Aussie sales! Share the news of LOCAL sales!

So how'd you go, get your camel? What did that turn out to cost? I think it's a cool set (not that I've built mine yet!).... -

For those who haven't picked up a MF Zombies set from Big W for $58 yet, or don't live near one or live in the shopforme free delivery zone, you may want to check out their daily blitz, as they have the zombies set for $56, which is 20% off RRP. http://www.shopforme.com.au/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=34_115&products_id=689 Edited for iPhone typo -
Review Monster Fighters 9468 Vampyre Castle
DrWeevil replied to Artanis I's topic in LEGO Action and Adventure Themes
On that note, I've ended up with two Vampyre Castle sets - and now have a dilemma of selling one off or combining both into the one castle - has anyone seen any photos of this being done anywhere! Wouldn't mind having a idea of what it could look like to see if it's worth keeping or I should recoup some money and sell my second set off.... -

Yup! I have it sighted in front of me right now - I received it in the post as part of my shopforme Monster Fighters Collection order :P My weekend is sorted - Im hoping to build these 7 puppies and the full bunch of Monsters Studios sets I've been saving, and create my mega monster display.... -

Well seeings shopforme's group bulk buy offer ends on the 5th August I'd say it's going to be shortly after then - sooner in stores perhaps? -
For Sale: Modular, City & Classic Town Sets...MASSIVE LOTS
DrWeevil replied to TypoCorrecto's topic in The Bazaar
"Please do not post suggestions or comments about my sale. If seriously interested, please PM me. " Sorry, did I miss the memo saying Eurobricks has stopped being a forum for discussion and became a no-fee pseudo-eBay website? If you don't want people to post their comments on your thread pay the eBay or Bricklink fees and sell your stuff there? -

I also wouldn't mind having some of that info posted here, and for this thread to 'officially' cover release information and sales available to Australians (online and in store), but it'd be annoying if it became a thread full of people going on about their shipping/order updates... -

Fishpond like to put out the impression they are, however they are in fact a New Zealand company: http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fishpond.co.nz Which is why you don't pay GST on purchases: http://www.fishpond.com.au/helpdesk.php?question_id=117 And is also why the ACCC haven't been able to do much about their extremely dodgy sales practices. -

Gah! How many times does it have to be stated guys?! This thread is for LOCAL AUSTRALIAN sales only. Amazon and Fishpond are *not* Australian websites/businesses. And yes, Fishpond is not Australian. Feels like a broken record... -

It's not an exclusive line so they probably all will be selling them. The zombie set however is an exclusive that will most likely go to TRU (pretty sure it's a TRU exclusive in the states). The Haunted House may not be as widely available. -

It actually works out more like 28% as it's the 20% off then another 10% off that reduced price, not the first up price I think. That's how it's worked before... -
This same old, same old dross about pricing again? And it's not even ON TOPIC! I came here to read about this set, not more re-hashed pricing waffle.

Shopforme are going to sell the Monster Fighter 7-set bundle for 25% off (bumped up to 30% if 30+ do the deal - though I wouldn't rely on this). For those who are planning on buying the lot and have the money to do so straight up it's a pretty good deal, and brings the cost very close to the US. If they're decent they'll do the 30%, so it'll be like paying US prices. Anyway, worth a look if you're in the market. http://www.shopforme.com.au/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=34_115&products_id=621 (by the way - I have absolutely no affiliation with them!) Edit: the Haunted Mansion RRP has changed from $300 on their site to $270. -

The usual Big W price is actually already lower than the Aus RRP which according to Brickipedia is $89.99. The US RRP is $60. So yep - very good price for Aus. -

This seems to keep happening, so just another reminder that all discussion about purchases from online retailers OS should be posted in the appropriate forum thread. I think we've been warned many times by mods about this... -

It was printed with the address label on the back - a $10 coupon. I haven't bought anything from Myer (and therefore with the myer one card since the mid-year toy sale last year, so I suppose they're right - it has been a long time! The only restriction applying to Lego is that you have to spend over $10, relinquish the voucher and have your Myer One card there - but that's it! Think it's worth a walk down at lunch - hopefully combine some exercise with a good bargain. I'll just have to figure out a set I actually want from Myer! -

So I just received a Myer voucher in the mail that is valid until July 1 - which brings me to my question - do we know what date the Myer Toy Sale starts? Obviously I'd rather wait until the sale and use my voucher then if possible! -

These aren't being released until mid-ish August, so they won't be anywhere here. -
Buying LEGO from other countries on-line stores
DrWeevil replied to Siegfried's topic in Buy, Sell, Trade and Finds
I don't go in for LOTR but that seems like a decent buy. I'm just hoping they get in some Monster Fighters sets -

Quick question: is the Super Heroes Funhouse set at $74.95 worth it? Probably the cheapest it'll be available for here in Aus but I'm still not convinced it's worth it at $75 (TRU with a $10 premium on aus rrp - 25% discount)... Thoughts from anyone who shelled out for it and is picky about what they spend their Lego money on? Or who has seen it in person? I cant help but think it looks a little anaemic, but it's the one set I don't have in that first wave so.... -

Shop for Me have a few decent prices in a Scratch and Dent sale - if you don't need pristine boxes. - VW Camper $127 (25%) - Batcave $85 (35%) - Marvel Quinjet $85 (35%) I picked up the Quinjet - unlikely to see that cheaper anywhere out this way (or even from OS) -

Thanks Bro, I looked at s@h a couple of days ago but it wasn't up yet. Edit: I see now, you can see the RRP but it's not available yet. -

Does anyone know how much the Zombies set from the Monster Fighters series is going to be here in Aus?
