Thanks for the heads up. Just picked up the Lunar lander. The Creator pirate ship is also on sale for €79.99 if that's of interest to everyone

Check out people that are selling similar sets on Adverts and see what the going rate for European sellers on Bricklink, it'll give you a good ballpark for what is a good selling price rather than the 'throw a dart while blindfolded' pricing scheme you sometimes see online.

This is slightly off topic but are all the sellers on bricklink legit?

Just a bit paranoid that prices coming from Hong kong might be too good to be true

Zavvi.com have March madness on a good few lego sets. 2.99 delivery, got my order within 5 working days so very good and it's coming from warehouse outside of UK so you don't get caught for customs etc.

I've made almost 300 purchases on there over 6 years and, with a little care, I've not been stung once. I tend to stick to Europe though. Postage is usually better and things arrive faster. There's nothing stopping anyone from buying from anyone else, I just have my own habits. I will always buy from an Irish seller if I can though.

Prices can vary a lot depending on the sales tax in a country. A set that costs 40e here might cost the equivalent of 30e in another country... or 60e for that matter. Some countries have cheap postage too. Hungary and Portugal are two while Germany leans towards the expensive. If you're unsure, shoot a message across to them.

Some stores generate their shipping charges automatically but I always go through a stores shipping info. If someone has a nice little bio, information about themselves or explanations for shipping costs, I'll lean towards them.

Feel free to send me a pm if you've any more questions about Bricklink. It's a great resource but can definitely feel daunting dipping your toe in for the first time. Same as eBay I suppose.

Like everything, if it looks too good to be true it probably is, however the vast majority of BL sellers are fine. Always check their feedback and ignore stores with none or lots of complaints. Also, always pay by PayPal and don't send "as a friend", then at least you have buyer protection.

I have been buying and selling there for years without any problems.

I've bought from Hong Kong a few times and it's gone well each time but be warned, shipping is very slow. Like others have said, never pay as friends and you'll be fine.

The Irish Covid reduction ended this month, but the UK under £22 one runs until July.

So that is why the orders are a bit down on amazon. I was wondering why. Least few more months of it reduced then.
