Thanks! I ordered 3, hoping that's how many are packed in the original Lego shipping box. Last month, I ordered a 10240 Red 5 Xwing, and Walmart shipped it to me without a shipping box. They slapped the UPS labels right on the set box! Needless to say, it got returned. Hopefully they just keep TBBT ...

Hi Harry, No worries; it's my pleasure! You mention a very good point regarding the low Canadian dollar. I remember before the loonie fell, how we (Canadians) used to rightfully vent how the US was getting the best prices for Lego sets. And now, it's Canada. I'm not sure how long before TLC increas...

Is there a way to get S@H (Can) to match the in store pricing? I have a Lego Store at home, but won't be back in Calgary until the 15th. I'd pick up a Maersk ship at 20% off with the Pirate minifig.... but it's not worth $180 to me.

What store in Calgary? I checked Royal Oak without luck and also missed the online stock. PM me if you want. Thanks!

Does this clearance exist at Targets in Canada also? Do they ever coincide the US sales with the Canadian sales?

That's correct. I saw these same sets at the Beacon Hill Calgary Costco last week. These are the sets they are stocking for Christmas toys, and about 20-25% off MSRP is about the same as last year too. They didn't have any of the larger sets our yet, like a fire or police station, but they generally...

Heh ... good one!

Are those beach house imposter sets actually real??? Unbelievable how close they are to the LEGO Beach House.

Is the shipping worse in the US than here in Alberta? For two Lion CHI Temples it was only $3.95 total shipping cost to a store for me. With the 30% + 20% off, I overlooked the small shipping cost.

Funny enough, my family and two other families we are really good friends with are having a New Year's Eve Lego Party this year! It is the first time we've tried it, but we have 4 kids and they have 2 each, so it is something we thought we could do that would involve the kids too. The kids are 8, 7,...

Did Target have King's Castle 70404 on sale?

Anyone here has tried the 10$ promotional gift card that LEGO gave us on cyber monday if you bought for 149$ or more? I've tried to enter the code with/without the hidden pin number and it always says that the code is invalid... But I've checked the balance on the card and they say 10$ left. It doe...

For my part, I will gladly spend my dollars elsewhere. As odd as this sounds but in comparison to the last years I have not spend nearly as much at S@H... with Amazon Canada now selling LEGO sets and the deals at Amazon UK it's not that hard to find better deals... Yes - the VIP sale last week was ...

Has anyone been able to deduce a ryhme or reason why some sets are shipped to Canada via DHL or Royal Mail & Canada Post (No duty) or UPS (duty)? I've done large orders, small orders, multiple same size boxes, different boxes, and over 12 orders in the past year, havent been able to deduce what ...

Is there a way to get the code without having the BN account? I don't have an account (yet)...

I've never shopped at BN before .... What carrier do they use for Canadian deliveries? There is no duty, UPS fees or anything like that added once the item gets to your door?

Thanks!

The 2013 LEGO City Fire Station is at Costco.ca for $103 ... it was recently added in the last week.

My local Wal-Mart must have cleared out dead/old stock from their back room, because I managed to find several Harry Potter Knight Bus sets. One was a gift for someone, but I hung onto two for myself. There were four in total there. They were marked down to $20 clearance. Is there any rhyme or reas...

Its back in stock at Costco.ca now ....

I'm a father of 4 in my mid 30's, and got back into Lego in the past year wih my kids after being oblivious to it for about 20 years. As such, I've purchased insane amounts of used Lego lately collecting sets that aren't sold in stores anymore. Most assembled sets are midly dusty, and a bit of compr...
