For Friends fans, I found that klodsland.dk is selling a couple of sets for interesting price.
http://www.bricklink.com/store.asp?p=holze

City Park Café RM86
Heartlake Pet salon RM57
Olivia house rm138

Shipping about RM215

total RM281+215 + 5% ~ RM525 for the three sets with insured shipping. Retail price at TRU about RM660 iianm.

If you keep hiding your UCS collection from wife pretty soon you run out of desk space in your office! lol!

Don't want to keep everyone waiting in suspense for the price of 10240. I'm waiting confirmation on the shipping weight but here's my guesstimate:

10240 Red Five X-Wing Starfighter ~RM950-1000 this is including shipping + tax

I don't think there will be a limit on how many I can order, it's just a matter of whether supply is enough to cope with demand... Seeing that everyone is so low on ammo these days (including yours truly) I doubt many will join this bulk order.

Its RRP is $199.99 at Lego Shop Online USA and available from 4th May.

My supplier claims he is getting his on 2nd May. I'm targeting this bulk order to be the first lot of UCS X-Wing to reach Malaysia so some of us gets to have the bragging rights!

the only way not to buy any new ones, imo is not to visit this thread.
tis thread is super posion with no cure available

like taking drugs... u want more n more n more

Really tempted to buy series 10 from BL. But read somewhefe that distribution inside each box(box of 60) really wierd, so will end up having too much of same fig.



This show how much ALJ profit from each pack.  Price for each pack only rm7.50. Even after include postage from german to malaysia.  No risk of custom tax because item is less rm500.

Price for 60px is only euro100±postage euro11= euro111, equivalent to rm449  (@4.029 maybank selling rate

may i know whats price yougot for maersk train n victory raceway?

yeah..
paanjang16 what's the price for Maersk train

Well, that was just a preliminary estimate to frighten everyone. lol!  I didn't have the actual weight this morning and I assumed it would be heavier than 10227 B-Wing due to it being more expensive. The B-Wing is 2.8Kg so I assumed the 10240 X-Wing to be at 3Kg.

With that assumption I could only fit 5 sets of 10240 X-Wing into the shipping box. (Max weight per shipping box is 16Kg)

Late this afternoon I received a reply from my supplier that the 10240 weight is 2.26Kg, meaning I can actually fit 7 sets into the shipping box not 5.

So now I can work out a more accurate price for this 10240 X-Wing, and I'm posting it here for everyone to see:

Price for one set of 10240: 183 Euros
Price for one 16Kg shipping box: 106 Euros
Total price for 7 sets: (7 x 183) + 106 = 1387 Euros
Bank Transfer Charges: 25 Euros
Hence average price per set: (1387 + 25) / 7 = ~202 Euros

I use an exchange rate of 4, this is also risky for me. The bulk order I just paid this week the bank gave me a rate of 4.03. I know our phone app XE Currency gives a rate of 3.96 but I pay what the bank states.

So converting back to Ringgit: 4 x 202 = RM808 (this is the cost inclusive of shipping right up to the point of reaching customs KLIA)

Our friendly customs officer will slap 10% tax: RM808 + 10% = RM889

Pos Malaysia charges RM49.80 for custom clearance. I forgot how much my bank charges me for bank transfer. Yeah, I have to cover both countries' bank transfer charges.

So let's just assume I round it up to RM900 to cover for the miscellaneous charges this will be the cost of importing the 10240 X-Wing to Malaysia right up to the time of collection at Pos Laju.

I mark up another RM30 for my troubles and the bulk order price becomes RM930. Honestly RM30 is not much of a cushion in the event of any surprises but this is the formula I use for CS/Bulk orders. (mark RM10 for small sets and RM30 for big sets)

This morning I put up a higher figure because it was based on the assumption that it is heavier than B-Wing and I always operate on the basis of "quoting high and adjust low" rather than "quoting low and adjust high" later. So I just announce RM950-1000 with the intention and hope that I can adjust it lower pending confirmation of the actual weight. I have been importing Lego for myself for several years now and have long accepted that it is not worth my time to make this into a business. I stumbled across this forum and thought of giving everyone a hand, it was never my intention to compete with the sellers here.

I know what CS means but let's be honest, I'll be taking a big risk to sell it just at cost. Cutting it too thin and risk losing money in the process... Community service yes but not charity...

My apologies if I offended anyone with the above statements or if it is against the rules to post such things. I'm in a bloody foul mood today and I just want to vent and I'm sorry it has to be here in this forum. As I am writing this I have already cooled down and have thought of not posting the above but I thought what the heck, I wrote so much and I'm not going to just delete it!

Sir Alby, I'm not directing my anger at you. I just want to be open and avoid any misunderstandings. With your jalan you can definitely get it cheaper in the USA. Everyone knows the price and have their own lubang to source for Lego, I don't see any point in competing with establish sellers here. Peace!

Wow  - 25 pages already? Just got back from 1U (yeah, I know, it's like my 2nd home) and as usual, stopped by the 2 usual spots where they normally have the most LEGO.

TRU - restocks aplenty. If anyone knows the layout for 1U TRU, one side of the shelf is now all mostly the licensed sets. Saw restocks for some Superhero sets like Spider-man, Arctic Batman and The Bat Vs Tumbler sets. Probably some Star Wars too but I wasn't really paying attention.

I walked over to the other side and it's mostly the City sets now, placed alongside some KREOs. But quite a large selection.

I thought nothing really interesting so proceed towards the exit when from the corner of my eye, I spotted these!



Was surprised to see them at TRU.

Some new stock at AEON too but the glass case was shared with Furby so they placed some LEGO on top of the shelf as well. Nothing much to report here.

holy. . . so many pages d. . .

I've passed by uncle lego's stall at amcorp once before. I wonder how much Amcorp charges to setup a stall there. Can't be cheap so no wonder his prices are higher. I guess his target market must be different, those consumers who like to see and touch the products before buying. 

Wow looks like lots of ppl here now considering setting up stall at Amcorp. Should join forces and setup a stall there and provide big-time community service to the poor unsuspecting public by selling Lego cheap cheap, take pre-orders and do more bulk orders to satisfy everyone's hunger for Lego.  Who's in? 

I bought my CMF Series 7 from him. Good seller and very reasonable shipping but I suppose if you buy Mr. Gold you will want all sorts of insurance cover! lol!
Sharing is caring bro!!    

Btw, before I continue with more poison, can anyone help confirm this? Another forumer and I would like to know if the track from the train sets are compatible with that from 6857 Dynamic Duo Funhouse Escape? I know I've asked this before but would like to put it to rest once and for all... Below is a picture of the regular train track, the track width is 4cm. Can someone help check the track width of the tracks in 6857 please? Thank you!
