john cleese Posted August 28, 2007 Posted August 28, 2007 (edited) just look at the price of this thing Mrs. Puffs boating school. For 393 pieces they're robbing us blind Edited August 28, 2007 by john cleese Quote
ghoulrealm Posted August 28, 2007 Posted August 28, 2007 agreed! It's neither a great nor horrible set, but I would have reservations about purchasing it even at half price. Quote
Starwars4J Posted August 29, 2007 Posted August 29, 2007 Well it seems like all sets these days are somewhat overpriced...I mean that Naboo Starfighter for like $30US? :-X Since this isn't about a Buy/Sell/Trade or Find I'll move this to the theme forum. Quote
Timento Posted August 29, 2007 Posted August 29, 2007 Well it seems like all sets these days are somewhat overpriced...I mean that Naboo Starfighter for like $30US? :-X Well you are still pretty lucky, StarWars4J, in Slovenia it's 30 EUR (and in other countries that have Euro too) which is even more. The AT-ST in my local shop was 32 EUR and in the USA it was 20$. Yep, you're still luckier when it comes to buying LEGO ;-) As for Mrs Puff Boating School... I don't really like any SpongeBob set but this one sure is overpriced. Quote

AMK152 Posted August 31, 2007 Posted August 31, 2007 just look at the price of this thing Mrs. Puffs boating school. For 393 pieces they're robbing us blind Geez that's expensive! Quote
Starwars4J Posted August 31, 2007 Posted August 31, 2007 Well I know it's cheaper in the US but it shouldn't even be that expensive. If I were to look at the set my mind would put it at around $19.99US... Quote
Graynar Posted August 31, 2007 Posted August 31, 2007 Somehow living next to the USA with it's cheap LEGO prices, you'd think Canada would be cheap too. Nope. I'm almost tempted to buy LEGO in the States, instead of paying these insane Canadian prices... :-/ Quote
Lt. Col. Thok Posted August 31, 2007 Posted August 31, 2007 In Canada, its the same price as an X-Wing. WTF?? Lego, get some sense into your head! Quote
john cleese Posted September 1, 2007 Author Posted September 1, 2007 originally i was just going to buy this as a parts pack for the ancor, tubes and those 1x6 slope elements with the arch and some others. I dont care if that idiot sponge bob can drive around in the model, recreating that epic scene on the show, it's not worth $70.00. And that episode was so stupid! >:-( he's an idiot. I mean even after taking the course 500 or so times he still can't get through the course, even with patrick telling him what to do? YOU'RE NOTHING SPONGE BOB! YOU HERE ME? NOTHING!!!! Quote
