The LEGO thread [STRICTLY NO SALES!] - Part 11

Retirement plan??

Retirement activities!

CNY visitors to your house got say anything?

Only shifted out few weeks ago. I do have concerns when kids come visiting, like my boy's classmate and his brother who keeps touching the boxes and asking can I have this, can I have that!

Worse case is on occasion will push the racks back into the toy room and other rooms. My toy room can still house another 2 racks (barely).

Traveling to Tokyo this week. Will sure pay BIC Camera a visit!
Do they carry the large sets (UCS, modular)?
Searching their online store doesn't return any match for these.

When in doubt there's always Amazon.

The range of lego over at BIC/yodobashi are like our metro. Good instore discount + credit card discount + tax rebate. Probably more than 30% diff comparing to here. For UCS/modular, I have seen at ClickBrick. Pricewise not too far here, probably 15% diff or less.

Hmmm...If I were to visit your house, I think I would be doing something similar, but it would be to point at the boxes and asking, can I buy this, can I buy that

BIC/yodobashi normally have 5% discount if you are paying via VISA.. and as bro djsadist mentioned, usually around 30%..

But for modular and UCS, i went clickbrick and also their discovery center, both price dun seem that attractive to hoot... haha..

Just back from Osaka, august they were having 6% discount sia..

Going osaka in Nov. Interested in this topic too.

Compared to ebay and carousell, are the exclusives worth hooting?

Rested enough, no money already, so need to start looking for job! Got any openings for a Com Science degree holder with years of project management experience?

If your racking shelves have wheels, then moving them to your rooms will be a breeze.

The lego shop there is quite good right?

Better clear my credit cards first. hahaha

Over there got post office or not? Can freight cartons back? LOL

Yes, bought the wheels for them

BTW, where did you get those wheels from?

Wah, you travelled a lot! You in the marketing line?

Yes only legos.. And very limited time to get them. This is why BIC Camera is attractive, including the in-store immediate GST rebate...

Have you been keeping track of how much you have been spending on average every month? Seems... unparalleled!
