i'd jack it up to 11.90 if i were ALJ.
this is the perk of being sole distro doing collectible retail product.

i feel their margin is about 30-40% toward the retail shoppes.


Added on August 9, 2012, 10:10 am
i dun think so, its 10% now. 15% was the summer break sale previously.

if u ask me the decent stock is the one-u branch. the other that i go to (cheras selatan, sunway, bukit tinggi) all very less.

Oh, ok. Wanna go relive the younger days tongue.gif

Yup, when young boy had some Lego sets, assembled then later diassembled and mixed up in the pile which kinda reduced over the years. That time who would thought that these bricks would be popular and collectibles.

Now Im buying new sets and this time takingcare of them.

We keep each big-sets separately. So far, don't think lost any important bricks before. Maybe some heads/weapons/flower petals lost though.

To me, at retail price, SG is still cheaper than MY even after conversion at 2.3-2.4
Not sure now at 2.5

Maybe you can keep all d accessories in one box. I do paper box myself and throw all of them inside.
*
Yeah, initially after play, dismantle, all keep back in own original boxes. Last time boxes are like drawers type. Some bigger sets are like open-top box type.

After that, buy those plastic containers and store inside. We don't mix the pieces around with other sets.
Since Lego is consider expensive toy to us, we have to take good care of each tiny pieces, cannot lost even one sweat.gif

Don't laugh. We did that once every few months for those big sets. For those old sets, it does not come with inventory something like this.
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

Therefore, we DRAW our own inventory with diagrams similiar like above, and put the quantity onto those F4 folio paper. (If you old enough, you will know F4 for exam write essay tongue.gif )
We count like e.g. six dots, eight dots sweat.gif

Next time if got chance I dig it out, will scan and post it here.

Get some Blu Tack or equivalent. Is like plasticine, but not oily at all. Also does not leave residue/stain, as long not under sun shine.
Stationery shop will have equivalent products, such as from Faber-Castell, etc.

Stick under any objects, and it'll hold it in place brows.gif

Seriously, have you guys even been to Universal Studios Singapore ? Do you feel hot and sweaty walking around ? Even with canopy/covered walkways ?

I can't imagine sweating walking in Legoland Malaysia.

It's nice to goto open theme parks in cool weather like Genting, or HK/Japan/US/Europe during autumn/spring, but our hot and humid weather ... sweat.gif

Unless you going to water theme park (Sunway, A-Famosa, etc.), that is different.

1 unit per receipt is stupid, what if my receipt is RM80 or more. my full tank is close to RM120. Don't tell me I need to pump 3 times if I want 3 units. Never like Shell and almost never pump Shell for the many years. IF NOT BECAUSE OF LEGO....
*
Is there an official announcement on this ? I also plan to put 2x RM40.xx to be safe.
Except suddenly they say, one customer, entitle one claim a day doh.gif

BTW, open 1x minifigs. Got extra parts:
- 1x helmet visor.
- 1x pump-nozzle.
- 1x transparent dot with dot above.
- 1x transparent dot without dot above.

QUOTE(steph13 @ Nov 9 2012, 02:21 PM)
sorry i see a mention of bonuslink. isit required? in order to purchase the model or the minifig?

Yes, bonuslink is compulsory. Must swipe during refill RM40 and printed on receipt.
Not show at counter is fine, the fellow help key in manually based on bonuslink number printed on the receipt.
