lowillsw Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 Maybe a few more days before the clearance on the Winter sets. I'm hoping for some dumbluck on returns for some more FBs. There was a Minimodular returned with all 12 edges wore out on the boxes. Was too much of a mint box snob to pick it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VaderFan16 Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 I do not think the Winter Village sets will go on sale. I am trying to find Lego's "Do Not Discount" list. I believe the Winter Village Market and Winter Village Cottage were both on this list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sue866 Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 Anyone know if the MOA store is worth a visit? It's in my region, but over an hour drive. And you know how Minnesotans drive around here when there's snow... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe the Winter Village Market and Winter Village Cottage were both on this list. Yes, it was mentioned they won't be discounted, but I'm sure if they sit there long enough something will happen. Here's the list (it was in this topic: http://community.brickpicker.com/topic/7043-will-the-winter-village-cottage-definitely-go-on-sale-this-winter/#entry194264) As of July 1st, the following Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sauromosis Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 Is the general consensus that Winter Cottage is better than Winter Village Market? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldsmobile Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 I noticed that too when I was in to grab two WVCs, olds. Did you see any more WVCs left in OP? There were several on the shelf (maybe they had more in the back, but I didn't ask). None of the winter/Christmas themed sets were on sale, so I bought none.

Guest eightbrick Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 Is the general consensus that Winter Cottage is better than Winter Village Market? Definitely. The market feels really spread out and random when you look at it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Lego Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 Anyone know if the MOA store is worth a visit? It's in my region, but over an hour drive. And you know how Minnesotans drive around here when there's snow... I live in Minnesota, but I haven't been to the store since about a month ago. At that time they had sales on some Chima and City sets that were 10% off. For entertainment, here is a video of cars sliding in Bloomington, MN about one mile away from the Mall of America. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OIMT0eihJII Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quacs Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 The thing about Orlando (at least from what I've been told by employees, is that they have the largest storage room in the US. Apparently they send excess stuff here to clear fast, since we have a crazy amount of people visiting every single day and the store is located in Disney....imagine how full the store was today lol From my memory, that store is enormous so they have a lot of floor space in addition to the incredible amount of stock in the back. It is amazing how much business they do int that store daily. Gotta be a top five selling LS. Rock Center LS has to be up there too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My relatives have friends over there who have been without power (in the city, mind you) for 4 days My neck of the woods is really nice right now thankfully, above freezing for days now.

grackleflint Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 If your local LEGO store still has 10227 B-Wing's, they are apparently on sale for 50% off, $99.98. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartinP Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 If your local LEGO store still has 10227 B-Wing's, they are apparently on sale for 50% off, $99.98. Darn it. My local Lego store ran out back in May and never got restocked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qaz Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 I visited the Downtown Disney LEGO store today, as part of a long, futile search for decent deals. Busy, busy, busy, and no sales that I thought were worth my time standing in line. Or worth hauling back to where I had to park, over by Casting. No Winter Village sets at all, and I did ask about them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wholovesboo Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 I'm glad I picked up a WVC back in December before they disappeared completely. Never got a chance to build it before Xmas though, since I was too busy filling eBay orders! Not a bad thing, I know. Based on past experience any ideas on whether WVM will be around all year? I chose WVC over WVM back in December thanks to BPers recommending it since it's the older set. I definitely want the WVM too, especially for that carousel, but I'd rather wait for a nice monthly giveaway/exclusive to come around before buying it.
