Friction - Logan Central on Wembley road, they always seem to have something on clearance down there, since getting back into lego I try to make a visit to that store each payday as there is generally something there I want. The big farm set that is usually $99 was marked down to $80 they had a bunch of that I left a about 8 tractors there but i did clear out the last of those hoth sets. Big W at Browns Plains had the pig farm for about $48 I think there were about 10 of them there around lunctime. There is also a leasson to be learnt here I went back to kmart to buy a belt in the afternoon and decided to recheck the lego section The Creator firetruck that had a $50 tag under it, I grabbed one and took it to the scanner to be sure, beep and it comes up at $35!! They also had a city helicopter transport set with $48 sticker on it scanned and woot $23!! Moral of the story even though it has a price on it, scan it cause you might pick up a nice surprise!! -

Went for a shop this morning Starwars sets were marked at $25 but scanned at $17, the tractors were marked at $11 and scanned at $7 so that was the Kmart run at Logan, they also had the creator firetruck marked at $50 have one already so passed and they also had the new starwars sets and board games, bit pricey though so will wait for next %off sale me thinks Then went to Target to see what was left, man the store was gutted and I dont think they are going to do much restocking at the moment, they did have the new starwars sets but for $150 for the new slave1 they can keep it Anyways picked up the Train station for $60, the Racers for $14 and the impulse sets for $4each All in all a good shop -

Went to local toyworld and put on layby passenger train and train station, while i was there I asked the lady about a previous catalogue where if you purchased a toy story set you got a promo set with the green alien She said yeah they still had some and people were forgetting to give them out so she had a few, she then asked how many kids i have , i said 4 so she gave me 4 sets for free!! They also have a $10 voucher if you layby more than $200 of lego in one hit, so i said she can keep the voucher if i could get some more of the promo sets, she says sure how many would you like, not wanting to sound greedy I said whatever you fell comfortable giving me, so she gave me another 4 sets!! WOO and HOO -

I picked up that wind turbine set and a galactic enforcer and the midi falcon and the other space police set, some real bargains, when I was there there was a lady trying to find some cheap lego for her sons so I gave her one of the wind turbine sets I had, she said it was too expensive and I just smiled and said go scan it :) She came back with a big grin on her face and her kids were chuffed -

Maybe they sorted it out by then I was there at 9 and the lady behind the counter in the hat wasnt letting anyone layby, she was arguing with a customer about it too, on the way out i saw signs saying layby now for xmas so i guess the lady serving ppl just made a mistake -

I'm going on a lego/toy run today with some friends, here's hoping we spot a bargain or two -
So I got two replies from Lego last night The first "I'm sorry to hear you are confused about your order. You'll receive your ordered shuttle in a seperate delivery. It probably will leave our warehouse tomorrow and you will receive another email notification when this happens. Of course we won't charge you for postage twice, don't worry. " The second which arrived about half an hour after the first "Due to an error on our website we are not able to ship the shuttle 10231 just yet. If you have ordered other items as well, then these will be shipped straightaway, and item 10213 will be shipped end of June at no further shipping costs.We realise that this is a long time to wait for your product and we are sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused to you and your family. We would like to thank you for your patience. " So its either shipping in the next day or so or at the end of the month. Not really worried as long as it gets here Oh and dont get me started on exchange rates on toys, being a toy collector as well as a lego nut I see how it works and retailers will charge what they think they can get away with. Our American brothers/sisters have it best when it comes to pricing on toys simply due to the size of the population and you will never ever see lego clearanced in oz to the extent that i have seen online in the US

Hi there, My name is Hemish, I'm a 39yr old lego fan from way back. Lego space and technic were my thing back in the late 70's and 80's It wasnt untill I had kids that my interest in lego has started again. My eldest (9) loves all things lego, starwars,city,castle you name it. I've started on the castle,creator,city and starwars sets myself. I'm also into plastic models, mainly gundam kits, but have a few armour and planes that need to be built(been on a marcoss thing lately) Starwars figures and just toys in general Anyways thats about all, time to have a good look around Cheers
