Quite possibly the best deal we'll see on the Snowspeeder at SaH. I'm pleasantly surprised actually as I was only expecting dross like the Arrowhead.
- £135.99
- Free BB8
- Double VIP
- 5% cashback.
Will work out around £100 if we assume the BB8 has a value of £15.
I've been struggling with mine. eBay sold prices have not got near RRP yet, some even under £30. Since this is such a big set to ship I've no idea how people can sell it at that price.
Hopefully it will pick up and at least I've managed to give 3 away as Christmas presents.
It has really dropped on eBay UK, there's one selling now for £202.50. The £3 and then £1 FVF deals haven't helped matters.
I foolishly picked one up just before retirement at a £160 buy in thinking it would be an easy flip for £250+. I'm thinking of returning it to the Lego Shop to get rid of it. Not worth the hassle of shipping such a big set for minimal profit.
I finally picked up Saturn V from SaH.
£109.99 + the promo
-£10 voucher from the catalogue.
-£10 VIP I had in my account.
-£5ish cashback.
They removed the promo from my order as I also used the voucher. After a complaint they are sending the 60 years promo out ASAP ahead of the Saturn V which is on backorder. A shame the promo is dropping in price so quickly on eBay. I think I'll hang onto it for a year or so and see what happens.
Tempted to hop on board this one.
With the promo (probably £25 after fees), £10 voucher, £10 VIP and 7% cashback it seems a good buy in.
I guess this will be around for a while though so will be hard to resist the temptation to build it!
How do Lego tend to respond to damaged boxes? One of my Yellow Subs has a small hole (maybe 5mm) in the front. Worth saying anything? Will I get some VIP points or similar as a sign of goodwill?
Their sets in general are poorly packed but most of the time the sets arrive in perfect condition surprisingly.
