If it's the latter; how would onw know they have been reset without trying? I get this from LEGO: We sometimes put limits on popular sets so as many LEGO fans as possible can get their hands on them. Although you won’t be able to buy those sets right now, we regularly change and remove purchase limits, so it’s a good idea to keep an eye on our website over the next few months.

Based on all the banning that Lego did a few years back, I have always figured that it's best to just live within the limits. Who knows when they'll up and decide that serial orderers deserve the ban hammer once again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume if one is banned you can search the site but not order. am I correct on that? So joneyyy problem would be something different if cant log in. I'm guessing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You and others could place orders to your address, but they would all be cancelled. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

$20 on joe vs dan Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 placed order for The Child and Anakin podracer...few hours later; order canceled because of limit on the Child (totally forgot I got one earlier)...saw the sale at Costco (win!) anyway, can you purchase at the Lego store (and get VIP points)? or are the purchase limits also enforced in the B&M? Obviously can purchase incognito, but want the points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously can purchase incognito, but want the points. Shop@Home and B&M's are separate in regards to limits. You will get your VIP points. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a network of family members with different addresses that buy for me on their shop at home account and other sites. 1 brother, 1 sister, 1 parent's house, ect. I send them money via PayPal and they pay from their PayPal. I send them text messages like, hey buy me max of this set or that set, and they do it. We see each other at our parents house during the many holidays that we celebrate together though out the year and they bring me my spoils of war. Family...you can't beat it. Could be SupraBoy?

maestro Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 (edited) I just placed 2 separate orders, each 1 containing a Santa's Sleigh. Lego cancelled the entire order. Has this happened to anyone? Update: caused by Santa's Sleigh Edited October 20, 2021 by maestro update Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has this happened to anyone? Update: caused by Santa's Sleigh Lego now enforce a hard limit when buying online. In UK santa sleigh is limit of 1, so you've went over. No way around it unfortunately. Only resets when limit goes up I.e. from 1 to 2 etc. Doubt it will go up before xmas this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KShine Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 (edited) Don't go over the limit - If you are unsure of how many you bought over time, don't buy more. At first they will simply cancel the order, but in time they will cancel you. Edited October 20, 2021 by KShine 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you using VIP points? As sometimes when you use an old VIP code you get this error, or if you input your credit card details wrong. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
