    I still have my Saturn V in the box upstairs and I don't see me getting it built this side of January so I'm going to move it on now.

    If anyone is interested in it send me a PM and you can have it for cost price, I'm not looking to make anything off it and I'd prefer to see someone who will actually enjoy the build get it than someone on Adverts who'd just try flip it.

    I built my one, im usually into the Technics sets but I have to say I love this set. Its also pretty big!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,288 ✭✭✭Fanny Wank


    This is an unbelievable set IMO. So detailed and the build is very, very clever

    Fair play to you. I got this a month or so ago for myself and one for my nephew for Christmas. Fantastic kit. Attention to detail is amazing, from the two-tone support interior invisible once built to the fact it's 1969 pieces (Although mine had a few extra small pieces). Think I might take it apart again just to rebuild.

    My advice is to take emmetkenny up on his offer (And don't be a tool and resell it).

    I'll end up re buying myself at some stage but I know someone might need one for Christmas and it's hard to know how many Lego will get back into stock before then.

    Likewise. I'm saving it now for Christmas :D

    I was in the Lego store in London today and they had a good few of these in stock. Hopefully that's a sign they'll be coming back online soon.

    Ordered one today to ship by Dec 14. Cashed in my VIP points so I got it on the cheap. Can't wait.


  • Registered Users Posts: 506 ✭✭✭Daisy 55


    Trying to order one. Keeps saying no delivery to a po box!

    Do you not have a non-PO Box address that you can have it shipped to?


  • Registered Users Posts: 506 ✭✭✭Daisy 55


    I just have a regular address. Not a po box!
    Is there a trick to this?

    Order off the Irish store?


  • Registered Users Posts: 506 ✭✭✭Daisy 55


    Yes
    Has a little tricolour at the top!


  • Registered Users Posts: 714 ✭✭✭WildWater


    Have you ordered from the site before? It shouldn't be a problem. Check how you have your address entered.


  • Registered Users Posts: 506 ✭✭✭Daisy 55


    No, first time customer! My address is in correctly. Just won't go to payment. Keeps jumping up top post box warning.


  • Registered Users Posts: 714 ✭✭✭WildWater


    Well that's odd. It should work. Try logging out and back in again. When I was trying to cash in my VIP points earlier it didn't work. Logged out and back in and hey presto.


  • Registered Users Posts: 506 ✭✭✭Daisy 55


    Sorted! Was using auto fill and it didn't like it.
    Delighted! Will be one happy son on Christmas morning!
    Thanks boardsies!

    Great.


  • Registered Users Posts: 506 ✭✭✭Daisy 55


    So, if you've ordered one recently, do you think it will arrive before Christmas?!

    I only ordered mine yesterday and it said ship by the 14th. If it ships by then it will be here. In my case, I've yet to decide if this is a gift for me or for my son :) So, if it doesn't come in time for Christmas then I guess it will have to be a gift for me. :D

    Sleepy, how long did it take between shipping and delivery?


  • Registered Users Posts: 24,151 ✭✭✭✭Sleepy
