Was that Amazon?

Yeah, they were doing £6 off the advertised price. Limit was still 2 per account and I didn't have time to set up any more accounts.

I was about to order 3x Po's X-Wing and those bar stewards just hiked the price back up to £68.69 as I was checking out. The second time this has happened within 24hrs. At least I know not to bother with Prime Day again.

I think Amazon must run some sort of pricing algorithm once stock gets low.

They're back down to £44.99 today if you're still looking for some.

Yes, the 3 Camel's just told me. I ordered 2 and it accepted the £10 code for first Prime purchase. Worked out at £39.99 each. I expect them to be gone within the hour or price jacked up again.

In the UK, keep an eye on Argos as they now have extra sets with 1/2 and 1/3 off RRP. Nothing yet floats my boat apart from the 42038 Arctic Truck for £39.99. I have a feeling that they may put other sets on sale and the likes of John Lewis may follow suit. If Argos announce a 3-for-2 on top soon (happened before), the safety catch is off!

With Argos, I recommend Click & Collect as they often use bin liners for shipping and some sets may have catalogue or Padawan stickers, etc.

Surprised to see 75157 with a 1/3 off so soon after release .... Shame they didn't do the same on 75150, I quite fancied that for a personal build.

75157 Captain Rex AT-TE down to 79,98€ @ TRU in Germany.

How do you interpret this? Many unique figures, iconic vehicle (although modified), why do the sales tank on this??

The Ghost and The Phantom also had a rough start. They are sought after now. I think SW Rebels could be sleepers. I bought 3 anyway.

 

Anyone think we should change the name of this thread from Daily Lego Deals to "The odd deal here and there, once in a blue moon" thread?

Has everyone with the ability to reduce prices in toy stores gone on holidays at the same time?

It's too hot for that, we're having a heatwave, it's time for rash decisions.

Anyone in for another cheap Poe's X-Wing, anyone, anyone?

 

Resistance X-Wing  has finally started to drop in price, currently at £64.96 19% off RRP at amazon, not at my buy in price yet, but I think it's price is going to drop alot as not a great seller when compared to POE'S.

Smug B##tard 

You should have posted that in the "You know you're a Lego investor when" thread. As in you know you're a Lego investor when you're on the beach in the Seychelles and can't get off your bloody phone.

Lucky. I took some vacation last week. Weather was not too great. This week it's over 30°C. Figures.

As for deals, I think we've had some good deals so far this year. Although I agree summer sales / clearance seems to be a bit disappointing.

Nice!

Which beach are you at?

My wife and I were there 5 years ago. Wonderful! Cannot wait to go back.

Iron Man vs. Ultron 76029 £5 , Avengers Hydra Showdown 76030 £8.  Boots online.

Seem good value for the figs, if you can be bothered with small SH sets / parting.  

Also half price Nexo Knights – maybe good for parts.

Step away from the shitty small Super Hero sets, down that path leads heartache and annoyance

Nice, but look I'm sat in a hot tub on my balcony over looking the beach in Marbella, drinking champagne, but you don't see me going on about the fact that I'm sat in a hot tub on my balcony over looking the beach in Marbella, drinking champagne, do you?

Guys, can we please keep it ontopic? Getting an e-mail each time you guys want to brag about how fabulous your life is, isn't really all that great ;-)

I've been on a long bike ride, just came home and all the good sets which are -50% at Boots UK are now OOS online. You either have to be quick or know a member of staff at these shops. John Lewis, Argos, Debenhams, Sainsburys & Asda often compete so get the trigger primed.

The Argos 3 for 2 starts tomorrow
