
Orders placed… then canceled… I used debit cards and it appears that until they canceled an order they froze more money than the total order.
I re-ordered a second case for a friend who’s unable to attend… It showed as $95.76 on the website… Went to check out… added the code for 10% off… it rang up as $71 and change… I had to pay the shipping this time… it may or may not be canceled.
I have 35.000 points on my Shop Your Way Rewards cards, according to receipts at stores (I buy Cars and bath towels)… My card is long misplaced… I went to the website to try to use my points on purchases… they have linked my e-mail address to someone else who has 0 points… No answer to my e-mail and I didn’t get to speak with a person when I called… It’s hard to continue to support a business that doesn’t really support me (and other customers).
I don’t think I’ll buy nearly as many Cars this weekend as I otherwise might have.
9:16 Eastern Time, listed at $95.76 and “Coming Soon!”
Only ordered one case at 79.80 on Saturday but did manage to use a coupon code that dropped my price by 10%. No cancellation notice yet………..
Met: Price is now 79.80. 06-12-2012 at 2:56 am Mountain Time
