I usually wait until I need a lot of items and put in orders during promo events. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they ban me for buying too many powerfunctions, I would post a picture of all my Technic mocs and create at $hit storm on social media about it. I have put 4 or 5 $100 orders to get the promo's and had only one issue crop up. They cancelled an order once a couple years ago. I called in and they said it was odd and forwarded it to another department. Order was re-instated the next day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 Phil B Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 I bought the Power Functions kit (AA battery box, Medium motor, pole switch, lights and some gears) at the LEGO B&M store a few months back. Manager allowed me to buy 7 in 1 transaction (needed them for my educational business). They typically have a limit of 5 in store but if you ask nicely they let you buy more.

I don't think they're as strict now as I ordered 10x Trevi Fountains (UK limit) back-to-back and got 15 Snow Globes without a problem. It seems like the handle has broken off the ban hammer.

Lots of technic folk like me have PF duplicates coming out of their ears so we are happy to undercut TLG. The pack with the M motor can also often be found cheaper on Amazon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have a link for the Amazon set that's cheaper than the Lego Shop? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 Val-E Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 No, because I am from Europe but the set reference is 8293. Another one to watch is the new 42065 RC tracked vehicle as that is loaded with PF´s and should be heavily discounted down the line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 Guest TabbyBoy Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 Do any of you buy the train sets cheap, part them put and then use the PF for items like the Winter Holiday Train? I did OK breaking down the 60051 High Speed Trains that I bought for £43 a while back. I was making over £40 profit per train set by parting out. Half price Techic (like the Xerion at Tesco now) could also be an option as there's also a market for Technic parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! hi, in addition to the answers above, i would also recommend checking the link below to get and compare prices. http://www.brickpicker.com/bpms/sets.cfm?theme=590&sort=set_year&order=desc http://www.brickpicker.com/bpms/amazon.cfm#Power Functions https://shop.lego.com/en-US/Power-Functions i do agree with the posters who recommended to check shop.lego.com. for some reason, lego's own onllne store usually has the lowest price (plus promos) but sometimes amazon has nice sales on PF items.
