The Joker1 Posted June 28, 2012 Posted June 28, 2012 SW sets now back at S@H UK. (though maybe not for long?) ...lotr soon perhaps? star wars
llb Posted June 29, 2012 Posted June 29, 2012 snip Thanks for the info. I think I may end up paying just about UK RRP if they put on some extra charges, if not then great. I wouldn't usually go to all the hassle but it's taking so long to come out in the UK! Add to the fact Amazon will probably do 10% off all the sets at some point when they are released means i've probably jumping the gun
AmperZand Posted July 1, 2012 Posted July 1, 2012 (edited) Treated myself to Uruk Hai Army from Barnes and Noble and came to roughly £25 after shipping - will let you know about any other charges if they apply. One guy said he ordered Helms Deep and had to pay £27 in custom tax....I guess the box is pretty big though.. Please be aware that if your order is stopped by customs, you won't just have VAT to pay on the value of the goods. There's also duty to pay. And both VAT and duty are levied on the postage as well. But that's not all: the Post Office slaps an £8 "processing fee" on top. I won't comment on the taxes and charges as it's probably against the forum's rules to do so. Incidentally, Argos is taking advanced reservations for the LotR sets for collection later this week. Edited July 1, 2012 by AmperZand
Hive Posted July 1, 2012 Posted July 1, 2012 But that's not all: the Post Office slaps an £8 "processing fee" on top. You guys are lucky; here, it's roughly £20!
Thego Posted July 4, 2012 Posted July 4, 2012 Argos are stocking the Lord of the Rings sets in stores. Picked up a couple of the smaller sets this evening.
martyboy70 Posted July 4, 2012 Posted July 4, 2012 Just saw the thing on Brickbadger about Hot UK Deals. That was my fault lol.
Ash Posted July 5, 2012 Posted July 5, 2012 Just saw the thing on Brickbadger about Hot UK Deals. That was my fault lol. I'm not complaining! We got a nice bump in traffic. Feel free to spread the word any time! It blows my mind how much traffic the big established (not just Lego) discount sites must get given the bump a single post on a single thread on a site that posts hundreds of deals a day brought in. Then again BrickBadger tracks like 1000 prices, CamelCamelCamel, for instance, tracks something like 5 million.
martyboy70 Posted July 5, 2012 Posted July 5, 2012 I knew you weren't complaining. I felt I had to share the link because one of the other members (bless him) had clearly spent a lot of time putting together a list of good buys on Amazon and I thought I know somewhere that does this so much better so posted the link. http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/lots-amazon-lego-deals-lego-city-3221-big-truck-13-99-delivered-more-deals-inside-1256510#post14917708
tbroyd Posted July 6, 2012 Posted July 6, 2012 Visited the Milton Keynes Lego shop this afternoon and amongst the reduced items they had was the 3677 Train set reduced to £118. Not a set you can usually get cheap so I thought it worth mentioning, the other reduced items are probably cheaper on amazon
buddy Posted July 8, 2012 Posted July 8, 2012 Lego S@H have the 10215 UCS Obi-Wan's Jedi Starfighter for £46.49 instead of the normal price of £94.99. Link. ~buddy~
SilentMode Posted July 8, 2012 Posted July 8, 2012 If you haven't heard, Westfield London's (Shepherds Bush) LEGO store has S4 and S5 collectible minifigures in one of those yellow boxes, for £1.39 each. I'm going back later today for their PAB wall, which has 1x8 and I think 1x2 bricks in White.
quidditys_shore Posted July 9, 2012 Posted July 9, 2012 not strictly a sale, but 8097 slave 1 is back in stock at tesco direct for £60. i think it's going to be going OOP soon as the stock on tesco seems to be hit & miss & there doesnt seem to be many places selling it, even on amazon its marketplace sellers at £90!
The Kid Posted July 9, 2012 Posted July 9, 2012 (edited) Spotted a couple of deals at Tesco. Ewok Attack reduced to £18 and the Endor BP at £7.97... populate those forest moons! TK Edited July 9, 2012 by The Kid

Zilcho Posted July 13, 2012 Posted July 13, 2012 Any news on LotR yet? BTW Ash, I love Brickbadger! It's so helpful!
Ash Posted July 14, 2012 Posted July 14, 2012 Thanks! 21st July at Argos looks like the best bet for LOTR Meanwhile.... Hillside House has joined the creator sets on sale. 33% off at Amazon
martyboy70 Posted July 14, 2012 Posted July 14, 2012 The City Airport 3182 can be had for £42.48(nearly half price) by using a voucher as listed here: http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/lego-city-airport-3182-52-48-del-store-tesco-1265565 And Flos V8 Cafe is looking very tempting at £29.99 on Amazon.

Ordered the maersk from there a while back. Wonder what it is with amazon Italy/Spain and cheap Lego exclusives?

S.I Posted July 16, 2012 Posted July 16, 2012 Already have one, but tempted to get a second for parts. Ordered the maersk from there a while back. Wonder what it is with amazon Italy/Spain and cheap Lego exclusives? Probably due to the local economy, probably hard to sell expensive toys atm.
Ash Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 The 10214 Tower Bridge can be had for approx. £124 from Amazon Italy.http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/lego-10214-tower-bridge-only-123-61-delivered-amazon-1266925 I was just coming to post that, thought I had a scoop!
