It's for the whole of EU most likely. It'll take the sting out of any new release purchases at least, as well as the promo.

asharerin Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 The deal is for everyone. It has been up for about a week now: http://stores.lego.com/en-US/ Scroll down to worldwide store news. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, lets hope that the new releases are still available to ship on the 5th as I hate waiting - lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Val-E Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Dec 14 USA and Jan 5th Europe it would seem, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TabbyBoy Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 I got the email too for 05JAN. I'm thinking more VW Campers, Maersk 3E, Batman Tumbler and RI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yellowtot Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Yeah mainly campers for me bought a load of Maersk in the last sale. The 21301 Birds set might actually sell out pretty quick before the 5th being such a unusual set, and could end up being like the first wave of RI.

Dkc Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 the question is: would anything truly worth buying be left by then? There are so many sets that are sold out, temporary or otherwise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TabbyBoy Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 (edited) the question is: would anything truly worth buying be left by then? There are so many sets that are sold out, temporary or otherwise. If any sets have delayed availability, you should still be able to back-order and LEGO should honour the 2xVIP price. I've always had back-orders fulfilled even though it can take a while sometimes. I actually still have a Horizon Express on back-order and CS say that I'll be getting it eventually. Whether it's old stock or a new production run, who knows? Edited December 12, 2014 by TabbyBoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eyebrow40 Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 I guess that's a good opportunity to start uploading PS and other exclusives which might retire in one year. Which sets do you guys think will go EOL in let's say one year from now? those are on my list for 2015: PS, TB, T1, TOO, Simpson house, DS, ewok village, 10240, EEE just pure speculation, not more!

Guest TabbyBoy Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 I see that the 60062 Arctic Ice Breaker is selling at a premium in the US as it's out of stock there but, we can order 10 max in the UK still. But, knowing LEGO, they'll drop the quantity. This could be a dark horse set as I've not seen this non-exclusive discounted anywhere.

This set is a Toys R Us Exclusive in the USA and LEGO Shop at Home is out until 12/27. TRU is generally out of stock but I found 2 and bought at $120 and sold at $185 within 24 hours both.

grackleflint Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 (edited) For my local Lego B&M, it was this week. I was there last weekend and there were none. I hadn't see any for months, probably the whole year. Then I go in on last night and see a shelf of EEE's.

teamhappyfrog Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 exactly, I found one that was a return on the last Points day around black friday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LegoSteve Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 I'm going to be honest, double VIP points really doesn't excite me at the moment. Everything I want from them is out of stock right now and you can get 10% off on TRU gift cards at cardpool right now which is the same thing. I may just pick up some Falling waters at B&****** at $57 this weekend or just hold on to my money now so I can buy even more sets that I want when they become available after the holidays.

Inzane Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 I'm going to be honest, double VIP points really doesn't excite me at the moment. The fact that 5% is the normal, and 10% is somehow "special" is kind of lame. Did we even see triple VIP even once all 2014 calendar year so far?

Ciglione Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 I also got the email. I thought it was cause of my birthday. So now I know everybody got it I feel less special. I have two questions: 1. Can we expect a nice sale/promotion on boxing day? 2. What will be the promo in January 2015? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
