If you've sold it at a decent price that you're happy with then no (whatever happens), :). 2 Quote
Guest TabbyBoy Posted February 11, 2017 Posted February 11, 2017 I sold half of mine this week for cash at a price I was very happy with. The rest will be listed in November unless there's too much competition. Quote

Is 850 sales in just over 2months on eBay impressive or just about the norm for a new set. Quote

I saw you sold 8 for £190 on the selling thread,decent price at about £23-24 each.Did you keep 8 back because you think these will rise again for Christmas 17. Quote

Yes, as they may rise again by Xmax '17 unless they are re-released. The guy only wanted 8 otherwise I'd have sold them all but, they're his if he calls me back ;-) Quote

To be honest, I can't be bothered the sell "lesser" freebies (like that damn parrot) that are worth £5 or less, so I just lob them into shipping boxes at random as sweeteners for nice buyers. I've even given Snow Globes and London Buses away to BP members who bought Red5 and R2-D2 off me. Quote
Captain_chaos Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 Just received an email from Lego, saying that this set will be free with any £60 + purchase this weekend.They must have found a glut of extra stock or something. 3 Quote

Free snow globes in JULY?? Reminders of X-mas (particularly from retailers) in the middle of summer is a big pet peeve of mine. 1 Quote
Shewie Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 I thought it was some fake spam on my inbox and then I realized that was straight from LEGO, it's been a while since I've had such a wtf face expression after reading the promo T&C for snowglobe in mid summer.. 1 Quote
Guest TabbyBoy Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 It may as well be Winter with the dreadful cold/wet/windy weather in the UK right now. I've hardly seen the sun in 2 weeks! Summer started off so well..... It would be nice if 21309 returned to stock, but I somehow doubt it. There's nothing else I want from SaH. Quote

t_mafia Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 Looks like this is just in UK. Here in the US the piggy bank is still added as the promo item. Has anybody in US seen differently? Quote

I'm interested to see if LEGO Shop at Home will allow stacking with the Piggy Babk. 1 Quote
