bricketycricket Posted November 10, 2014 Author Share Posted November 10, 2014 I went for PS and R2 but there are a lot of good choices available Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redghostx Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Prices are still poor compared to us prices, if you have access. Best options look like Simpsons house and Horizon Express - it's nice that Canada gets a deal though. Also note no T1 or DS on the website now. Ex Astris, Scientia.

I would not say the prices are poor compared to US anymore, unless you have US$ currency and don't need declare taxes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lego rules Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 looks like you can only use the code once per account. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

speedsausage Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 The thread title says Nov. 9 only. Just double checking if this is truly a one day sale? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bricketycricket Posted November 10, 2014 Author Share Posted November 10, 2014 The thread title says Nov. 9 only. Just double checking if this is truly a one day sale? That is my understanding but I didn't receive the promo code first-hand so I can't confirm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedsausage Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 (edited) Sigh, looks like the promo has expired for the west coast Edit: probably needed to be ordered before 9pm PST. Edited November 10, 2014 by speedsausage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you manage to get anything? I purchased as soon as I found out about the promo for fear of this and also because I thought some sets might go OOS because of this.

I purchased as soon as I found out about the promo for fear of this and also because I thought some sets might go OOS because of this. Unfortunately not. I was out for a family birthday, then it was bedtime routine with the little guy. Didn't have a chance until it was already too late. It's really too bad, we never see sales on these sets, especially up here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcanum777 Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Thanks for this heads up. I picked over everybody's leftovers to buy a couple of Pet Shops and some Octonauts and Disney Planes Christmas stuff for my kids. Everyone seemed to be taking a shot at the 15% off though. I had 10 things in my cart and only ended up being able to buy 6 of them by the time the checkout process was ending. Stuff was apparently racing out of stock.

Arcanum777 Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 How long ago did you place your order? I finished up at about 8:40 west coast time. I was guessing 9pm Pacific would have been the cutoff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stragus Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 To me, it seems that 10% off as VIP points plus a bonus set (worth $15-$20) beats this 15% off. It's a good option to safely avoid the hammer ban though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a good option to safely avoid the hammer ban though. have you ran the math??? This deal is better than triple VIP. For instance, I bought a bunch of tower bridges. DBL VIP $300 + tax = $339 and you get $30 in VIP + bonus worth maybe $15 = $294. I haven't sold even one xmas set priced at $20 TRP VIP $300 + tax = 339 and you get $45 in VIP = $294 maybe minus a set? 15% off direct. $300 - $45 = $255 + tax = $288 This was a rare event and doubtful will happen again soon. Too bad they removed a bunch of other sets, I would have loaded up even more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandwraith Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 With R2 doing the dance this would have been a great set to grab during this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weakside Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 One day I don't check BP and I miss out lol. Nice catch for those that took advantage of the savings. I would have bought from sets for personal build/collection for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even for $200 sets, I would rather save the money upfront rather than receive VIP points and sell off an extra item. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigreen Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Didn't check BP yesterday between 8:00 and 9:00 so passed this sale. Btw could bricketycricket tell us how could one find TRU will have this kind of event? By checking their weekly flyer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
