Re: [USA/CAN] Legoshop sale
When did this sale start? Most of the goodies are sold out. :(
Re: [USA/CAN] Legoshop sale
Several were sold out weeks ago, green grocer and the Kingdoms advent calendar are both good examples of that. Not sure what is going on.ThunderFighter wrote:When did this sale start? Most of the goodies are sold out. :(
Re: [USA/CAN] Legoshop sale
The North America sale may have started the same time as UK. The UK sale started on December 25 midnight which is equivalent to December 24 - 4:00 pm PST or 7:00 pm EST.ThunderFighter wrote:When did this sale start? Most of the goodies are sold out. :(
Re: US Legoshop sale
Wow, never thought I would see Lego put actual deals on their website (I rarely saw it updated with sales and only then with Duplo, keychains, etc).
To those who have been out of the dark ages for longer than I have, can you tell me if this sale is an annual event? (Or does Lego have any other annual sales?) These are such great deals, and it was almost completely unadvertised! I would hate to miss any in the future.
As for my order, I did miss out on some sets, but I am happy with what I got (as long as the order doesn't get cancelled). Merry Christmas, indeed!
Happy holidays everyone!

Re: [USA/CAN] Legoshop sale
Wow! I just came out of the dark ages this year and had no idea Lego would discount so many sets at once. I was with family this evening and totally missed out! If I had known I would have camped out at my computer at 7pm EST because nearly everything is sold out now. Will the Lego stores be running the same deals or is this just an online thing? I really wanted to buy a farm set!
Re: [USA/CAN] Legoshop sale
LEGOShop.com did have something similar last year. I don't think they had as much items discounted back then though due to the weekly phone specials. Also, the discounts were only 25% off.autobrick wrote:To those who have been out of the dark ages for longer than I have, can you tell me if this sale is an annual event?

Like what the others said, most of the items were "sold out" before they even went on sale (same thing happened last year) so you didn't miss much. ;)autobrick wrote: As for my order, I did miss out on some sets, but I am happy with what I got (as long as the order doesn't get cancelled).
LEGO Stores will have a January sale as stated in their January 2011 Calendar.chicagorando wrote:Will the Lego stores be running the same deals or is this just an online thing? I really wanted to buy a farm set!
Re: [USA/CAN] Legoshop sale
Your only talking about the coupon code for the USA right? If I click on the banner from a Canadian IP it will still benefit Toysnbricks right?
Re: [USA/CAN] Legoshop sale
Yes the coupon code is only for USA. For this banner, it works regardless if your from Canada or USA.Shijima wrote:Your only talking about the coupon code for the USA right? If I click on the banner from a Canadian IP it will still benefit Toysnbricks right?
EDIT: This banner only works for USA and will not work for Canada as they are based in different regions. So no, it does not work for Canada. Sorry for any confusion this may have caused.
Re: [USA/CAN] Legoshop sale
Everything is getting sold out fast. Pig farm, city house, tie defender are sold out now. Get them now before all the good stuff is gone!!

Re: [USA/CAN] Legoshop sale
Got the Star Destroyer for $19.95! Great price! Thanks for the heads up!
PS - did anyone get a Venator or where those already sold out before the markdown?

Re: [USA/CAN] Legoshop sale
I imagine all the 210 sets in Sales and Deals were slated for the sale before all such items sold out and for whatever reason they didn't get deleted before the sale actually began. For all we know, they chose these sets for markdown months ago, knowing they'd need lots of warehouse space for the 2011 products. It seems the new years sets start coming earlier and earlier each year, especially to TRU.
I was thinking it wouldn't begin for the US till midnight EST, but luckily I checked my RSS feed and saw the news here. Now, four or five hours later, only one other Lego news site seems to have caught on to the sale. TnB is the awesome.

Re: [USA/CAN] Legoshop sale
I think that was sold out before the markdown. Tie defender, count dooku solar sailer and star destroyer were the only SW sets that were not sold out before the markdown.mrfootball wrote: PS - did anyone get a Venator or where those already sold out before the markdown?
Re: [USA/CAN] Legoshop sale
AT-AT was available.
Re: [USA/CAN] Legoshop sale
I never saw AT-AT but did see Tie Defender which is now sold out as well. Most of these were sold out before being on sale I'm sure. I did manage to jump on a backorder for count dooku solar sailer, which I wasen't overly interested in, but for half price, I wouldent mind a magna guard or two, and I dont have a Dooku, so it works out.
Theres quite a few sets I saw available, like the pig farm, but waited until after turkey dinnner to order and was too late to get them, so instead I ordered a few of the farmer with pig and dog impulse sets, and a jester as well.
$60 shipped for Solar sailer, 4 pig impulse and a jester impulse, isnt too bad, could have been better though.

Re: [USA/CAN] Legoshop sale
Lego may have added more stuff. Shows up as 213 items now instead of 210. The fun favor pack could be one of the new sales items. For $10, you get 8 mini polybag sets and LegoLand coupons. Good deal!

I'm still seeing 210. I plan to keep checking every so often to see if anything gets added.legogeek wrote:Lego may have added more stuff. Shows up as 213 items now instead of 210.

Re: [USA/CAN] Legoshop sale
I too wonder this. Does anyone know what's happened in previous years regarding in-store sales? I'm dying for a Space Police Jail at $40.pumbaugh wrote:Does anyone think instore sales will start day after xmas instead of Jan 1 on their calendar?

My nearest Lego store is outside of Phili, I think. About 1.5 hours. Does that mean I need therapy?
