Unless it's kept private, what were the offers and other sets available this time?
42028 and 42029.

Unless Russy wants to "go public" then it's fair to say they were similar levels of discount.



Edit - spelling!

Last orders at the bar!

If you've not yet ordered, you have until midnight Sunday to do so - the group buy closes.

Time, gentlemen, please!

Group buy is now closed

Thanks to everyone who joined, and to Russy for getting out his "man maths" calculator to give us a good deal.

Right... roll on 1 August!

Great news - anyone got a link to the list of things to say to the Fun Police / Finance Officer?
  • It was a bargain
  • It was cheaper to buy it in advance, than it is now
  • It's gone up in value
  • Some bloke off the Internet made me do it

Well? Has the nice lego man delivered them to you yet?
Keep up at the back!

russy01 on friday said:
OK chaps I have good news!

I have my delivery booked in for late Monday, LEGO have also given the all clear to send on receipt.

So I will try send on Monday if possible, but its more likely to be Tuesday - for Wednesday delivery.

Unfortunate for BaronVonVaderham as DPD says they have encountered a delay on his route and delivery may not happen today! Lets all take a few seconds to think of him in these sad times....

Irritated beyond belief. Gave my order up as job contract wasn't going to be renewed so assumed I would be skint until another contract sorted.

Now it has been renewed so could have bought the thing after all.

Bugger......

Out of interest, how many sets were actually sent out yesterday?
Erm, lots of LEGO in and out yesteray, I think we had 7 pallets of 42030 alone.

As for PH, it was less popular than the 42009 last year. Overall there were 74 Technic items sent to about 60 PH'ers.
90 people registered interest, so 2/3s bought in the end.
