HandyHand Posted November 9, 2021 Author Share Posted November 9, 2021 (edited) 40 minutes ago, Poncke said: I just bought Titanic at Lego Ireland, VIP discount 5 euro, so paid 624.99 euro, and got the free Coffee Cart. Now I am wondering if I shot my load too early? I've read that there won't be many discounts on this set. But should I cancel the order and wait? It will be around for at least 12-24 months. Maybe the set will go to retail. I know Smyths in Ireland carry large sets like the Millennium Falcon for 800 euro. With this purchase you earned ~ 31 Euro (5%) of VIP points worth, and the free Coffee Cart. If you have enough patience, you may be able to buy the Titanic at double VIP points (~63 Euro worth) and possibly a free GWP at the same time, but no guarantee on that. Personally I have patience and will wait for a double VIP on everything going together with a GWP promo to maximize what I get back.

Poncke Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 Thanks HandyHand, I am new to the Lego/VIP business, so not sure how to get double VIP. Anyway, I will hang on to my set, if I can resist not building it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pseudoty Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Titanic docked today! Will need to sell the 10210 to make room to display it. If anyone is interested I am the original owner it was built once and has been on display for around 10 years in a smoke free but not dust free home. I have the box, instructions and all of the minifigures, sails are in great shape. TBH it is not the greatest build in comparison to the new pirate ship but is a nice display piece. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was worried that if I placed the set on a shelf, it might be too heavy and the shelf collapse over time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmpirate Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 I vote for just adding another shelf. Plenty of vertical space available 😀 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got one. Notably, shipping was free and no sales tax. So that made up for not getting VIP points. TY. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poncke Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 I am such a moron. I had one ordered, then cancelled it so I would order it this weekend to get double VIP, and now its sold out. What an absolute failure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eliminator Posted November 21, 2021 Share Posted November 21, 2021 I will 100% buy one for personal build and display, but not in any rush. The only way I would have purchased day one was if there was some sort of epic GWP. I'm waiting for at least double VIP points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
