LEGO VIP Insiders/GWP Discussion

[Billy Brick]

Maybe they decided it would be a customer service nightmare for all the unhappy folks who bought early and didnt get or were confused about no getting the promos and double vip offered a day later.

good point. but then, they probably should have thought about that ahead of time.

Up now. Lol, 7 access codes in my email . . . and no indication what code goes to which set!

 

[$20 on joe vs dan]

sight is working for me, I was able to load a code and get the discount showing.

SO;

the play would be to wait till DOuble VIP Pts in about 8 hours

plus the GWPs

BUT there is the real risk LEGO runs out of the sale items.

Does that about sums it up?

[Captain_Obvious]

Oh jeez, they picked the absolute lamest rewards to point discount: cards and a sticker set. Hopefully we get more point discounts at midnight.

I reply/forward the emails to myself and change the subject so I can easily find which code(s) I want to use.  Very helpful during the mad rush times like tonight.

Check your points history... rewards redeemed.  It will show what you redeemed for and the code.

[exciter1]

Looks like World of Wonders is in Rewards again for 2700 points. I already redeemed one, so was surprised to see it back.

This may be old news.

[Pseudoty]

Remember for those of you who sell codes that supposedly with “Insiders” this is no longer allowed per the T&C and you will get your account banned. 

[stackables]

Codes only work for 1 item correct? Might be tough to add enough to get the gwps. 

[eliminator]

Seems like everything is back up and running. I took screenshots of the redemption codes in the (likley) event that something gets messed up when they email the codes to me. 

[Chormeister]

Looks like maybe it’s down again. I just went to the site and the page will load, but all of the places where the rewards should appear are blank 🤷‍♂️ 

[Chormeister]

I tried logging out and logging back in. Now it’s saying this: We're currently in the process of building new rewards. Stay tuned for more soon!

This is always a fun time of year.  With three modulars on their way out, I expect there will be a bit of a frenzy on those and some will get sold out either this week or next.  The Assembly Square members price isn't bad, although it's been out in the market for 7 years so im not sure how great on investment that will be especially over the next 3 to 4 years or so.  Personally, out of the 3 retiring modular buildings, I think police station probably has the most potential since it was only out for 3 years.  Sets that were out for that long usually hit the 3x from rrp mark in a few years.

Maybe holding rewards was not a technical glitch, but a "business decision".  Not to be a conspiracy theoroist.

anyone know, if ordered now, when it will ship to west coast (CA)?  I am traveling all next week and I don't want to have to worry about boxes sitting outside.

I live in the interior west and I almost always get my sets within a week.

I’m going for the police station with a bunch of pick a brick minifigures pieces that’s already in my cart, and then I’m doing a second order for the haunted house.

I will say this, LEGO is very talented at finding new ways to F-up.

That checks out. My attempt tonight at GWPs. ha And the "play a game" link wouldn't load.

[fossilrock]

Took me about 6 minutes of waiting in the que, but I was finally able to get my orders in.  Yay..
