yannick29 Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Hello, In Europe Amazon Market, many japanese shops sell lego at best price, including shipping. I Wonder how they do with adding shipping and Tax. Do you have the same in US ? Yannick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No More Monkeys Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 They have large presence here in US as well, and as far as I heard here on BP, no one has anything bad to say, but it's not clear how much of experience BP community had with them. General opinion is that very likely amazon will protect you. I personally have no idea how to send stuff back to them, but, presumingly, in case "not as described" or "defective" Amazon will take care of it.

Bold-Arrow Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 There were a nice variety of exclusives this morning ranging between 30-40$ ea with free shipping all from same japanese seller. I'm talking post office , WVC, toy shop, mini modular, pet shop.... They were all scooped up in minutes. I'm leaning fake or stolen on that one .

No More Monkeys Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 But if they are dealing in fakes, wouldn't their rating get destroyed? If they are selling stolen stuff, why others who steal stuff don't do the same? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I said leaning and not sure. Toy shop is a 250$ set, how do you sell it for 35$? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yannick29 Posted February 19, 2014 Author Share Posted February 19, 2014 I checked one of them has its headquarter in Las Vegas. I know lego is expensive in Japan, so th Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I've seen one of them with more feedbacks not looking too fake, selling ewok village for $68. But yeah, I don't see what sort of business model would allow you to sell below cost. I am just surprised Amazon did not block them yet, since there is gotta be something sinister about them... just too good to be good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yannick29 Posted February 19, 2014 Author Share Posted February 19, 2014 Here is an example :http://www.amazon.fr/gp/offer-listing/B007456DSW/ref=dp_olp_new?ie=UTF8&condition=new How can you sell it with free shipping from Japan to France at this price ????
