When you go to your card to check out, it still correctly shows $200 for free shipping though. I'd say it's probably an error. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ted Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 But their term and conditions still state it is $200 Hopefully it remain the same and not gone bonkers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Furious_george Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 I liked the $100 error much better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Out of the Dark Years Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 I really hope they drop it to $100. USA was $75 but a little while ago it changed to $35 spend for free shipping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To increase sales, I know I refrain from buying things sometimes as the $200 limit is just a bit too much. If I feel like I'm having to add something just to get over the $200 threshold I don't bother. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think they will but yep I'd love it if they did. I agree, a new $100 limit for free shipping is probably just wishful thinking but i still think it would increase sales dramatically. I'd be willing to bet so many people dont order because of it considering the $35 minimum shipping charge if under $200. If they can ship to the US free for orders $35+ I don't see why a $100 limit would be such a problem for Australia. The other problem is there are so few items they have at LEGO Shop at Home that can't be purchased at 20% off or better if one patiently waits for them to arrive in Australia and go on sale. so it really makes you second guess ordering through them. But on the other hand when its double vip the $200 limit doesn't matter though, thats when it's really time to cut loose on the big exclusives.

Furious_george Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 Pity the old 2 x VIP are so few and far between . Know what you mean about waiting. I bought the BWE from LEGO for $400. By the time it arrived from its trip around the Galaxy, it was on sale at shop for me for $80 cheaper. Spew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Furious_george Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 Can anyone tell me if we can buy from uk Amazon? I can't find a filter or setting that says shipping to Australia, and every set I pick randomly says no shipping to Australia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazon.de, .fr and .es also no longer post to Australia. It's a real shame as it was an excellent source of cheap sets and VAT was excluded. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Furious_george Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 According to a post bit further down it will be more than that. I'm well aware remake talk happens every year but next year has some significance.... 10179 holders, pooh pooh at your peril ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Furious_george Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 There is 10% off on eBay for selected LEGO sets. I couldn't figure out how to search the sale only, so not sure if there's anything good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
