Lego Pirates of Caribbean Landed in Singapore 27 April

Lego 4194 Pirates of the Caribbean Whitecap Bay
4194 Whitecap Bay retail price S$179.90. Member's price $143.90.

The POTC sets are now available in local Lego Store. Usually on the first day of release, there will be lego fans rushing for it and be the first to own them. Well between "Instant & Delayed Gratification", i prefer the latter.

Members get 10% off the retail price.

My order will be send on 1 May. The blog will have a review on the sets 4194 Whitecap Bay and 4195 Queen's Ann Revenge in about 2 weeks time. For Whitecap bay, the US retail is at USD69.99, about 30% less than the member's price (even including shipment), so there's nothing exciting on the member's price.

With the marked up prices in local stores, buying them from overseas is a good choice.

Lego Sales 23 Feb

On Monday, i received an email from BricksWorld, they are having a 20% discount for members today. By the time i'm made this post, i am afraid most of the 10xxx are all gone by now, the public might not be able to get them as there won't be any re-stock.

Reached there in the afternoon, to my surprise, my sis & her colleague was there too (able to use my membership card). For lego sets 10xxx (5 digits) there are bout 4-5 boxes each when i was there, as orders kept coming in, when i left Grand Emporium, Tower Bridge and Fire Brigade are sold out.

My purchase are 10213 Shuttle Adventure S$159.92 (after 20% off) and 10214 Tower bridge S$319.92 (after 20% off). My sis bought the 1st modular 10211 Grand Emporium S$271.92 (after 20%). Her colleague bought Tower Bridge, Fire Brigade and Grand Emporium, will update them shortly.

With a 20% discount, it is quite good to get a few large sets. I spoke to the lady boss earlier, she told me someone had ordered 18 boxes of Grand Emporium. She might consider having 20% off just for members in the near future, suggested to have such sales every 6 months or so, she will be considering.

Check the next post shortly.
