Diabolos80 Posted June 4, 2013 Posted June 4, 2013 My best deals were a clearance from my local supermarket, they had a bunch of LEGO's a 50% off to empty their shelves. Picked up 3 Technic logging trucks as well as a 4x4 Technic crawler all at half price I'm not one to usually go around calling bullsh*t on great deals... But to my knowledge, Lego does not supply Technic sets to supermarkets. Maybe you're in a different country? Again, no offense is meant. Unless you're lying lol. Quote

Diabolos80 Posted June 12, 2013 Posted June 12, 2013 Sounds like some sort of theft involved on his part. He might be a Lego employee. They get decent discounts. If he bought those sets at 50% off and needs cash now, he's still making a bit of profit. Plus, most of those sets are exclusives. Probably harder to steal from the Lego store than walmart. Quote

I don't think he's a Lego employee as he seems very much older then the average person working there. I don't know what type of connection he has but he seems to carry mostly exclusive sets. I asked him if he has more and he said his guy will let him know by next week of new inventory. Check my gallery of some of the exclusive sets mentioned that I bought from him. Quote
Etan Posted June 12, 2013 Posted June 12, 2013 A tower bridge for 192 and a haunted house for 144. Quote

@rtisan Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 Today I would say! 7 Epic Dragon battle (5 with near mint boxes, 1 with shelf wear, 1 with minor crease) for $50 each. I`ve never been so happy to drop $365. Quote
Celes Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 You just blew my mind with that deal! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HY-03vYYAjA Is that movie good? Im tempted to watch it after seeing that img used as a meme. Quote
TheOrcKing Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 Is that movie good? Im tempted to watch it after seeing that img used as a meme. If you're into trippy horror films with a bit of camp and the usual blood, guts, and gore; sure! You have Michael Ironsides doing what he does best of being a mental badguy, a lot of mind control and other things throughout, and even a Scanners duel around the end! It's a real David Cronenburg cult classic! But that's just me. I love this stuff! Quote

LowestFormOfWit Posted June 18, 2013 Posted June 18, 2013 Wow. I knew Atlantis bombed, but at that point why even charge you money to take them? Quote
roxio Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 Wow. I knew Atlantis bombed, but at that point why even charge you money to take them? Online pricing error by Tesco which they honoured. Quote
