Got myself the T1 Van...Always wanted to have this. LEGO LEGO Shop at Home rule: You will only be credited with the VIP points when LEGO has shipped the item and has received the payment. If you were signed in as VIP, then you will only get the VIP points after the order has left the Warehouse and is on its way to you, provided you paid through Credit Card. And take 24 hours as well before they show up on your VIP points balance. If you weren't signed in as VIP member while you made the order, just contact customer service and they will retroactively credit the VIP points to your balance. Provided the condition of the aforementioned LEGO LEGO Shop at Home rule is fulfilled. Edited October 3, 20169 yr by Haay

Besides, the ones that have, probably wouldn't care about the minimum purchase prices.

October 3, 20169 yr I wasn't planning on buying anything right now as was waiting for double VIP, however seems like alot of items are going to back order now. Think I might go ahead and order some things i think will be good qf for xmas.

Only if you were planning to order sets priced higher than €200 (or equivalent in GBP) then the double VIP is worth more than the €10 direct discount + 5% VIP that you get now (until tomorrow evening).

Is it only double VIP over €200? If so will definitely buy now then, I'm trying to not buy any exclusives as goes against my plan.

No, but right now you've still got the 10€ code. Once 2xvip starts, the code is no longer valid so it's either 2x vip or 10€ off + 1xvip. 2xvip is essentially 10% discount so it's only better than 5% (standard vip points) and 10€ combo once you get above 200€. For items less than 200€ it's better to get them now.

The 10% code only works once by the looks of things and based on what's happened to a work colleague of mine they limit it by IP address. A work colleague of mine is thoroughly annoyed that Lego won't let her use the code despite the fact she's not placed any other orders. I'm guessing because we're on the same wifi network it classes my purchase and hers as the same household. Lego being too smart for their own good, she's ready to tear them a new a###hole seen as they won't explain how they've come to their conclusion.

I think it's impossible to buy true "exclusives" anyway as every Tom, Dlck & Harry are selling them also. The last ones I recall are the Mars Rover & Research Institute.

I was able to use it twice (at home and at work) with the same user name...

October 3, 20169 yr Yeah I had a second order canceled but as I say someone else in office tried to place an order after I told her about the discount code and her order got canceled despite her last ordering anything in June. She explained that to Lego but they've refused to reinstate the order but not given any explanation as to why either. Are resellers such a threat to Lego that they're prepared to annoy genuine customers?
October 3, 20169 yr Holiday train ordered but will have to wait till November as the Power Functions motor is oos, I'd hardly be building it before then anyway though

Well the AT-ST is backordered... but the other filler stuff (keychain) and the bus are in warehouse so I guess it worked?? 3 minutes ago, Fenix_2k1 said: Yeah I had a second order canceled but as I say someone else in office tried to place an order after I told her about the discount code and her order got canceled despite her last ordering anything in June.

October 3, 20169 yr Haay thanks for the info about the VIP points (I'm a newbie ) the first time I logged on to the website they showed the Swiss site..I had to change region. Furthermore when I paid with creditcard it seemed a non secure website, I saw no lock icon in my browser.
October 3, 20169 yr About 20 email notifications this afternoon. Must be quite a good day for deals in Europe! Oh wait...

October 3, 20169 yr And let's face it, this thread is a lot easier to watch than the ones that have 90% US centric posts even if they are about sets I may want. Am I really bothered what the seal numbers on SC sets TRU are shipping in the USA? Edited October 3, 20169 yr by thebrickdad
