any cheap deals for R2-D2 (10225) around?

i think we have a winner.... http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Lego-Star-Wars-UCS-Millennium-Falcon-10179-Numbered-Collectors-Edition-New-/330691817394?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4cfec4afb2

what was the list price? i had a look now and its at 230 euro. i would definately jump on at 195 delivered.

only 9,996 more to go!

worth a shot...(signed)

now moved onto the super star destroyer... http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=150671405615&ssPageName=ADME:B:SS:AU:1123

both removed already. maybe ebay IS learning??

i have seen a few on US ebay go under $200 so i dont think that is unreasonable. just have to find someone willing to ship. cant understand sellers asking for more than rrp when the set is still being sold by lego?? also cant understand why it costs about 1/4 of the cost to get something shipped from the UK than it does the US. the search will continue....

i was hoping somewhere closer to $250...

looking to buy the lego imperial shuttle 10212 but i refuse to pay the over-inflated local aussie price. could anyone help me out as to where i can pick it at a more reasonable price?? even the bricklink sellers in the US are selling above rrp and are asking $80+ for postage. cheers

well as someone who doesnt own this set and could never afford to at todays prices, i have my fingers and toes crossed it will get re-issued. i wonder how many sets people bought and stored without building?? if i bought one, i would build it and display it.

they just keep on coming. dodgy pricks. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Lego-Star-Wars-Millenium-Falcon-10179-NEW-/150657430532?pt=UK_Construction_Toys_Kits&hash=item2313e1f404

new scammer. already 23 sold at 169.99 pounds!! http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260844185235&ssPageName=ADME:B:SS:AU:1123

bummer. just cos i am a good bloke i will take it off your hands. i'll even pay for shipping.

you would think so. i will be spewing if it turns out legit! i have been scanning ebay for months looking for this set at a decent price.

i was looking at the imperial shuttle to see how much it came to with postage and the vat removed.

count yourself lucky you dont live in Australia then!

cheers. handy tip. still says the item cannot be sent to my address. im not sure how u guys are getting it to work?

just been looking on amazon.fr and amazon.de. is there a way to translate to english (other than google translate)? also on both sites the set i added to my cart could not be sent to my address (i think that is what the page said). am i doing something wrong?

pretty keen to get the star wars shuttle 10212. any cheap prices overseas?? i refuse to pay the $450 retail here. cheers

VAT is removed for purchases within the EU. 19% i think it is.

Amazon France? wont that mean you will have to pay french rrp which comes equates to about $570 usd at the moment??

not sure. maybe we should start a group buy :laugh:

$699.99 at the Australian lego store $399.99 at the US lego store and the aussie dollar is stronger than the US! looks like i will be importing.

yeah i search ebay most mornings. everyone seems aware of the market now so prices have skyrocketed. think i missed the boat on these 2 sets. i will just pray for a re-issue or might even part them out on bricklink. cheers
