LEGO Technic Excavator on sale for £28.5 (Ships worldwide)

Post by Toys N Bricks » Mon May 20, 2013 12:12 pm

Update: Technic Excavator's price has went back up. However, they now have LEGO City 4209 Fire Plane for £22.50 (reg.£39.99) which works out to be 44% off in savings!

Amazon Europe (UK) currently has LEGO Technic 42006 Excavator on sale for £28.5 (reg.£49.99) or or about €33.74 Euros. Savings work out to be 43% off. Free delivery with no minimum purchase for the United Kingdom and free delivery with orders above £25 for Europe. As always, prices include VAT already.

They also got LEGO City The Mine for £41.23 (reg.£69.99) which works out to be 41% off in savings. More of their hottest LEGO deals can be found here.

International Shipping Available

Select items can be shipped internationally. If you are living outside of Europe, remember that you can get an additional 16.7% off as you do not need to pay for EURO tax (can be seen at final stage of checkout). Remember that no matter where you are from, you still save on shipping when you order more!

Note: LEGO Technic Excavator retails for $79.99 USD / $99.99 CAD and is exclusive to Toys R Us in North America. LEGO City The Mine retails for $99.99 USD / $129.99 CAD.

Both sets are at extreme value as you can buy both sets for only £58.11 + £6.95 shipping = £65.06 (~$100 based on 1.55 exchange rate). Together, both sets retail at $180 USD/$230 CAD. Thats 45% off for United States or 57% off for Canada!

Unless you live in Alberta or some State or Country that doesn't charge tax, you also need to consider that you would be paying tax as well for any Lego you bought from a regular retailer. I just bought two excavators: worked out to be $42.67 each. Going up against the $112.99 after HST it would cost to buy in Ontario, the savings worked out to be 62.24% off! One of the best deals I've found yet!

Excavator is up to £38.00 now. Too bad, missed such a good price.

Thanks! I've been hoping to get the Mine at a good price. My son's eyes just fixate on it whenever he sees it in the Lego catalogs.

Even at 38.00 it still seems like a better deal than can be had in the US. I bought one recently at Lego and even after a 10% off coupon it was still $72

In fact I feel that its such a good deal I bought the Excavator and the tractor 9393 and my total was $85 or 29% off.

Crap, ordered the Mine and it got sent by UPS, got nailed with the $10 brokerage fee so $18.26 CDN COD with all the taxes.

I finally cracked and bought the mine. I had slight interest in the set but not much...then this deal came around. Thought to myself...meh I think about it expecting it to raise in price within a day. Gave it like 3 days and it still was discounted. Gave in and finally purchased one. Hoping that 1) I'll be home when they ship it to me and 2) Shipped by DHL to avoid customs.

Got my shipping notice today, they went through UPS like all the other times. Oh well...I just got called in to work on the 2 days it's likely getting here. I'm aware of where to pickup for UPS at least but don't have a clue where to pickup for DHL. At the same time though, would be nice to not have to account for customs. Has anyone that has ordered in Amazon UK in Toronto got DHL ever?

@Toronadian, sorry can't help you there since I'm in Vancity but I decided to buy the 4209 Fire Plane too. This place really costs me money!

I'm in hamilton and so far it has been 50/50 for me. I think it all depends on the location of the stock. If the item ships from Germany it is DHL, if it is in the UK it is UPS
