Furious_george Posted August 1, 2018 Posted August 1, 2018 Halfway through August 1st and I’m not seeing any promotions on LEGO Shop at Home. Am I looking at the wrong calendar or is LEGO just being LEGO? Quote

I just got another $0 list and FVF offer from today till the 5th Aug, its almost a once a month guaranteed thing at this point. 2 Quote
Furious_george Posted August 2, 2018 Posted August 2, 2018 Lucky you. Last FVF offer I actually got wasn’t targeted and was the only one I’d received for at least 6 months. Sometime in the past , I have angered the eBay gods. Quote
Amac Posted August 2, 2018 Posted August 2, 2018 Big W. Just got the Ghostbusters fire house for $199. That and helicarrier (and I presume others) on heavy discount as well. It was not on shelves but "out the back" I had to ask the entertainment gut about the sets. He didnt know they were heavily discounted. Guy who scanned it couldn't believe the price. This is now 4 Big W's that I'm aware of having the big lego "out the back" on heavy discount. It hasn't been advertised, you have to ask what they have "out the back" and cross your fingers. 1 Quote
Alucard1982 Posted August 2, 2018 Posted August 2, 2018 Good job mate.Keep it on the DL, don’t want it migrating to Ozbargain. Quote
Amac Posted August 2, 2018 Posted August 2, 2018 too late I'm afraid, someone already posted yesterday (ozbargain) by the look of it. Quote
Furious_george Posted August 2, 2018 Posted August 2, 2018 Yeh it’s there. Looked at my local yesterday- no deal. Interestingly , the 20% off deal which was to start today had already begun instore. I made off with a kings ransom of 2 squashed pteranodon captures for $20 each. Still not sure why...... ? Quote
Furious_george Posted August 2, 2018 Posted August 2, 2018 $79 Star Destroyers at BIG W if you can actually find one.(SD , not Big W). Quote

Holy f@ck. I just called my local and got them to put a firehouse aside for me. What a bargain! 2 Quote
Furious_george Posted August 2, 2018 Posted August 2, 2018 Nice work mate. Jungle drop 60162 is also on clearance. $99 down from $198. Retirement imminent too. 1 Quote

Well looks like i all the Jungle Drops were gone to the two Big Ws I went to. Last night I called another store and got them to put aside another Firehouse. I picked em both up and they both are a bit shelf worn. No holes in the boxes but they definitely aren't for the fussy box collector. One of the Big Dubs called me this morning. to see if I was still buying the set today. Then in store she said the person on the phone last night shouldn't have honored my phone hold. She then berated me and said that "we could've sold this ten times over today". I was perplexed as to why she would care. I said "Well, you are getting your money now." Who knows, maybe Big Dub are so cash strapped they needed that two hundred bucks yesterday. Quote
Furious_george Posted August 3, 2018 Posted August 3, 2018 (edited) eBay one of them “no box , sealed bags” and that will more than likely pay for them both. Bingo bango one free Firehouse. Like the Jungle Drop set but the box is huge. Postage from deepest darkest WA would be pricey, so I left them. Edited August 3, 2018 by Furious_george Quote

I don't buy many larger City sets But the boxes on the Firehouses are good enough to keep em boxed. The seals are good too. I'd be mad not to keep one for myself. I am def a fan of the film but never considered the set due to price. Quote
Amac Posted August 3, 2018 Posted August 3, 2018 Yesterday I also picked up 3 X 70632 Quake Mech (Ninjago) for $69 (Lego price $160) each from local Target. They were high up on top shelf with yellow discount ticket, covered in dust. Not sure if a local store price or not, maybe worth doing price check if you come across in Target. Large box is my only concern for resale but huge discount = win. Im having a good week, I also came across a series 18 minfigures box at supermarket with 3 figures left and 1 of those was the policeman! Mind you I probably felt my way through 20+ boxes over the last month without success looking for the cop. 1 Quote
Amac Posted August 4, 2018 Posted August 4, 2018 sorry in was Kmart not Target, my bad for the cheap Ninjago. Quote
Amac Posted August 4, 2018 Posted August 4, 2018 Resistance Bomber 75188 down to $99 ($180) at Big W. I got the star Destroyer for $99, thank you for the tip Furious G (normally $230, they wouldn't take a further %20 off for me). 1 Quote
