Yahveh Posted December 4, 2013 Posted December 4, 2013 I have made purchases at a number of Australian based stores and have received win-back offers from 2 of them so far. Mighty Ape I made 2 purchases with at the end of last year and about 6 months after my most recent order I received a coupon via email for $10 off my next purchase. Of note is that Mighty Ape have had a number of exclusives go through their site and even had the 41999 Exclusive Crawler set which sold out within hours obviously. I just received today a coupon from Toys Paradise for 10% of my next purchase after I made 1 order about 4-5 months ago. I'm wondering if there are any other stores out there that have similar offers after waiting a long time between orders. Quote
Ted Posted December 4, 2013 Posted December 4, 2013 Ahem, Er........are you based in Australia? I just have a look at both websites, their prices are seriously overprice?! It does sound good that they give you some offers for your next shopping with them but still.....not worth it? Quote
Yahveh Posted December 4, 2013 Author Posted December 4, 2013 Definitely based in Australia. Note that both sites offer absurd discounts on some sets, few and far between though which is why I haven't purchased of either for a long while. I picked up most of the Winter Village sets off of Mighty Ape at 33% off last Christmas and got the Unimog for $200 each from Toys Paradise. Toys Paradise in particular has jacked up their prices to insane heights recently, not sure what's driving it when Myer / David Jones / Shopforme are constantly having sales on lego. Quote
Ted Posted December 4, 2013 Posted December 4, 2013 oh really? Unimog for $200 is really a great steal. Well i guess you are right as the prices are insane, maybe its the Xmas season. Going with Big W, Target, K-Mart at the moment. Sometime Myer or Toy r Us. seldom David Jones i guess. Quote
TheDarkness Posted December 4, 2013 Posted December 4, 2013 Ignoring DJs is silly. Stacking coupons on top of discounts gives some great deals. Quote
Ted Posted December 4, 2013 Posted December 4, 2013 Ignoring DJs is silly. Stacking coupons on top of discounts gives some great deals. I suppose you are talking about the discount code of WELCOME and TREATME5? Well i guess so in that case for small sets they really offset quite a fair bit Quote
TheDarkness Posted December 4, 2013 Posted December 4, 2013 I suppose you are talking about the discount code of WELCOME and TREATME5? Well i guess so in that case for small sets they really offset quite a fair bit Plus they had a Spring code for a further 20 off earlier. Add those to the 20% off sale and you start getting serious bargains. I paid 78 or something for a Pirate Ambush and recently the Palace Cinema for $145. All about the stacking! Quote
Ted Posted December 4, 2013 Posted December 4, 2013 Ah the spring code, seems like we both are early on the website for that. I scored the Palace Cinema for that price as well. Yes all about the stacking. - Looking at the website now, most of the ones i am interested in are already out of stock, i guess next time. Quote
