Anyone else having issues paying with PayPal?

It accepts my card purchases no problem.

Might be late now, but if the complete order button doesn't work just wwitch the payment to card and then back to PayPal again. That fixed it for me.

I have a medieval market village sitting around do you guys think with some changes I can build into a Diagon alley street with this thing. Just curious to see someone else’s opinion

if memory on that set serves, I think it's a better fit for the small town near Hogwarts..Honey Dukes, Hogs Head and the like

Didn’t think about that. I’ll look into it

Actually, I have read every Harry Potter book twice. But I grew up with them.

The books started coming out in my last year of college, and the movies after I was into my professional career.  It was just my wife and I; it would be a few more years before we had kids.  It hit in my mid-20s, so I just wasn't the target audience for it.

I saw all the movies but only read a few chapters from 1 of the books. 

It is ok.  The LEGO sets and the rides at Universal Orlando are based on the movies anyway

 

The Hagrid and Buckbeak Brickheadz aren't showing on SaH anymore.  They could be gone.

confirmed...just tried adding a Diagon Alley and ONLY the set appeared in the cart.

wow that was fast...also who knew the premiere set (DA) would outlast the GWP.

Grand Piano fans beat Potter Heads 

anyway...the over or under on the Hagrid Bhz...I say over $100

Provided it doesn’t go to retail, then yes.

I pulled the trigger on an eBay set at $40. I won’t miss out on this.

That's crazy.  It's got to be just a temporary thing.

Wozers, not even 18hours in? I’m sure they will be back. Or just unleash whatever micro Diagon Alleys they have left from the last big HP GWP.

Can't even go to stores here in CA yet either.  I'll be in AZ this weekend.  Are Lego Stores open there?  Two, right?

The three nearest me in CA are open. Might be worth checking again as a couple just opened Monday after indoor malls were allowed to open again.

Shoot, I was going to order a couple more things. They took down all mentions of the GWP, pretty much, so it's likely done.

I went to recheck my orders from last night (5 total)...looks like they removed the GWP from one of them...grrr😡

Thats because TLG has an army of sales reps checking for multiple accounts making several orders to get as many GWP as possible.

That GWP poof seems pretty crazy.

Well most of the Harry Potter sets that are around $100 are on backorder now. I think all of the newer ones are too.

I decided to only make two orders 1 Diagon alley, 1Burrow when was still available each with a VW promo. Alley on way but Burrow went backorder and i got the email now whole order says processing . so I wonder if my VW promo is enough for them to ship my GWP or if i'm denied.

Anyone bother calling CS to see if still able to get the promo? I’ve had luck in the past....but I’m sure they’re slammed these days!

after the 3rd busy signal I gave up calling

I tried calling them because no matter where I put the stupid code I cant get the member rewards to add...in other words it keeps telling me the codes they sent for the beach van are invalid ...and I gave up trying to actually talk to someone.

Make sure you put the Beetle code in the “Promo Code” box in your cart, not in the “VIP Coupon Code” during checkout.

Make sure you put your reward codes in the “VIP Coupon Code” box during checkout, not in the “Promo Code” box in your cart.

Make sure your codes don’t have any trailing spaces (mine did).

Easy, right? *sigh*

Why cant they just make things simple?
