DJ

Architecture, VW van, Grand Emporium, Pet Shop, Fire Brigade, Sydney Opera House just arrived <<< I'm waiting for their next sales to get one of these set

 

Toy-R-Us

VW just arrived, but all gone. They said more stock will come in 1-2 week time. 

 

Big W

They're clearing out the shelf of many city sets right now. The shelf was almost empty. Might see something new soon

 

Target

Batman Arkham Asylum & R2D2 were there. Probably about 6 each.

yeah, not working for me as well. Very buggy.

Man , I give up. There’s no escape!

Update. 

Tried all LEGO CS advised- clear cookies, google chrome- still can’t check out. Anyone manage to get it done?

nah, still crap at my end too.

yep - set names aren't matching set numbers, and can't add anything to basket.

Must of met their sales quotas for the month and shut everything down.

Looks like they got the IT boffins that did MyGov to upgrade it ???

Anyone manage to get it to work yet?

edit- nevermind. Actually worked.

Points are in a different spot now. Have to sort of log in seperatey to the vip bit. You should see them in there and available rewards, which are mostly rubbish.

Anyone selling a used Voltron , let me know.

Picked up a 75895 - Speed Champions 1974 Porsche (Horizon 4 tie in) from a local Mr Toys - paid full RRP. It was the only copy on the shelf - and I've no idea whether or not it will be widely available. 

There was $135 after cash back Perisian Restaurants on amazon yesterday for a brief time. I didn’t get any myself but know some who did.

I guess Mr Toys is pretty much means readily available. They are often a good place to visit as they are the last to clear out the turkeys. 

 

I guess 135 is good for a Parisian Restaurant. But is it a good one to flip? Modulars seem to languish on shelves these days, unlike back in 2015 when they instantly disappeared.

Ah bugger - the Porsche popped up on the Kmart website this morning - time to sealed this up and put it away for a year or so.

Parisian Restaurant - beautiful set, but is it every going to retire? Those big boxes, trying to keep them immaculate until the day the set retires, the postage cost and the stress of trusting Auspost to deliver it safely - no thanks.

At the last Lego market I was able to offload a spare copy of Palace Cinema - cleared ~$80 on it. Which is better than a kick in the balls, but there are easier ways to get better returns.

Next Lego market coming up next month - will be seeing if I can sell a Temple of Airjitsu and my only GBHQ for decent returns.

Bugger - won't be able to just head down to Dreamworld, purchase exclusives and sell to people in TAS, SA and WA a day later.
