Tusserte Posted January 15, 2020 Posted January 15, 2020 (edited) Just placed a huge order too. Can't wait! Secondly, print-screen your receipt at checkout and double check it after your order ships. I usually pay with PayPal which has caught a huge issue in their billing department. My past two order amounts got vastly increased when they charged me on shipping the orders. For example, a $1 piece became a $5 piece when they tried to bill me. There's no proof of what the parts should have cost because I didn't screenshot it, and the LEGO order status has magically changed all the costs/totals. Since I paid with PayPal I actually got protected and they blocked the new charge, but if you pay with your credit card I don't think anyone will confirm the new amount with you. Edit: My order today has already changed from $180 to $400. It looks like this $0.07 piece changed to $1.03 wtf Edited January 15, 2020 by Tusserte Quote

jonwil Posted January 15, 2020 Posted January 15, 2020 I will be sure to check any order I place and if anything has gone up in price I will complain. Quote

Highlights for me: - New double-moulded legs (dark tan/reddish brown + orange/black) - The clowns from Hidden Side 70432 - The new printed console tile for Star Wars from 75273 What's the part number for those dark tan/reddish brown dual moulded legs (or what set do they appear in)? 8 hours ago, J4ck said: 6285587 is the new transparent piece from the DC series - £0.11 AAWWW YEAHHH!! Thanks so much! Btw, I noticed that Mysterio's 'glass helmet' has been reduced from around €1.00 to €0.44. Nice. :) Quote

I'm not 100% sure but I think he's referring to the Archeologists legs from the Dinosaur Fossils set (21320) Quote

Correct, that example $1.03 part still says $0.07 if I add it to a new order right now. The value changes after you place the order and after your card is authorized for the original amount. Then you get charged the different amount days later when your order ships. I’ve seen it go up by ~20% on the past orders but never hundreds of dollars like this one. Very sketchy Edited January 15, 2020 by Tusserte Quote

Very sketchy I have noticed a few time on the packing list that comes with the order that some pieces lowered in price but I should really start to check thanks for the info!! Quote
jonwil Posted January 15, 2020 Posted January 15, 2020 I will check my B&P order carefully and if I see any price increases I will be sure to complain to LEGO :) Quote
Roebuck Posted January 16, 2020 Posted January 16, 2020 I remember they had problems with this earlier, apparently not fixed and bullet proof yet So I took a screenshot of the order in case there are any troubles. Lego will undo the error, but you usually have to discover it yourself and tell them A few of the smaller animals have a cheap or decent price, but a lot of them are on the expensive side so I only ordered 2 of each of those. Still hope they will be more affordable on BL, but very few sellers with them there and the prices are extremely high so far. Maybe I am being impatient, but I think thinks are going slow there now, hopefully it has nothing to do with Lego taking over and sellers are reluctant to add more inventory If it has not been mentioned the white frog is for sale now, but no lioness last time I checked..

jonwil Posted January 16, 2020 Posted January 16, 2020 Have the trophy pieces in new colors (from the CNY set) actually been available for sale or have they been "out of stock" since they showed up? Quote
Pchan1983 Posted January 16, 2020 Posted January 16, 2020 Ordered lots of new minifigure heads and new printed parts. The white poop was sold out already but ordered 100 brown poops XD I'm surprised some of the new Ninjago stuff are not even listed. Quote
jonwil Posted January 16, 2020 Posted January 16, 2020 Looks like I should get that order in soon before all the good bits are snapped up by everyone :) Quote
bountybossk Posted January 16, 2020 Posted January 16, 2020 You guys go hard. White poop and the transparent DC fig-stand already out of stock. Placed a second order for all the cool cake-parts from Friends. Also available: Chandler's torso (Friends TV-show set) and Flitwick's hair in LBG. Quote

Maple Posted January 16, 2020 Posted January 16, 2020 Oh no! I was going to place an order and health care, flu, holidays and nice weather kept getting in the way. I never bought all the food and torsos from the Asian dinner 80101 set and now they are all gone. :( Quote

There will just be a backorder wait for them. Just make sure you have the element ids. Quote

You just call up and ask to place an bricks and pieces order? They were all there just last week too. I just see it as a sign I should probably worry more about other things than little plastic tiles. Quote

Once an item's inventory drops under 200, they will grey the item out incase mass orders come in simultaneously. Sometimes, you can call in and they will have some in stock. Majority of the time, on items out of stock, the CS rep will be able to tell you a date when items are will be replenished by. (FYI Lioness is out until Feb 6 incase anyone else cares.) TLDR: Grey'd out can mean "low" inventory as well as completely sold out. Quote

Chilis Posted January 16, 2020 Posted January 16, 2020 Yeeei! So happy, finally. Got many of my wanted pieces so there goes additional $85. Thanks for the heads up! Quote
Exetrius Posted January 16, 2020 Posted January 16, 2020 I don't know how relevant this is since 1) everyone seemed to have placed an order already , and 2) there's at least one website that is far more complete in compiling what's available, but I like share these little personal bricklists - as I like to call them - nonetheless: 2020: 2019 (several reduced prices, and I think a few new available things??): Also, a small miracle happened: I was trying to flip the screen to take these screenshots, upon which my laptop crashed, but when had started up again and Chrome restored the webpages, my cart was still intact!
