  1. I think you should contact the seller right away.Let them know exactly what's going on and ask for their help- they want a good transaction too. It is very unusual for anything to take three weeks from England( I presume) to Ireland.( it could be hand delivered quicker) Best thing is to talk- the forum pages are really a last resort for problems and Bricklink have a massive forum too. Regards Bad Dad
  2. Smyths toys shops have a lot of City lego for Buy one Get one Half Price- even up to the big train sets!!!!
  3. Smyths toy shops are selling off all Atlantis sets - mark down depends on the set and the LEGO Star Wars: The Visual Dictionary is £4.99 is some shops.
  4. And please leave out the comments about liverpool- 96 people died.
  5. No. What an amazingly ridiculous point of view- do you think any one believes you? Lame. It has more to do with a greedy newspaper(by the hugh amount of extra papers they sold) who supplied as little as possible to the distributing outlets- less than 500 per day for all of Northern Ireland -thats a population of 1,8 million.Maybe they thought no-one would turn up. The staff in these shops did a wonderful job handing it out with a smile,in less than 20 minutes most days, then took dog's abuse for running out.So the Sun ( and the news of the world) change their tune ,declare it a great success ,"surprise" everyone with two "extra days" and demanded any unclaimed lego is returned( but there is none in the majority of shops) . Why? -because they will have some of the 2.4 million customers who missed out writing to them after being shafted .They didn't care about their customers -they didn't care about about lego fans and they sure didn't care about Lego. To summarize and be clear- "It wuz the (news international)Sun who dunnit" Bad Dad
  6. I'm interested in 4704 Room of flying Keys 4706 Fluffy and the Devil's Snare Let me know when you have a price.
  7. No such luck for me- Lego shop at Home for UK orders ran out of Figures before lunchtime today.Despite getting the money for my order through the sales person only revealed the lack of figures offered me a choice of any key ring- I told her that I wouldn't have bothered if I knew this- really annoying and frankly mean. So to be clear, in summary- No More Shadow ARF to orders made after midday today.
  8. Bad News. Sold out to orders from UK. Before 12 midday-BST. Nice review just makes me furious that Lego Shop at Home messed up my order. "Shadow" will not be mine.
  9. Bad News. This morning. Ordered sets yesterday but an issue arose with the website ordering that meant I had to call lego- again a problem with the payment which was resolved today-Sales person had forgot to input one part of my card. Now it's sorted and as we wait for the payment to go through guess what-Nice lady tells me they are sold out- no more figures available.( to UK orders) Not happy. Cancelled order. Lost faith in lego shop at home.
  10. Yellow jedi starfighter EPIII without anakin. £5 I'm interested so I sent you a PM. Forgot to ask how you can take payment or postage costs. Bad Dad.
  11. Series 4 on display at Tesco Extra at Newtownabbey-pretty well worked through and felt up But several pristine boxes too Sainsbury's at Sprucefield had a small supply on a strip hanger a few days ago but are all gone. This is a post from Norn Iron -if you don't know then its not for you.

  13. Hi I have 4 baseball players( series 3) -opened bags but not even handled yet- I was surprised to get them, the dot code method let me down. £1.99 each plus postage. For trade I would be interested in Forestmen from series 1. Bad Dad
  14. Kingdoms advent calender already sold out by 2.30pm GMT- bummer
  15. Sainsbury's have lego city sets on offer 3 for 2 . Its all small sets in the store I checked today. And the stock levels were pretty good for Sainsbury's
  16. Sainsburys have 25% off "Boys Toys" which gladly includes lego. Sadly its the usual smaller sets of the ranges they carry but it is a sale Thay have Freeco Speeder™ 8085 for around £18.74 it was an eye-watering £24.99 for a fews weeks now . ( it retails for £19.99 on SaH) This is the only bricks and mortar place that I have seen this wee set- frankly the lego company should wear a mask!
  17. Tesco have V19 for £34.99 . Its not available online but I saw it in-store last night- might be worth a look for other bargains too.
  18. +1 for WhiteFang- great guy and very easy to deal with. +1 for ADHO15 who long long ago send me great lego . Many thanks for all that HP goodness.
  19. Last week Toy r us had Anakin’s Y-wing Starfighter™ 8037. for under £40. Which is painful for me as I had already bought it for just under £50. Pants. Should still be available.
  20. Hi Burman Good to see another Norn Iron lego fan. These guys have a pretty fair reputation ,only 60 feedbacks but 100% good. The chrome gold,silver and copper pieces are awesome. Then I look at the price. Wow. Then there's the" currency conversion" , its a bit steep( for Americans)- XE currently quote 1 euro = $1.46 ( the inverse is $1 =Euro0.68) And don't forget the 19% VAT.It isn't clear to me when VAT gets applied by them . I would assume its added to the total before shipping but I advise you to check before ordering. Shipping looks similar to many other German sellers. Finally my advice. Decide what you would like, then contact the seller directly. Do this before ordering through their bricklink site i.e. don't order then wait for the invoice to show you the real damage. I support bricklink and all the really good sellers throughout the world but some of our european cousins have different ways of doing things. Very different. If you like their stuff and you order it I'm sure you'll get it , it's just how much it will really cost you I would be careful about. Bad Dad
