Quacs Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Amazon.co.uk has Summer Riding Camp for $95 shipped if anyone is interested. Nice deal, C - thanks for sharing! Actually, I'm seeing it for roughly $86 if you buy 2: 114.43 GBP x 1.5 conv rate = $171.65 / 2 = $86 each. That's a great price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grolim Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Just placed a decent order with a local retailer. All these are in $NZ (0.77 ish to convert to US) and represent at least 30% off our usual retail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOrcKing Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 I'm thinking of starting a PAB cup topic where we can share what we bought, like the one on EB... I love that topic Why not? It could be the "Share your Pick-a-Brick experiences" thread under the Building category. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest eightbrick Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Why not? It could be the "Share your Pick-a-Brick experiences" thread under the Building category. Ok, I'll start one up tomorrow... I'm probably going to fill one or two tomorrow I ran out of parts for something I'm building. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonysbricks Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Massive bin of minifigures. Hundreds of them, from all the big collections ... star wars, harry potter, DC comics, indy jones, etc. Then I found THE arm. Then I found THE legs. And I knew they went with the body and the helmet I found before. Yep, a cloud city boba. I really, really hope I can find the other arm. To give an idea what I paid, I could sell the legs alone and more than cover my cost. It's been a good day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tormentalous Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Finally got my DeLorean today. I bought one at Comic Con but I had it signed by some people so I'm keeping that one sealed. Had to wait until places sold them again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fcbarcelona101 Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 If you wouldn't mind, could you give a link to the listing? I'd like to just see exactly who can afford to sell a $400 set for nearly 50% off. If it all works out, great score, FCB! Just got it. Box has damage (as expected) but inner boxes and manual are MINT. Not illegally drop-shipped or anything of the sort, just a pretty good deal it seems!

Guest eightbrick Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 Just got 4 Orc Forges from Amazon.uk Nice. The Lego store and all the Targets near me have been cleaned out it seems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aaronwinship Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 To expand on what Grolim mentioned, I bought 5 of the following: Orc forges for $37 Cdn Weathertop for $40 Cdn Mirkwood spiders for $18 Cdn I bought 5 of each (thats the limit), and shipping was about $45, like $3 per set. Granted, you'll have to add a premium of ~ 25% (for HST and duties), but you're still going to come up a winner EDIT: They may not be crazy deals for the US folk, but for us Canadians, it certainly is!

Polar_Beast Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 My wicked eBay score of 4 old EOL sets for $100 plus $18 shipping just arrived today, perfectly packed in two separate shipping boxes with the LEGO boxes in really great shape! A couple dents and minor warping, but the two 2005 sets are all like how the current battle packs are, with no seals, but rather the perforated things that you "punch in" and tear the box open. And the other two set's seals are all perfect, which I personally value much more than no dents or creases. (Brickpicker values attached) 7734 Cargo Plane (2008) $223 7243 Construction Site (2005) $107 7344 Dump Truck (2005) $75 7631 Dump Truck (2009) $35 Not too shabby! Now I only hope because of the newly released rehash that the Cargo Plane doesn't depreciate, or if it does depreciate not too much Either way, I'll take it any day. Oh, today I also received my 2x Delorians, discounted Mia's Bedroom + The Mini Mech & Ice Cream Stand polybags! Trying hard not to tear one of the Delorians open. Happy day!
