The Wheeler Dealer Thread

Brickset are reporting that UK Disneystores have all POP sets at 50% off

The online store is already out of stock, but people are commenting just a few hours ago that they have the same deal in the stores if you can get to one.

That would be Desert Attack for £5, Ostrich race for £7.50, Battle for the Dagger for £15, etc. but apparently no stores or online have had the Battle for Alamut (£70) - shame as that would be a real bargain at £35

I'm going to try and get into Derby Disney Store this afternoon to confirm/ maybe buy camels and ostriches

Edit: Confirmed, and I scored sets

Boots have all Lego on 3 for 2 at the moment

Click me for details

No new sets are invovled. This sale is probably there to clear the decks for it. I shall wait for the September 3 for 2 sale to get my new wave SW sets then But, if you did want more Endor sets etc, now's your chance!

Argos have 3 for 2 on all Toy Story stuff at the moment, including Lego.

Argos are also selling off the last of their collectible minifigures (series 1) at £1.49 each. Had 4 left at mine; Ninja, Zombie, Cheerleader and Nurse. Bought the last three but left the Ninja.

Whilst not a great deal, Debenhams have Buy One Get One Half Price on all Lego

[mutley777]

Not really a lego deal but a good one seeing as Argos has just got alot of new sets in. Spend over £50 before closing on sunday and get 2 £5 vouchers, spend over £100 get 2 £10 vouchers.

The catch is each voucher is valid for for one month only, the first for august the second for september. Still as i spent over £100 this means i can get a free battle pack for the next 2 months

Amazon UK has the Tie defender marked down to a very cheap £24.80! Worth noting to the EU members of the site that they should ship to EU countries for a quite cheap shipping charge.

Not bad as that price at today's rate makes it under €30.

They also have £1 off the Wampa cave set and £5 off the new Turbo Tank! not bad seeing as they have only been available on their site just over a week.

This now 10% off both ... still, not good enough reductions for me, so I'll wait it out.

Only around a month to wait for Boots to do a 3 for 2 deal, based on the last 2 years experience.

Amazon uk have reduced the Tie Defender again to a stonking £21.51!!!!! Must resist buying a 3rd! Must resist!

Only around a month to wait for Boots to do a 3 for 2 deal, based on the last 2 years experience.

The 3 for 2 deal is on now but there is not alot in it. Do boots re-stock with new lines for christmas?

[bigospedros]

the 3 for 2 deal on there now is just on selected toys ... to clear the old stocks.

The 3 for 2 deal I am referring to has occurred in the 2nd week of September for the last 2 years (according to my e-mail archive for Boots orders) and it applies to all gifts (not just toys, but all those christmas gift packs of smellies and all that jazz) and it's in preparation for Christmas.

That is when I will buy all the new wave.

I've not bought a SW set at full retail in the past 2 years, I don't see the point as I can wait to get the new sets

Amazon now have every summer Star Wars set reduced after only 2 weeks! Could this be the sign that the prices have got so high and people are now refusing to pay them! I hope so . Take that TLC!

[bigospedros]

£20 off the Toy Story 3 : Garbage Getaway Truck (7599) at TRU

So just £29.99 ... I'm gonna get me one

[bigospedros]

Palpatines Shuttle is now 20% off at Amazon.

I noticed the Boots website was offline today, so maybe it's a sign of a re-stock. Once we know what sets they stock, we can plan ahead what we'll get in their inevitable 3 for 2 deal

I was in 2 of my local sainsburys today and they both had all battle packs 25% off at £7.49
