In the UK we only have John Lewis (max 5) and LEGO (max 1) to get these from. That's why this will be gold in the UK. If these fail to sell for RRP after EOL, I'm going to shove one up my arse!

andyposterfan Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 I bought a Saturn in store with VIP card, will they look at that if I try to order another online and cancel the order? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine went throu with transaction on my VIP card with Saturn during VIPx2 on 10th of october so yes, those who made a purchase before online will be most likely affected with cancellation.

Since IDEAS participants can design gems like this, why can’t LEGO instead of resurrecting old sets with no added features or updates? As you can see, I’m into buying again, but only as many 21309 that I can get my hands on. I don’t see the point in buying any other set for profit. This is a dead cert for 2x within months. well. if you have that KIND OF ISSUES with purchasing more than 3 items at the time.. why dont you follow my previous sniplets.. as to the local factory employee who are "willing to sell their kidney for a price.." - in this case WHATEVER you want.. they can get for 50 per cent in the factory store + their margin.. look up the ads at sites such as deti.bazos.cz or www.sbazar.cz I had no idea this ONE existed.. did you (others)? So it was "legal" to submit to IDEAS a project based on a previous company product?LEGO Discovery 7468: Saturn V Moon Mission Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebrickdad Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 Yay, just got my shipped from SaH UK email (along with VIP & Christmnas set). So buying in store doesn't count against the one per household limit :? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebrickdad Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 UK SaH no longer out of stock but backordered to 5th December now... Will that be that last big push or will they just keep on making it? My money's on the latter... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TabbyBoy Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Back in stock at John Lewis, I only ordered 5 as my "contact" is on holiday. I'll simply ordering as many of these as I can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope thay hang on a little longer as I want enough to go with every 21032 WoM set that I have ;-) If there continues to be production/distribution problems, it cant' last much longer - surely? Since 21303 is nearly 2x RRP after fees within a year and was constantly available everywhere, how can 21309 bomb? What would you rather buy... 21309 or a crap set of the same size and at higher cost with the Disney logo on it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While it's not retired, prices will often be suppressed. I remember that WALL-E didn't even exceed RRP while that was OOS and look at it now. Even Doctor Who is finally joining the party. IMHO... 21309 is simply the best value LEGO set ever made - period !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not pair together per se, but as an incentive when the buyer clicks "Buy It Now" when I list 21309 as an auction. For example, listing a 21309 with a starting bid of 1p with BIN set at £299.99 with a free 21312 thrown in. It's a couple of years away yet as I need additional feedback on my new eBay PRIVATE account and these will both "skyrocket" after EOL. I'm in no rush to sell either as both sets are timeless.

Val-E Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Still available for backorder at EU SAH. Seems it is harder to burn through stock with limit 1 being enforced as I guess a lot of people will have had orders cancelled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
