Target has 75940 & 75947 for $29.99.

Amazon matched on Hagrids Hut https://www.amazon.com/LEGO-Potter-Prisoner-Azkaban-Hagrids/dp/B07Q1K195S/ Limit 3

My biggest gripe is the lack of printed instructions. The largest market for these sets (AFOL's) would prefer something tangible, instead of something online. I realize they can be printed at home, but it's still not the same. Small issue, but I think it's important to note.

I had the same issue with the general list. I ended up creating multiple lists such as My Wishlist, Star Wars, HP, etc. so I didn't go over the limit threshold. I also created lists to help keep track of how many sets I've bought. For example, if I buy a SW set, I'll add it to the "SW Bought 1" list. If I buy it again, I'll move it to the "SW Bought 2" list. Might be a little much, but it helps me keep track of how many sets I've bought from LEGO and hopefully not get orders cancelled due to their order limits.

Target dropped the Vader Helmet to 20% off (55.99) Plus $10 GC. https://www.target.com/p/lego-star-wars-darth-vader-helmet-building-set-75304/-/A-80130444 Hoping Amazon matches soon as they have 10% back on the Prime card as well, on that set. https://www.amazon.com/LEGO-Helmet-Collectible-Building-Pieces/dp/B08NFCW4WY/

here is one of my favorite at at's still have new sealed in the box toys r us exclusive

Picked this up yesterday for $65 off of craigslist ($35 for the Ducati and $30 for the rest). Notables are 42107 Ducati with box and instructions and 79013 Hobbit Lake Town Chase with instructions, box, and a sealed bag. I found two of the figures so far from light digging. I'm hoping the rest of the pieces and figures are in the box. I can already see that the box has some mega blocks mixed in.

I am still expecting that someone at LEGO will just decide "c'mon, can't we at least print out some instructions for these guys".

Danger! Danger! Remember, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. This set is selling for $600-$700 every day on Ebay. Prob more on Amazon. I wouldn't touch this. But that's just my opinion.

😀 lol fantastic. honestly think unless people are buying larger sets in huge numbers that take years, you might as well just wait until its narrowed down every year. then go big. most groupls im in now spend more time offloading non retiring sets to free up cash.

yes 1 for 1 on the atat, it is pretty low for stores, online never know and down the road never know either. Part of the game.

I ended up with the LEGO Modular and Windmill…. The 2 sets I would be ok keeping if resale is not at a good level. I may even keep the modular regardless. Will be interesting to see where these end up, although the wait will be quite long…

Just pre-ordered the Venetian Houses, great set. The bowling alley, lego shop and ruined house look great too, but I think the affiliation and romantisation of the venetian houses will make it a popular set.

don't forget the 2nd rd has double the max units made from the 1st rd (5k to 10k) due to the whiners

The one with returned shipping fees left in my account? "Bought by mistake"

Yeah but Amazon never sold quidditch so it was always a seller created listing. Definitely would be a get in get out deal until Amazon suppresses the listing. Godzilla vs Kong toys are a prime example of that Since summer. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Shopping at kohls is the most frustrating experience in existence. I put through quite a few orders over the black friday sale. Half were cancelled? Half shipped? Every time i got a cancellation they forced me to change my password and that numerous login attempts were made and they suspected my account was breached? I was able to spend 30% of the kohls cash before my orders began being cancelled (following the same password reset process process above). The kohls cash seems valid (which is different than the permaban I received on an old account of mine). May just go to the store and buy 10 dyson vacuums and call it a day.

Hi, Unfortunately, amazon requires invoices from an authorized wholesaler. Receipts wont do.

I suppose they want to sell the 10th anniversary set up until the next anniversary set is available?! LEGO has no clue how to treat an "anniversary set"....it's ridiculous that a 10th anniversary set is still available almost 6 years later...SMH

Ouch I was really hoping at least one of these was retiring Q4 2022.

Thanks, appreciate it!

Thanks! I bought a Lego store since it’s nearly sold out already Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

the packaging on prior ones looks nice, there are no printed instructions included, and there are not many sold on ebay. that said I have never owned a modular and I bought the lego store. it is really cool. it could be worth selling but I would recommend only buying if you personally want and love the set. even if you leave it boxed in your collection. there is a bricklink discussion thread you can ask more questions in and see who is buying what.

only thing I do the shake test on is my dickens... those didn't have any loose pieces , even the plates were bagged. Bag could of popped though with a few small loose ones falling out.

I wouldn’t put much faith in what any CS says. I’m glad it worked out for you but like Helmet said you could have easily lost all your money, something to consider for next time if it comes to that ( hopefully there isn’t a next time )

As of right now, 4 of the sets have reached funded status. Only the LEGO Store is approaching sold out status (still has a little while).

so anyone know can you order a set and if it doesn't deliver for a year call lego and cancel the preorder if you decide you don't want the set ?

Got the Kenner AT-AT for Christmas in 1980 - probably my favorite Christmas gift of all time (followed by G1 Megatron, and later Omega Supreme) Very tempting to get an AT-AT for Christmas again 😁

True true. But this is a pre-order, not a backorder. Not sure what happens with pre-orders and points normally.

If you order something on backorder on double vip day, you still get double points. Just not sure if the promo applies to this program. I'm guessing not but would be nice to know.

I was thinking the same. But since your card doesn't get charged until the set ships... I'm assuming that's probably when the VIP points are processed?

I know we're getting VIP points. What happens if the sets are still available for VIP weekend double promo? I'm on the fence for the Venetian and double points might sway me.

Agreed. Hate that instructions are digital and that we haven't seen packaging yet from round 1 🙁 Also curious how many of those 4000 pre-orders are for personal vs those bought to sell

Yes that is something to consider. I'm sure LEGO Youtubers will spread some info of these sets creating some demand. Of course it'll be accompanied with complaints of inflated prices and hate for LEGO re-sellers 😄

I got announcements from Bricklink a few days ago and today when crowdfunding went live. But you'll probably have to allow that in your Bricklink contact settings.

Harder with FBA vs FBM. Had a buyer try to scam me on a Treehouse earlier in the year. (FBM) They returned the set with some random lego (maybe 20 pieces) and some River rocks. For that transaction here is what I did. 1. Notify the buyer via message in Seller Central that they will not get a refund b/c of what they returned. (keep it polite and professional.) 2. Process a restocking fee and include images of what was returned. (in this case the restocking fee was 100%) 3. Create a Case and add images of returned items. (In my case rocks etc.) 4. Wait while the Amazon rep files a fraudulent buyer report.

We are excited to announce that we have in stock: Lego Super Mario Character Packs 71394 Series 3 FULLBox Case of 18 Minifigures for $83 LEGO 71394 Super Mario Series 3 Minifigure Full Collectible Set of 10 for $55 Shipping is FREE within the US. ($25 for box and $10 for sets internationally.) Please PM with your PayPal email address, and we will invoice you promptly.

Pretty easy to look up.

Good interview with Chris Stam lead Speed Champions designer for at least the last 3 years. He also did some of the original 2015 models like the Ford Raptor. Sticker talk is towards the end.

I've always taken a "pedal to the metal" approach with my buying, but I never saw the sense in not ordering as much as a store would allow me to order out of some sense of beneficence towards the collective good. Sure, that type of ordering causes retailers to change their policies, but it's not like my holding back is going to make a huge difference when there are plenty of other people out there taking the same approach. The buying latitude that we get from any retailer at any point in time is inherently temporary...nothing good lasts forever so take full advantage of something that's good when it's available. Has anyone been banned by WM since they instituted the 2 unit limit? I was quasi-banned before that went into place with orders being cancelled randomly, but had no problem with any orders with WM after that new limit went into effect.
