Waited and hesitated on an,order of 100.  No choice now.

 You can get 100 at target. 

https://www.target.com/p/lego-174-ideas-women-of-nasa-21312/-/A-52946275#lnk=sametab

My decision has now been made, thanks for all your posts ;-)

Available at Target. Limit of 99 per order. I only ordered ten for now. Tabbyboy and Waddamon can have the rest. ?

this set is being heavily promoted on some popular "girl" blogs which is going to end up driving stock outage at least in US.  my optimism is returning.  when i told my wife it was on A MIGHTY GIRL blog, her face went flat like i was telling her jacoby and meyers was on the case.   buy a few more was all she said.

That’s what a friend said who just collected 8 from TRU in UK. I pick up my case(s) on Friday.

Yeah, we mentioned that a while ago. Gingerbread House all over again. For me those are non sustainable demand bubbles but great for the flippers out there. Probably the most money to be made on this set ever is if it sells out now.

I'm in for 2.  I used my $10 VIP points on the order as well.  Hopefully this set does well.

I got 3 from LEGO. I spoke to CS and they let me order 3 for the free delivery, but “don’t make a habit of it”.

But why is this limit 2 when RI and Exo were limit 5?

you, such a distinguished hustler - and having not more than ONE SINGLE account for LEGO e-shop..:D..

Limit at SAH is 2. Doesn't qualify for the 24in1 set. Admittedly last year's 24in1 set was hard to sell on.

when I got mine two, I also didnt qualify for free shipping in Europe.. Previously I used to put in the basket some stupid wrapping paper (1,50 USD) that was the CHEAPEST thing Lego had online.. now.. even the paper is gone.. so I had to settle on some totally ridiculous batman keychain for cca 2 USD.. still better than to pay like 18 USD per shipping.

your famous Lego plant next door with employees that gives you high five' every morning won't you cover?

Target makes this so easy it feels like a trap but I'll bite.  In for 54.  Hopefully they'll move quicker than my Teddy Ruxpins that are collecting dust in my garage.  I still have 2 RI's so I might pair them together.

If there is an avenue for bulk purchases, I’m curious why it hasn’t sold out. More concerned than curious ....I’m in for 75.

So the hope is for resellers to clear stock from every retailer, including Lego and then flip to an insatiable public? Mmmm....

Of course, the same goes for every nice new set. I’m not flipping as the market is already flooded. I’ll hang on for another 2yrs as I did with the RI sets. LEGO would’ve sold out if the limit was higher. JL have already sold over half.

Did you call them? They helped me out.

But why buy now and at full retail? Future supply issues (assuming you're after 100's) and low chance of discount?

back in stock at walmart.  the drama continues.

Greed.

Ppl are thinking same scenario will apply with this set as have happened with Apollo where many considered themselves to lost deal of the year not qfll'ing them early, understimating initial interest on other markets. They dont want to find themselves in the same spot again almost half year later. Thats why complaining about low lego purchase limit is visible here so broadly.

more like flashing back to Research Institute where they were selling for $100 for the few days after release on amazon after being featured on front page of nytimes.   5x the msrp making saturn v look like a joke.  i personally sold 5 for $100-119.  one was sent to a buyer with an incredibly rich address in beacon hill neighborhood of boston.  then like 3 months its back in my mail box - says buyer never picked it up or something.  they never contacted me for their money back either.  that's when i knew i was dealing with a different breed of buyer selling on amazon.

21110 RI is settling at 3x RRP on eBay in the UK and I'm still getting £30 cash easily locally for mine. Not bad for a £14.40 buy-in (2x VIP and promo sets). I was ordering max 5 back-to-back and LEGO never picked up on it. I'd do the same with 21312, but I'm not paying postage and missing out on a promo by ordering only 2. Response was HUGE when NASA Women were first rumoured so it can only succeed. I've already ordered a "nominal" amount of them.
