Although I originally asked for £130 I've dropped the price down to £100. I'm loathe to let it go for less.

I agree, I'd rather keep it than give it away for the sake of it

..I bought the Lepin one for £65 delivered and got the pleasure out of making it up so to spend £130 on a made up Lego seems silly .I know they are two different makes but have seen both side by side and TBO I cannot see the difference of a model costing originally £250 .I know buy in Britain and all that but £££ in my pocket is worth more to me .

Maybe the wanting it built up was so they know all the parts are there?


On another note did I read that another car is likely to appear next year?

So I'm selling my genuine GT3RS on local facebook selling groups, built then disassembled and someone has been in touch asking me to build it again then he'll buy it off me. To me this seems very strange as half the fun, to me anyway, is in the building. Anyone else had this?

Nvm, he's now trying to get me taking a stty old mountain bike in trade.
Has it sold? I'll take it for £100. Send me an email if its available and I will be in touch.

For those with Costco memberships, they are stocking lego on line now and have 6x6 all terrain truck and airport rescue vehicle at what looks like competitive prices.

And, knowing Costco's returns policy you can probably buy it, build it, play with it for a year and the take it back for a full refund! laugh

I've just built the Arocs too - a really great build and much more interesting than the GT3-RS. So many functions and features, a real pleasure.

Be careful though and check pricing elsewhere. They've been shown to be more expensive than elsewhere for three items.

Anyone ever ordered from here?

Some really cheap sets - not sure if it's legit!

Site seems to be in the USA.
Very cheap (too cheap...) but postage must be expensive

Doesn't look legit to me - I'm always nervous of prices that look too good.... and copying Lego store's own design also looks very suspect. See here too: https://www.scamadviser.com/check-website/legofans...

Definitely a scam. Claim to have Saturn 5's in stock at under £50. No chance.

Just had a look, not much interest other than the Mack. The yacht look OK but he cars and first responder look a little naff.
