Same in the UK too. Why why why couldn't it be the Tower Bridge instead? Boohoo! ?

Nope

I have 2, purchased 20% off the retail price. I guess this set will do very well, and not many people are into it.

I have 3 at  max buy-in 180 euros, so that´s 3 more sales you´ll need to wait before you can offload yours!

Agreed. This set could really jump and prove a few know-it-alls quite wrong.

Be sure to check  my retired set performance list next month for the first update!

Still can get this at MSRP somewhere in the wild. Those who knows what's going on better clean those remaining batches. This will be north of $400USD by X'mas. Book it.

Amazon has it at $399. Not third party either, sold and shipped by amazon. What's up with the TRU pricing?

Same as Amazon 

[ChristopherJB]

Too many people were going after the Sandcrawler and EV. Too bad many will miss the boat here and regret it. The demand for this set in China is crazy. Average price on Taobao.com now going at 4000RMB = 580USD. I sold a few to Hong Kong for 450USD plus ship today. Enjoy these low prices while they still exists.

[LegoBro]

This is interesting.  Toy R us was out of stock and price at Amazon returned to retail 319.  Toys R us back in stock now.  Price 399 at both retailers again.  Strong price point.

Fixed....

Was hoping for another amazon discount. I grabbed a few when it was $240. Would like to add one more, may have to do it at 319 if they get it back there. 

[kris_1973]

FYI: Business accounts have it at $310 if you have one or know someone who does.

I wonder what the next large landmark set is to be released and retired before the Tower Bridge retires?

Probably something similarly ugly and poorly done. Stonehenge?  Big Ben?

I think this will be the next one.
