lightningtiger Posted March 8, 2013 Posted March 8, 2013 I saw some in the BigBuy in Springvale a few weeks ago, and their prices were RRP. They are flogging accessories etc too for more than what Big W or Target are selling them for. I better check Enfield then......but they sell everything at least a few % points off R.R.P.......
Rare White Ape Posted March 8, 2013 Posted March 8, 2013 If anyone is interested, K-mart in Southport on the Gold Coast still has bucket loads of the SW Planet Series Cloud Car and they're down to $8. It might be the same for other K-marts as well. A good orange piece battle pack if anyone wants that many orange pieces.... and that many ugly Bespins to hang up or use as chew toys for your dog.
lightningtiger Posted March 9, 2013 Posted March 9, 2013 If anyone is interested Galaxy Toys on Goodwood Road have in stock some of these for 39.95......
lostdriveway Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 Galaxy Toys seems like a good place in Adelaide I need to check out too next week! Lucky its pay day the day I fly down!!
nivremis Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 Galaxy Toys seems like a good place in Adelaide I need to check out too next week! Lucky its pay day the day I fly down!! It's not bad, but personally I never expect to get anything cheap there.
lostdriveway Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 It's not bad, but personally I never expect to get anything cheap there. It would more be parts and particular items I would be hunting for!
lightningtiger Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 It's not bad, but personally I never expect to get anything cheap there. Trust me, some of their prices are reasonable.....plus they carry Brick-forge products too.
Artanis I Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 If an independent place is selling that set, it wouldn't be exclusive to any of the major retailers, right? So maybe Toyworld etc will have it? Just noticed how many stickers that little set has
OzBen Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 I just got a Target catalogue in the mail. Buy 1 toy get 1 50% off. The page features some super heroes, star wars and friends sets. 76005 daily bugle showdown $64 is the most prominent ad.
Darth Malgus Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 sounds like a good deal to get some of those smaller sets that I am after. Thanks.
Xyver Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 Ok, I know this is not about an Aussie Sale, but it is specific to us Aussies and didn't want to start a new thread just for this: I put in an order from Shop@Home on the 19th Feb, it says shipping date was 21st. It has not arrived yet and there is no tracking order number showing up on my order history page - previous orders have had numbers show up straight away, even though no details are available. Has anyone else had any issues with S@H delivery taking more than the specified 13 business days? all prior orders have taken no more than 2 weeks total to arrive. I have just sent in a customer support email, but thought I'd ask here if people had experience similar issues. FYI I ordered two Palace Cinemas and the winter village cottage, not sure if that would cause extra problems or not.
TanTile Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 A little info I have Just found out from a friend who works at a Coles express store... Tomorrow at their head office there will be a fullsize F1 race Car made from Lego to promote something to do with the Grand Prix here in Melbourne, apparently Coles express will have some sort of Lego Promo going... more details as I get them...
lightningtiger Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 BigW has TMNT, SW and Friend's advertised......except they are just their normal shelf prices.
jonwil Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 I suspect the Coles Express offer will be the same Shell Ferrari sets that are currently being sold by Shell in other countries.
shawn_low Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 I suspect the Coles Express offer will be the same Shell Ferrari sets that are currently being sold by Shell in other countries. They are decent sets but depends on how much they cost and how much fuel you'll need to put in to buy ONE polybag. Some countries ran a 'one polybag a week' promo. But seeing as we're close to the F1 race in Melbourne, I'm not sure how that would work as the event would be long over by the time the 2nd polybag hits Coles Express. Lol. I'd like if they just allowed us to buy a full set all in one go.

Nice way to calling me a liar I'm only saying what I've been told! if you know and seen my posts in the past I will only post when I have something to Post! there is nothing in it for me to lie... since you do have a "family member" there, how about you give us all the details then hmmm.... we shall see in the end if I'm right or not and will wait for an apology... Jeez the nerve of some people Edited March 12, 2013 by TanTile

Jeez the nerve of some people Whoa whoa.To be honest, as an onlooker, I never thought DrWeevil was calling you a liar. It seem like it's more excitement about it than not believing you. Whichever the case, I'd like to get a set of the Shell Lego F1 polybags!

Considering your particular items have most likely come from Denmark and not Sydney, I would imagine you'll be waiting longer than if you were ordering something that had been available for longer. It's only been nearly 3 weeks. Are there any public holidays in that time? I don't think I've received an international order from S@H within the 13 business days, but I'm probably 1 day slower than most due to location.
Darth Malgus Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 sweet, my little fella would love them, might have to get the Grand Parents on to it also!

Artanis, when I ordered the Haunted House on day of release, it took less than two weeks to arrive, so it would've come from Denmark too. I've had a few orders of modulars, all received withing two weeks. The website says 13 business days for delivery, its now 15. If it came from Sydney, should be no more than 2-3. Other people I know have ordered the cinema around the same time as me and received them already.

Brickus Posted March 13, 2013 Posted March 13, 2013 Let's get it straight, ALL orders from LEGO Shop@home come directly from Denmark, not Sydney or anywhere else, just directly from Denmark. If it helps, I ordered the Cinema on the 14th, it wasn't dispatched until the 19th and I received it on the 4th. It also seems odd that you did not receive a tracking number, for the past year all my orders have come with a tracking number. The only thing I can suggest is to call LEGO customer services to help resolve your problem.

More details... six to collect, one each week starting Monday, $6 if you Spend $40+ on V-Power fuel or $8 separately It's Great to see that Lego have offered this here in Oz for once. I cant remember a promo like this since being a kid in the 80's, Hope we get more like it!
