weakside Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 yeah, as you mentioned...nothing special, no promo polybags or price errors = no trips to TRU this week Little bit of a discount on Helms Deep but Amazon.ca price was better a few weeks ago.

seapotato Posted July 19, 2013 Author Share Posted July 19, 2013 Amazon UK has an even better deal on Helm's Deep right now. I just ordered it the other night. Nothing TOO amazing if you compare to USD pricing, but at least it's not Canadian retail price! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoNotInsertIntoMouth Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 I might check out the store just to make sure they didn't mess up prices there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing TOO amazing if you compare to USD pricing, but at least it's not Canadian retail price! yeah, keep hearing/seeing UK deals from members...tempting but I'm just too chicken to pull the trigger at this point haha. I'm not making as much profit as other CAN investors/members because I just buy domestically. Because of some box damage I got 3 Helms Deep from Amazon for $98 CAN each which is pretty good I thought. I normally just take advantage when there's actually decent sales 30%-60%, clearance, promo's, price errors etc. to avoid the CAN retail prices. When I first started back in March I thought 20% was AMAZING lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seapotato Posted July 19, 2013 Author Share Posted July 19, 2013 Ooo, $98 is pretty good! I think it's about $114 from Amazon UK. I still think 20% off is amazing LMAO. But not at TRU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weakside Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 $114 is very good and a lot cheaper than any current CAN price. Eventhough I like the Helms Deep set so much I couldn't bring myself to pay $169.99 + 13% taxes...patiently waited for ANY discount off CAN price and luckily another Canadian member posted their Amazon.ca deals. For some sets like Arkham...Haunted House...just getting 20% off is pretty good since they don't go on sale often. ph4tb0i LOVES the UK amazon site haha...don't blame him/others since the discounts are really nice when there's a sale.

seapotato Posted July 19, 2013 Author Share Posted July 19, 2013 Wish I saw the amazon.ca deal! I have some gift cards in that account I would like to use, and would save me the worry of damaged boxes and import fees from the UK! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seapotato Posted July 21, 2013 Author Share Posted July 21, 2013 Barrel escape 43.97, yay or nay? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agp548 Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 Barrel escape 43.97, yay or nay? definitely no. it retails for 39.99 on lego shop at home. get it there and at least you get vip points Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest eightbrick Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 definitely no. it retails for 39.99 on lego shop at home. get it there and at least you get vip points This is a Canadian thread, in Canada it retails for 49.99, so it is a better deal than LEGO Shop at Home, but I agree, at that price you won't be able to compete in the aftermarket.

@rtisan Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Unexpected Gathering at $72? (Includes taxes). I`m leaning toward no, but am also seeing a potential double for this a couple years down the road. May wait till the next sales comes around (should be lots of time) but what do others think?

comicblast Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Didn't realize that TRU exclusives could also be found at LEGO Shop at Home! Yes, there are very few exclusive sets that cannot be found at LEGO Shop at Home, and those exclusives usually being polybags that other retailers give with certain offers. It wouldn't be good for LEGO Shop at Home to not have a set that every other store does! I guess they kind of did that for some of the non-exclusive polybags though. Out of curiousity, has anyone ever gotten a non-exclusive polybag from LEGO Shop at Home? I mean one like the TIE Fighter or something.
