All,
Currently, the bulk discount only applies to the items on page 30 and 31 of
the catalog and only in North America.  I've appended the entire list of
item numbers below for your reference.  Also, in order to qualify for the
discount, you must enter a catalog code.  For your convenience, you can just
use the code "J2LUGNET".  To enter the code, just go to the Shopping Cart
page (http://shop.lego.com/Basket/Basket.asp), type in the code and click
"Enter".  Our apologies for any confusion.
In the future, we will be expanding this offer to include more bulk products
and more countries.  Furthermore, unlike the current set up, a catalog code
will not be necessary to qualify for the discount.  Hopefully, these
improvements, as well as many others we are working on, will be available soon!

As an addition to this, you will find that the discount code also applies to
the My Own Train Cars (open freight wagon, tanker, caboose etc). If you buy
5 or more and enter the code, it gives you 10% off these items.

hello!

In the future, we will be expanding this offer to include more bulk products
and more countries

5216

Please, PLEASE make this available also in Germany! I would be really glad
if I could buy some of these packs (about 20) BEFORE they are sold out only
to appear on eBay in masses. Please don't sell limited supplies to be sold
out in a matter of hours but make it a continuous offer.

Thanks
Jojo

I hope this will happen verry soon. I'm waiting on it to place my new order.

Please, PLEASE make this available also in Germany!

Not only Germany, but around the world, so that our Aussie friends can have
there chare of the cake too!

How shall we notice it when the discount counts for other countries other
than the USA?

Ludo Soete

The theory is that these are numbered this way because they are
"mistakes"... that is, they were put in the catalog erroneously (who would
want a red door with a green pane if there are no windows to go with it, or
a ridge tile for low slopes if the blakc slopes on offer are medium) and
both have since been "replaced" with other parts that make more sense that
have more normal numbers. But these parts were run off and hence need to be
sold.

Wasn't the trans light  blue 1x4x3 thinwall (which they listed as a "train
window" at first) also numbered with a B for a while? I forget.

Yes, initially there were 5 B00x parts. The 1x4x3 thin wall (except it
was the clear one which was B001, and the 1x4x5 window with trans light
blue glass (B002) have become normal parts.

B004 and B005 the red and black low slope peaks are both still in the
catalog. I didn't see B003, the doors, in the latest catalog.

Here's a post from Mike Walsh which notes this change:

And here's a post which lists the five mistakes.

Has this discount code been discontinued?  I tried it this morning and found
it didn't work anymore, but it did work for me a few days ago.

It appears to be working for me.  Did you enter in the catalog code
correctly?
