daaaaang replied to Guybrush57 on Amazon Cancelling Bulky Subscription Items / No Longer Shipping Certain Products to Many Postcodes (Megathread)
I don't really know what the alternative is. It does genuinely cost more to deliver to regional areas, and someone has to cover that cost.…

daaaaang replied to donkcat on Amazon Cancelling Bulky Subscription Items / No Longer Shipping Certain Products to Many Postcodes (Megathread)
It's not just a bit more expensive to deliver to regional areas, it's often double the price. We (not amazon) are also switching from a…

Don't put LEGO in the title and description if it's not actually a LEGO product. It's potentially misleading, and it spams people with…

Can't believe they wanted $70 for this originally. It's smaller than a lot of freebie gifts with purchase. Even at half off it's a bit of a…

You just going to keep spamming this same thing every week in the hopes of fooling more people into thinking this is a genuine product?

Not cheap, just factoring in the value of my time and the cost of sourcing the probable missing parts. Sellers are a dime a dozen, if you…

Melbourne usually has the best availability of all states, just not for this particular set. NT, WA, TAS have it way worse.

Brickeconomy is unreliable. Also investing in sets isn't nearly as profitable as it was during the Lego Movie and Covid eras. Most modulars…

Yeah, OnePass is borked. Couldn't handle the load.

20 minutes of trying, still nothing but OnePass "Sorry, we are having some issues retrieving your subscription details at the moment"…

More likely they just didn't have much stock. I could never get past the OnePass errors :/

No, those minifigure values will crash to less than $2.00. They aren't well known characters. It takes 12 months or so before Bricklink…

daaaaang replied to VestMogen on LEGO 60365 City Apartment Building $57 Delivered @ Amazon AU
City is only worth 10c a piece at most. At 650 pieces this set was only worth about $65 to begin with, so not much of a deal.

Decent piece count, but pretty small pieces, and pretty small set overall. Good number of minifigures though. The LCS stores discounted…

They've done this four times now. Can't sell them even at half price. Garbage sets.

People vastly overestimate the impact of scalpers, mostly because of covid when demand outstripped supply on a larger range of sets. That's…

225 is nothing. That would be about 1 per store for Kmart or 1.5 sets per store for BigW. Scalpers might have bought some sets but it's…
