Filip Posted September 4, 2011 Alright, I'll start off by saying that this was a huge dick-move on my side, but I can't really do anything about it now. Basically, I am (or were, more like) into brickfilming a while back, and I had just found this awesome swedish LEGO site on the net where he sold specific figs and parts, kind of like Bricklink. I then contacted him and asked if he would sponsor me, by selling me some figs and such cheap to me if I would have a link to his website in my videos. He happily agreed to this. However, shortly after I recieved the stuff from him, I realized I was getting bored of this hobby. Now, this would perhaps not be that big of a deal, if I had actually paid him, which I didn't. I guess we both pretty much forgot about our deal. I still feel like a douche for this, I really do, but hey, I got some free stuff. The things I got were pretty nice though, specially considering they were unused. A free Robin minifig (not the nice, curly hair) and that slime professor from Agents.

marcobnine Posted September 13, 2011 Just got 10196 Grand Carousel in the mail. I bought it for the list price of CAD $350.00 at the Toys R Us Canada website. I was just browsing the site last week when it showed up as "in stock". As soon as my order went through it was out of stock so I guess that was just the very last set. I opened the box (damaged in shipping anyways) and the contents are perfect (sealed polybags, intact sticker sheet, etc). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IAmWillGibson Posted September 13, 2011 Ummmmmmmm... I can't say I've ever found stunning deals at a consistent rate, but a few have stuck out in my mind. Mostly Value Village scores [which is a second hand store, in case that wasn't obvious]. I got Studios 1354 DIno Head Attack sealed for I think 3 bucks, and Creator 5867 in a crunched but unopened box for 4 bucks. I also found a 3431 2 vs 2 Basketball missing I think 3 pieces and with no minifigs [but it had the instructions] for, again, perhaps 3 bucks. Random other stuff, too, like another Tauntaun. I was very psyched the day I got 8061 Gateway of the Squid for 10 bucks on a Black Thursday sale at Walmart. Best find I think, though, was 8089 Hoth Wampa Cave for 15 bucks thanks to a mis-stickerage. That was the best. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mr Spielbrick Posted November 1, 2011 Today, I strolled into the local Intertoys (a Dutch toy shop chain). Lo and behold, they'd marked the Scorpion Pyramid from Pharaoh Quest down from 110 to 80 euros. Aaaand: there was a 10 percent discount on all LEGO items. So I scored the complete set for only 72 euros! Needless to say, I'm content as a cucumber. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sid Sidious Posted November 4, 2011 I found the PoTC Cannibal Escape at Target for $20.99 (MSRP $29.99). This was when it had just came out too. I saw a sign on the shelf saying the set was $20.99, but i couldn't find the set. I came back a few minutes later and found one left. I think someone returned it to the shelf shortly after wandered away. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fyrmedhatt Posted November 8, 2011 I think I've just gotten the 3677 Red Cargo Train for $66. I bought it from TRU during last saturdays BOGO50 sale, and I was getting both 3677 and the passenger train for $211 after the discount and the $10 coupon as in-store pickup at my local location. Now the TRU didn't have the passenger train in stock, so they basically gave me the cargo train for an insanely discounted price (almost $100 off!), and according to the customer representative, the order for the passenger train was cancelled.
