Bro, curious. How many six-shooter pistols do you get in the set? Lone Ranger armed with 2.

Any extras like how there's always extra Batarangs with Batman sets?

There are three of the new pistols in pearl silver, and two in dark pearl silver, counting the “extras.”

but i think the "extras" are different from bag to bag?

Oh, Lone Ranger? Not interested.  Already drank antidote tongue.gif

I may want to get just the gun for a little project involving modern "hunters".

Need a Winchester replica and I think Lone Ranger's gun will do tongue.gif

Come to think of it, if I go on with the plan, I may need to get lots of weapons like shotgun, machetes, daggers .......

u need to start hunting for those in BL
but i think can aim for Aus or Europe store...
cheaper shipping

bro aba9785, r u saying anything that is less than multiplier 5 is worth to get locally?

why you choose multiplier of 5 in stead of other value?
*
last time when they sell those creator set (31000-31009), ALJ pricing is multiplier 3, which means if we see any, must sapu...cos we are getting this stuff cheaper than US

multipier 5 = means the price i m getting if i self import.
so less than 5 means buy from retail is cheaper than self import. (at least for me)

March order, May receive? from where? bookdepository? that's rediculously long leh  shocking.gif

can't find any record sad.gif

only got this:
42004 Mini Backhoe Loader
USD 24.99 | RM99.90 | multiplier = 4
-10% = 89.91 |multiplier = 3.6

For this one, i got lucky a bit, only paying rm80-85 (hard to count since i also got bring in other stuff)
the saving is there, but not significance...

might be better to buy from retail? (credit card point, royalty point, etc)
so why do I import then? well, I didnt know parkson n jusco will be selling them (saw them selling around 1 month later) vmad.gif

QUOTE(vey99 @ May 23 2013, 03:07 PM)
thats for me personally. at the moment the only item i would buy retail is baseplate.

currently there are some set on amazon that send here is good price.

lego 3315 olivia house. here selling RM360 (RM324 after 10% off).
if i order amazon its ~RM270 (expedited) ship to my doorstep.

ninjago 9450, ebay malaysian seller selling rm510. amazon (expedited) ship to here, rm400.

so probably better/saefst option is to look for those seller in malaysia who bring in themselve and sell for some profit rather than the distributors insane price.
*
saw the offer, skipping for now.
owe a few seller money now sad.gif
but ur example is a good one...
can save really a lot...

if compare with retail price, i think olivia house is rm399 in TRU
u r saving over 30%....this money can be used to get another set biggrin.gif

went to 3 TRU in penang (penang only got 3), all dont have base plate...
ask the the cashier, they say KL never send them any
i hate u tongue.gif

A question,

How about both if Amazon ship and local seller (either ALJ or others) having almost the same price, just like a few dollars different? maybe local sell like, maybe 7 or 14 ringgit more expensive, will you still decide to buy it over from Amazon? Some is worry the shipment until here the box already like very bad in shape...
*
if me, i usually support local seller, prefer penang one
if penang dont have, then i aim kl seller

if kl seller also dont have the stuff that i want...
then self import....

but that's just me...cos i like those funny set that no one buying....

if nearly same price then of course buy local lor

i dun have any fix guideline but i guess ~25% less than RRP here and i would buy liao

for me i spend most of my money on loose parts, costing me a bloody fortune.
nvm if i see any offer i will poison you summore.

yup... olivia house is in my wish list
thanks first notworthy.gif

other modular set i can just find few of my fav local seller, cos their price is too good laugh.gif
