Lego GB is saying Free Item but also £20.99?

They put a cash value on it in case people cancel orders before they've been fully fulfilled. For example, I bought the ECTO-1 and War Buster. ECTO-1 is backordered so I got the Dickins and Teal brick promos with a set that costs £29.99. If I cancel the ECTO-1 they will charge me £20.99 for the Dickins promo.

Any other info on “VIP Rewards Sale?”

May the deals not be with you

I think the not valid on sale items language is most likely to cover items with an MSRP over the threshold but a sales price below the threshold.

I know we got a few things like posters and meh figs, so they can't say there was nothing. But I still feel like they really dropped the ball on that one. Last time they trick me into buying a day 1 most expensive set ever. *Proceeds to click "place order" on UCS Republic Gunship release date*

In store i was told once I would have to pay the list price on a GWP if i did the return. They said I could keep it if i did an exchange for another item.  This was my plan anyways so i just made an exchange and kept the GWP

I'll find out in a few days.  One of the larger items an order was just cancelled because it is sold out (in stock at time of order), which brings my order below the $150 mark.  The GWP and everything else in the order has shipped though.

thanks.  Wondering is it's the same for LEGO Shop at Home...if the GWP has already been shipped then there's the issue of..."can I ship back the GWP instead of paying for it?"...the cost of shipping will likely outweigh LEGO's costs.

premise is that when ordering, the unit was instock but later told OOS...therefore LEGO's fault for me cancelling since will not arrive by Christmas.

You'll be fine. They don't enforce anything if they pull the trigger from their end. It's only sometimes enforced on customer returns. 

I've made purchases online then went to the local store after receiving the stock delay emails. After purchasing in store I called and cancled the duplicate. Got to keep both sets of GWP from both the local store and the online order.

Sooo... looks like 50% off wallpapers, MAYBE 50% off $5 VIP vouchers, and a couple sets 15-20% off...

 

Where is this Book of Monsters...???? Got one from B&N but was hoping to get more from LEGO Shop at Home

So, basically, $10 in vouchers for $5 worth of points? If so, I’m in. I wonder if there’s a limit to the number of vouchers you can use on an online order, I’d like to pick up something next week, and was going to use points anyway....

I think it’s more like $5 in vouchers for $2.50 worth of points.... and usually they limit things in there so my guess, limit 1-2

Correct, it's limited to 1 per person. 

The whole VIP rewards thing has been a joke. Though to be fair, it always has been in NZ/AU.
US/EU tend to get a much better selection - hopefully you get some better VIP deals when they go live!

[Bricks Eh]

how accurate is this list on promo bricks and stonewars....?

I got on and nothing said on sale, but when added to the basket it took 20% off

[elmaslıefendi]

As predicted by @ravenb99 pure disappointment.

[coelian]

Nothing much for me at SAH. I wa eyeing some stuff 30% off at a local retailer but they went poof in seconds. You snooze you lose, hopefully can still pick some stuff up in stores tomorrow.

is this new? I think this is new...

Edit: you know, if they are smart, it will kick you to the back of the line when you complete checkout...
