Available again now. Obviously found another batch at the back of warehouse

It's called "The Dance" for a reason. 

You no like dancing?

Dance with me.

This is usually when reseller scum tries to order 20 but someone in the warehouse notices.

Wish I would have seen this earlier. I just received mine today and the box is all banged up. I would have exchanged mine in that short window!

No, it is retired. There was some final stock because some of us have not realized their invoices...

John Lewis in Reading may have 5 in stock soon as I returned mine this morning. I no longer have faith in this set so they just had to go back. I now avoid modulars as well as Star Wars, flipping discounted sets WITH a 3-for-2 offer is the only sure thing these days.

Tabby, it's time to Lego of this negativity.

[Furious_george]

Yes. You don't like star wars. We get it.

Went to my local Lego store today and noticed that there were no pet shops there. Didnt see the new DS either but saw the display for it.
Ugh!
Another shocker was seeing EV discounted by fifty dollars! This must be a really bad seller for Lego. I have never seen a big set like that discounted. Also the Porsche 911 is very impressive looking in person.

Guess I have been living in a cave for a while that I didn't notice all of this before.

I absolutely adore Star Wars but, not the latest half-arsed merchandise.

Isn't this a self fulfilling prophecy.Set out of retirement briefly because reseller returns sets, in response another reseller returns sets to retailer. Then remaining resellers complain that is still available and think about returning theirs?

[king156]

lol guys its been all of 14 days or so, come back in 12 months you want to invest or do you want to flip, as I sure as hell don't know any investments that give 50%ROI in a few weeks.....cmon cmon (ik some smart ass will come in now and say the bubble is burst)

If you say so. I've changed my strategy and I now "think outside the box" with regards to what I invest in. I just no longer follow the rest of the sheep. Don't get me wrong, I love most LEGO sets but, not for making money. It's time for me to take a back seat.

C'mon LEGO, make your bloody mind up! Is this damn thing retired or not?

Until the next 3-4-2, admit it Tabby you've retired from the game more times than Michael Jordan.

LOL. I actually DID NOT bother picking up my last Tesco 3-for-2 order (Airports, Bulldozers & Deep Sea Subs) as I'm in the process buying a business to hopefully start running in March and that has to be my primary focus. After looking at the books on this business, LEGO reselling just isn't feasible. Tempted by 4 Pet Shops at RRP? ;-)

 

[Crustybeaver]

Yes but I'm going to pass. I haven't bought any Lego for a year and I have enough of these. I'm sure you won't have any problem offloading them to fellow Brits for RRP.

5 sales so far this week on EU ebay. Avg price about 175 euros plus shipping, which is pretty much where it was expected to be.

Power seller prices start at 180, so I guess it should stick at that price for some time.

Still readily available on shelves. Seen in Lego shop, John Lewis and Smyths
