​Second line translates to:

There is a problem with the recipient's mailbox . Try sending the message again . Contact helpdesk if the problem persists .

I suspect they may have underestimated the demand and the mailbox is full. I guess you guys will just have to pony up some cash and make an eligible purchase. (or try again later on this evening).

I hope you guys keep talking about this.  I keep forgetting to enter.

​Don't worry... move along, you're not missing anything here.

​I'm sure some folks scripted this and now face a ban for being too eager, so I have that going for me, which is nice.

 

Looks like the emails are going through now.

I remember yesterday going through the Lego website on the customer service section, and there was a blurb about how last night for a few hours there would be problems because of some update they were doing.  It included issues with VIP members, signing up new people, etc.  So I bet that's what the issue was for most of you talking about it.

Every time there's a contest like this, I always wonder if making a purchase gives you a better chance of winning.
Or the odds are the same?

Supposedly the odds are the same.  You get an entry whether you purchase or email.  Essentially, there's no better chances.  I don't think Lego cares if you bought something or not.  In this case, you get up to 30 total entries.

When me and my sister were kids I remember she thought the same thing. One time she decided to order about 20 random magazines from Publishers Clearing House because -- she said -- "You'll never win by doing the free entry".  We still didn't win. And after my parents found out she, specifically, lost.

 

Don't forget to keep entering daily. I haven't missed a day. Helped that I set up a reminder.

But do you have to purchase something everytime/everyday you want to enter? On Lego Germany is states you have to buy something from the DC Comics line to be able to enter.

​I think the free email entry only applies to the US and Canada. Their T&C includes the following clause

"Alternatively, to enter without making a purchase, send an email with the subject “Bat-Pod” ...."

​Giving "contestants" a chance to win without making a purchase ("No Purchase Necessary") allows companies to run giveaways without running afoul of the criminal laws geared towards illegal lotteries. Pretty complicated stuff but at it's heart, unless you're running a lottery through a legal entity, it is against the law to make people "pay to enter a contest" (they call it "consideration"). I am assuming that it how it works in the US, that's how it works in Canada.

Lotteries must legally return a certain % of the proceeds to the people who play... if LEGO holds a giveaway contest where only a purchase made you eligible, how would they satisfy the condition of giving a certain % of the proceeds back to those who entered?

I think this also applies to the UK. So not sure how Lego is getting away with this lottery!

unless the requirement to be a VIP member to enter makes it legal?

Thanks for the reminder guys.  I emailed my first entry today.

My wife just got an email stating she has won. Crazy, she gets all the bennies, invite to to the vip early holiday specials in her name, wins bat pod contest....  life is good. Anyone else get an email yet?

Dang, that is awesome. Keeping my fingers crossed still. I did get an email for an exciting banking offer from someone in Brazil, looks legit.

I wonder if all the emails went out in one shot or if they go down a list. Does it say anything in your order history?

Will do. I think we'll actually keep this one.

Nothing showing on the order status page.

Their email did state they will provide a tracking number once the set has been shipped.

 

 

 

I received an e-mail congratulating me stating that i was a "provisional" Winner...whatever that means.
