Hi. I was curious as to what the October 2013 offers might be. I am assuming its 10% in VIP rewards. So debating 10% (if happening) vs the September offers .

 

Sorry, where did you hear this? 

I have just gone onto Amazon.IT and went through the ordering process for TB, selected a UK delivery address and it accepted it right to the last screen. If I had confirmed it, delivery would have been

I suspect Amazon will have to ship within the EU as it is in the free trade area.

Got a LEGO Shop at Home order today, and no Lego store employee polybag. Did get another VW freebie, though. So wonder if the Lego employee is only for orders from countries with the brick and mortar store...

I was thinking the same, though our orders did get shipped 2 weeks ago. Who knows what back flips Lego will have done in that time frame.

Indeed. I do have another order placed on October 1. We'll see what happens with that one (which is now enroute to me).

Tell that to the Spanish Amazon who wouldn't take my order to the UK and others on here who couldn't get acceptance from Amazon France or Italy to the UK. Are they messing with us. Some people are getting orders and others aren't. As I have already said, when I asked for clarification why my order was rejected from Spain they couldn't / wouldn't give me a satisfactory answer.

Are they being rejected after you press the Confirm button, or won't it let add the product to your cart.

I ordered a Sopwith camel earlier from Spain and I swear it was shipped from the Milton Keynes depot.

It was the Sopwith I tried to order. I could do everything up to picking my address and it comes up as not being able to send to that address. My TB from Italy went through no problem a few weeks back so I'm really confused. Of course I tried to see if Amazon UK could help me but got told "We only deal with the UK" in broken English. I'm missing out on good discounts.

Just a thought, I live in Belfast, Northern Ireland. I wonder if that has anything to do with it?

It should not make a difference, NI is part of the UK. My experiment with the IT site and it let me choose a UK delivery address. Did you try a different set as an experiment. Obviously don't hit the confirm button if you don't want it :)

I'll try another site this evening and report back with the details.

Ok, I just went on to the French and German sites and there were no problems with my order. So if they work ok and Italy is fine, then it seems to be just Spain who don't want my custom and money. The state their economy is in at the moment you would think they would happily take every Euro they could get. 

Have there been previous winter mini exclusives? What's the thought on these? flip fast like other exclusives or hold for awhile?

Last year, they released 3300014, a free boxed set. I only got one unfortunately.

 

BP price is currently

Christmas set is available to Australians at LEGO Shop at Home. Happy to cash in some of those VIP points!

Yup ordered my first with a couple of Deloreans. Some are already on eBay at approx

how many times does Lego to double VIP points in a year?  will this be the last one for this year?

 

also what are you all buying to get the double vip this time around?  big sets?  which ones?

Seeing everybody getting a lot of exclusive sets, I have a question regarding the double VIP points also, isn't double VIP calculated out to be like a 10% rebate?

However I remembered during Black Friday last year, LEGO Shop at Home (US) offered 10 % off entire purchase plus a free Christmas set.

My question is why not wait till Black Friday to get the discount immediately? Or does the Black Friday discount last year excluded these exclusive sets like the coupons?

Or maybe we are even not sure if Lego will still offer this kind of discount this year?

Thanks!!

Yeah double VIP is basically a 10% discount. It all depends on where you live, we don't get black fridays over here anyway. I took the opportunity and got 690 VIP points added to my 245 balance so it totals to about 77$ worth of points. I was planning on stocking up on a few VW campers next month anyway...

I am debating ordering the Vampyre Castle or the Haunted House for this months promo. I am assuming I should probably order the Vampyre Castle first as it might not even be around come Black Friday?

I'd go HH as it's rarely discounted.

I was planning on doing that due to the double points but I am a bit concerned that the Vampyre Castle won't be available when the next winter set promo starts.

 Well, it is showing as retired in the UK now.

Just thinking, for my second double points purchase this month, should I get a Barrel Escape and the 2 small Christmas sets for

The Holiday set 1 of 2 is no longer available on LEGO Shop at Home in the US. Have not seen this mentioned elsewhere, apologies if a duplicate. If you were waiting to the last minute, looks like that was too long and in store is the only option. The Clone Lieutenant still shows up in the cart.

It appeared on my FB order I placed yesterday.

Question though, anyone know what they are doing in November?
