Ah OK, cool I wondered if they normally only had a couple at a time. That's good to know, thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super Hans Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Tempted to hop on board this one. With the promo (probably £25 after fees), £10 voucher, £10 VIP and 7% cashback it seems a good buy in. I guess this will be around for a while though so will be hard to resist the temptation to build it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheese Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Careful though. If you add the £10 voucher it takes you below the £100 min spend by 1p and the free gift doesn’t get added Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Val-E Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 so you add a cheese slope and with luck they will ship separately. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good job it’s AFOL day on Saturday. 2 issues with Lego cashback: 1 - It's pre-VAT, so 7% is actually 5.8%. 2 - Actually receiving the cashback. I've got transactions from early October that are still stuck in pending. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GregP Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 Just for info both my Saturn Vs from Lego’s arrived in mint condition along with the 60 year promo. Packaged correctly with the promo down the side rather than on top. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheese Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 Such payments probably happen in a monthly basis. Multi-national companies typically have a set schedule for such types of payments which maximises their liquidity based on geography, currency etc. Hence it won’t be 90 days on the dot. If 120 days have elapsed and nothing, then would be worth chasing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sprocket77 Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 Lego usually take a lot longer than other companies to pay over, can be 5/6 months, wouldn't bother yourself chasing it or worrying about it. You'll get paid eventually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pietsma Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 I was shocked to see this today in a local toy shop (Intertoys). A bad sign if you ask me. Not even to talk about the fact that they’ve put these sets below the Nexo Knights. Maybe that’s a sign/forecast for the possible gains for Ideas sets here in Holland from now on.. ? Here in the Netherlands Ideas sets were, from what I’ve experienced, exclusive to SAH. And now they’re apparently also available to ‘the public mom and dad who has no clue about the existence of SAH’. Now I feel a little less confident of my SAH orders (4x) for the Apollo from the last couple of days. 60 years sets makes the pain a little more bearable, but nonetheless.. ? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somebody buys it at that price? Intertoys is often selling LEGO with a mark-up to RRP. Compare from the picture: Detective's Office at €163,99 (RRP: €159,99) Brick Bank at €183,99 (RRP: €169,99) VW T1 Van at €109,99 (RRP: €99,99) Intertoys is the only nation-wide toy-store in The Netherlands, so they have a monopoly there. Of course there are some local toy stores selling LEGO as well, but they are limited to a regional presence at most. If you're not living in that region you're out of luck and limited to the ubiquitous Intertoys... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well yeah, but e.g. Detective's office is like 20x bigger than Ferrari car - and still in your words only like 4 EUR more expensive.. that car costs here around 14-15 EUR give or take the exchange rate and on your photo the "premium" is even bigger than that of modular. .. bijenkorf or mediamarkt is not selling anything? I remember from living in DH that these used were the ones I usually went to when looking for something (of course in that time I paid no attention to LEGO at all ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both Ideas sets, however, are RRP.. This was the first time I saw Ideas sets at Intertoys. And from the Apollo I’ve expected it the least. Not a pleasant surprise. @Crayxlp; Mediamarkt isn’t selling LEGO. If you’re lucky you stumble upon a lost Dimension set, that’s it. Bike lord is only selling the standard stuff so not very interesting. Edited February 2, 2018 by Pietsma Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MusiKyle Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 Toys R US online has 21309 for $119.99. Not sure if that's more indicative of current supply in the market or Toys R US coming to their senses with some of their financial issues. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eliminator Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 Walmart Canada has reduced these to $119.89 (about $90USD)...usually a decent indication that these are on the way out. At least from my experience. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
