  Re: Surprise Bag Offer Questions
 
(...) I don't think we have seen this type of deal from Shop At Home for a few years, but in the 1990's it was offered most years. Some past discussions about similar offers are here --> (URL) the first 5 discussions listed here --> (URL) no one yet (...) (23 years ago, 7-Jan-02, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.market.shopping)
 
  Surprise Bag Offer Questions
 
In one of my 2002 catalog there is a card for a surprise bag offer when ordering from the catalog. Has anyone done this before? Does it turn out to be worth it? What sets did you get with this deal in the past? The deal lists two Surprise Bags, one (...) (23 years ago, 7-Jan-02, to lugnet.lego.direct)
 
  Re: Euro: one currency does not mean one price :-(
 
(...) The 129EUR is approximately the price in shops here (800FF). 88EUR seems very cheap, maybe I should order before they spot their mistake?

  Re: New bulk discount
 
(...) I tried only ordering from Pages 30-31, and it didn't work either. I tried online, and with two different phone reps. The second rep suggested I call customer service at 1-800-835-4386 when they opened. I did have a happy ending. I called (...) (23 years ago, 5-Jan-02, to lugnet.lego.direct)

  Re: New bulk discount
 
(...) I think you guys are missing what's printed on the page in the catalogue. In mine at least it says the discount is on packs bought from pages 30-31 in the catalogue. NOT on any and all packs you want. Could that be the problem? Eric (23 years ago, 5-Jan-02, to lugnet.lego.direct)

John, When you are on the shopping cart page, there is a place towards the bottom to put in your catalog code (from the back of the catalog). I just checked, by placing some trees in my cart, and applying the catalog code did get me the discount. (...) (23 years ago, 5-Jan-02, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego.direct)

  Re: Euro: one currency does not mean one price :-(
 
Wessel inspired me to do my own little survey. My pick was slightly different; not so much the high end of the range, but across the themes and prices (and more or less my own taste ;-). I found some strange stuff....... My pick: 7191 Collector's (...)

  Re: Euro: one currency does not mean one price :-(
 
(...) Sorry if it wasn't clear but I was agreeing with you... this is an inexplicable variance that over time would expected to become invariant, hopefully at the lower price points. That's the thesis of The Economist, and my hope as well. (23 years ago, 4-Jan-02, to lugnet.loc.eu, lugnet.lego.direct)

The guys at LEGO do not only make up this prices at random, in fact they have totally lost their minds. The UCS X-Wing now costs 209 EUR. That's madness - it's even more expensive than the Rebel Blockade Runner now. And talking about the amount of (...)
