Smyths also do vouchers from time to time (£5 to £20 off coupons).They did quite a few coupons last year which you could use instore and online. If you want to buy from Lego you can wait until they do double VIP points or a good promo set, and just sell the promo set to recoup some cost. High probability Slave 1 will be around till at least end of the year, tie fighter looks looks like the more likely set to retire next. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Likely be a decent SW offer given the 40th anniversary. With VIP it should compare favourably to the Smyths offers. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CollectorOfLegos Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 I plan on picking up another one on May the 4th to build for display. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then again LEGO are doing their best to crap over the wishes of adult LEGO SW fans being stuck in a set re-release holding pattern and UCS playsets so maybe America might get another Revan or TC-14 while we get that weak FO Stormtrooper again.

LegoXotic Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 I finally got my UCS Slave I last Saturday. It was so much fun to build it and it looks fantastic. Not planning on selling unless i need desperately money. This is a keeper. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slatesbin Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Sit tight until May 4th,that's what I'd do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amrandazz Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 What magic have you Americans used to get this below RRP for your collection (particular annual sales, GCs, etc)? It hasn't budged on Amazon per camelcamelcamel. The only thing I can think of is double VIP or a TRU sale that includes this, which none probably do.

Even at their inflated prices, it could be had for a good discount (30% or more) with coupons that were still around, TRUTH, gift cards, etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emazers Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 When it showed up in Toys R Us stores it was $199 just like it should be but now they raised it to $240. When it was $199 I got alot of them for about $120-150 with the 20% tru Coupons and rewards and gift cards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will probably end up picking it up on May 4th from SAH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a manager at the local TRU willing to give the 20% off during Presidents day, but without using my TRU points, and it would have cost about 192 from their inflated prices. They had two at the store, but they were spider cabled, and so the boxes were dinged quite a bit. The best raise.com gift card % at the time was about 6.7%, so I thought about it for a few minutes, walked around the store, and then decided to buy about 400.00 worth of other sets that were retired. I'll probably regret that decision later if the 2015 boxed sets don't appreciate at the same %, but on the same token, i'll be able to sell those sets much sooner.

Voltron Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Now available in John Lewis: https://m.johnlewis.com/lego-star-wars-75060-slave-i-bounty-hunter-ship/p/3170591 259 in stock for reference. Usually in UK, UCS sets only are available in one of the 3 shops of TRU/ Smyths/ John Lewis. But this set is also available from Smyths. Not sure of it means anything but thought I post anyway.

Baragon Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 I just got back into Lego a few months ago and picked up $200 in TRU gift cards at 20% off before realizing how much they jacked up the price on this set. Tomorrow they are doing 15% off your purchase and with rewards points I can get it down to $185. Do you think this makes it worth burning the discounted gift cards?It also seems like TRU hasn't been inflating prices on the new sets, so I could save the gift cards for the new snowspeeder.

It's much better than retail plus tax but-and maybe it's because I can get it at that price-I wouldn't be buying it for more than $150-$160. It's a very nice set though in my opinion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a very nice set though in my opinion I only paid $160 for the gift cards, so in that sense I guess I'd come out okay. This one would be for my personal collection. It is also tempting to buy it at the Lego Store on May 4th for the R2 poly bag, but these gift cards are already paid for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
