iahawks550 Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 Can someone who has firsthand knowledge fill me in on what exactly is sold at Lego Outlet stores? Is it slow selling junk, damaged stuff? Any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mos_Eisley Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 It's the same stuff at the same prices. Only difference is they usually get damaged sets that will sell for 10-30% off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quacs Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 Doesn't sound like it's anything worth making a trip for. If you part out, it could be a good resource to get sets at 30% off. POs don't care about box condition... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mos_Eisley Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 They don't have damages all the time. They get shipments randomly as they become available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fredrick_louis Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 If you look at this FAQ on lego.com they say they do not have any outlet stores. http://service.lego.com/en-us/helptopics/lego-stores/factory-outlet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpinemaps Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 Also might be good for personal stuff. I picked up a DC on WH, for example. Box was a bit trashed, but that's fine - it's for my daughter to put together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toy brick salvage Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 Go to LEGO shop @ hope and get a list of all the shop world wide, just a click away. They are helpful when you are sick and tired of getting your LEGO Shop at Home packages with dings and dents, you can hand pick them. And yes Discounts! The stores have set aside a small section for damaged, discounted, and close outs. I was able to purchase all (two cases) of "the rock band" Good luck!

toy brick salvage Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 An "Outlet" store is another thing there are stores in the South, but they handle everything. Sometimes they have some LEGO s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@rtisan Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 Pick a Brick is the major draw of Lego retail stores. No product there that you can't just get online with free shipping, except for the free monthly builds if you`re into that sort of thing.

I go for the sales. I have found sales on various sets and "sold out online" sets that are not available on the website. I got my 8 4x4 crawlers at one store, whereas online they likely would have been declined. I have bought various polybags and retiring sets at the store when they weren't available anywhere else.

Anakinisvader Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 One time, about 5 years ago, I took my family to LEGOLAND California. In one of the buildings they opened a boat load of sets and had a MASSIVE pick a brick free for all. You paid by the bucket. My daughter got a bucket of stuff. Not sure if they do this anymore though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
