Seems to be time waster season, approx 1 in 6 of my orders lately have been non paying bidders.

Getting tempted to put immediate pay back on

What’s the advantage of not having immediate pay on?  

It’s a psychological thing, people are my inclined to purchase if they think they are in control of the transaction.

Also people like to add items to their cart to maximise coupons/vouchers.

I’ll leave it off for the time being, but normally flick it on around September to maximise the Christmas rush (cuts out failed sales in peak periods).

Destiny's Bounty 70618 $99 at Big W (normally $260 @ Lego) 

You will be doing well to find one of them in store. 

About to say the same.

luckily I live in a area with very little AFOL action. There are 5 on the shelf. Hoping by pay day some are still there.

Far out man , layby  them. Better yet , get one for me.:)

Yeh , I’d grab the lot. That set has not been anywhere around me in months.

went back in today and laybye'd 4 of them. 

Does anyone know if Big W will sell unopened boxs of minfigs? With the 20% discount may be worth it perhaps, not too sure?

My local Big W will see unopened boxes of minifigs, just a matter of popping down to the layby counter. BUT they won't layby boxes of minifigures. Yours maybe different. I'd call and ask, as my local Big W doesn't have any HP minifigs.

Bunnings has clear packaging tape; 24 rolls for $20. Same length and width tape at office works 6 rolls for $9.

Got the rolls and tape applicator thingo pack a few months ago. That tape thing is a lifesaver.

So that Lego Store eBay banner is back, and it works now! But it's not really a Lego Store per se, more of a link to search all the "Authorised Lego Reseller" stores.

Hey guys, nice to be back. Almost forgot my password its been that long! Just caught the tail end of your discussions with some serious lego discounts on Ghostbusters stuff and the like. In the East of Melbourne, Big W shelves stripped clean of harry potter products. Small castle was dumped at $119. I do understand there will be another shipment landing at one of the Major shopping centre stores close by. What's your take on the new range? I was a dedicated collector of the last series. I'm thinking the quiddich one could be good. But also leaning towards the new fantastic beasts suitcase. The large castle I have not seen anywhere yet.

Not a series I’m interested in personally , but I think the Harry sets all look pretty good. Retail supply here will probably be limited , so should help values in the future if investing/Christmas flipping is your thing.

 

I’ll be quite curious to see what the Xmas killer will be this year, generally all themes dry up to pump out more pushed themes.

I don’t think HP or JP won’t be them

Just look up the movies yet to be released. They generally drive the lego market around Xmas :).

 

DJ’s having a sale. Falcon was there at 20% off but seems to be gone already.

The so-called second shipment of harry potter in Big W, only produced two new boxes of Newts suitcase on the shelves. Price approx $55. Almost $14 dollar saving with 20% off all lego. Tbh, with the new movie release and this being a unique new set. I think this will do very well around Xmas.

 

Don’t discount the 5% GC as well. They come in handy

Drag in a woolies or big w employee and you will get another 10% discount  on top of that using their rewards card.

Gah! Hate putting up with the incompetence of eBay’s offshore CS.
