I'm not sure if this is caused by the weak $Aus [Grahame, if you're
listening, has the price of lego gone up over there/look like it's trying to
go up?] or LA trying to gain money from the incoming GST...Maybe the ACCC
needs to have a look at LA's pricing structure? [based on the GST or
otherwise]


Haven't seen any evidence of price rises although with the kiwi dollar at less
than 0.46 USD I would not be surprised. Having said that, I did find the
Football sets not too badly priced.

The small boxed sets (for example the red, blue and green race car sets) are
$4.99 at The Warehouse stores.

  LEGO RRP price rise
 
Looks like lego won't be dropping in price by as much as we hoped after the GST. Apparently the RRP has risen recently, caused by TLG/LA raising the wholesale set price. I'm currently basing this on the following: 'Impulse sets'. RRP is about $4.25. (...) (24 years ago, 25-May-00, to lugnet.loc.au)
