The main Daily Deal thread that has been here for so long is without a doubt dominated by US deals and discounts.  Canada pokes in there from time to time and then of course an occasional deal from a European region makes it's way in there.   Obviously this does not really work well for non US regions and we want to try and fix this.  This thread here will become the go to place to post deals for the UK, European countries and for now, just about anywhere else until we see the need to give a region another thread if it takes off.  We completely understand that it would have been futile or intimidating to throw bits of information for German deals in a US dominated thread and we think will allow all of our Non US members to benefit from each other's discount and deal knowledge.  We will do our best to get deal alerts in this thread as much as possible.   We hope this becomes as successful as the other thread for everyone.

Yes, except that none of the sets you cite have been around for as long as SOH has (and we won't waste internet space about TB). And Lego wasn't such a global phenomenon it is today (investment-wise).

You can tell who the flippers are when they talk about Sydney Opera House being a slow seller post retirement. I'm sure Eiffel Tower, Taj Mahal and Statue of Liberty were slow sellers as well when in production. Landmark sets are timeless, that in itself should tell you it's always going to be collectible.

So.... what would anybody's pick be from this list?

Depends how much discount you get. If it´s 25% off plus 2xVIP plus GH then EV all the way for me as SOH has too high a price point in Spain (320 euros). The Mini is another intriguing option if it pops but I just don´t see that happening and if it has a T1 lifecycle, forget it.

The others can all be got much cheaper elsewhere.

We also need to see if the offer is applied to all countries this time, except Holland, of course. if it´s in Ozland then that´s a good start.

Looking at the EU early VIP-only sales 1 week prior to Black Friday l actually feel a bit like TLG is making fun of me. Don't wanna sound ungrateful but a FIVE PERCENT discount on select sets (of which there are a whopping 9) does not even earn the title "Sale" imo. Apart from that there's Gingerbread House and a 5 % discount on all orders over 125 Euros. To be fair, they did not really advertise the "Sale" itself big time but focused on the free set, 5 % discount and Wall Calendar.

does anybody know how the double vip points work? when placing an order of 150E I see the free gingerbread house but the added vip point are "normal"

 

I think there is no double point from shop@home order. Only from stores ?

Europe seems to have the short end of the stick on this, no double points

The TLG wise men say that only fools rush in to get free Gingerbread Houses. It´s much more profitable for them to give away free plastic via a cost capped set than allow discounts or more VIP credit....

Other say TTTT

lego dolphin cruiser 50% off at Amazon UK - limit 1 per customer

Comes to around €50 including shipping to The Netherlands. Still €30 cheaper than the MSRP of €80. I think this set will do well after retirement, so taking the gamble.  

Ghost, Kylo Ren and AT AT are at 73, 87 and 97 euros respectively on Amazon.fr

Not great for investment but fair for a personal build.

The Ghost set would need a higher discount for me to become interesting as an investment. Not sure about the demand for this set post retirement, like you said as well.

I have two AT-AT and will keep it that way. Hopefully TLG won't make a new AT-AT set for some years to come.  

Well, if it retires now then 73 is an ok price but I think it will stick around. On the other hand, Amazon have been discounting a lot of retiring sets recently....

Well, except that Amazon.fr adds additional shipping costs to The Netherlands (Amazon UK does as well, while Amazon DE has free shipping to NL). So the Ghost set would turn out to be ~ €80 instead of €73. Less discount, less interesting.  

But anyway, I agree with you that it will likely stick around till mid-2016 before it goes.

So it seems I'm the MyToys.de man around here
Then here's another one for ya:

42025 - Cargo Plane 79,99 € - 15,00 € (New Customes code: GESCHENKEMTS) - 2,00€ Newsletter discount (at the end of the order process) + shipping = 65,94 € (-45% of RRP)

And I#m not getting tired of posting the 75055 - ISD for 104,99€ and with the above listed Codes you'll get it for 90,94€ (-30% of RRP)

Edited November 24, 201510 yr by Chillreign
ISD

But @Chillreign, you can only use that new-customer code once, right? So if you have already used it last week or the week before, then the offer isn't really that good now. Or can that code be used again, and again, and again on subsequent orders? 

By the way, I received a Gutscheincode for €5 from MyToys.de in my e-mail. Don't think I'm going to use it, so if anyone wants it, PM me.

Ahhh, they only check the new-customer on unique e-mail address, and not on delivery address. Good to know!

At least that's what I know.. I would be careful anyway, don't know how they react when they see 20 Accounts on the same adress

Personally i let them ship to nearby friends or family, too

Then this is another possibly interesting deal at MyToys.de:

75094 Imperial Shuttle Tydirium - €79,99 - €15,00 (New Customer code: GESCHENKEMTS) - €2,00 Newsletter discount (at the end of the order process) + shipping = 65,94 € (or €70,28 including shipping to The Netherlands). (36% discount on MSRP of €109,99)
