(...) AND if you order the Fort Legoredo (like I did) and follow their conditions, then the Fort set ships FREE! (a $7.49 savings). Between that and using one of the $5 off codes, the shipping cost was very reasonable! - Bob (22 years ago, 14-Jun-02, to lugnet.market.shopping)

(...) Also, remember to check (URL) for your $5 off a $35 order coupon code (I tried it, and it works). CHNKBKAMZNLT, for those who are too lazy to go find it. :) (With $8 per RBR shipped, that's not a bad deal.) LFB (22 years ago, 15-Jun-02, to lugnet.market.shopping)

  Fort Legoredo is not available after all! (Was: Re: 50% off at Amazon.com)
 
(...) I just received an email from Amazon that this set is now unavailable and they have therefore removed it from my order :-( However, they appear to be still applying the discount on the shipping for the two pirate ships I ordered so that's a (...)

I have a feeling that I too will soon be getting such a letter. I can't say that I am happy with the way Amazon has handled my order, again! (They haven't gotten one right yet) I placed one order for 20 Legoredos. Over the weekend they proceed to (...) (22 years ago, 18-Jun-02, to lugnet.market.shopping)

(...) Ordered 10 saturday morning. 7 shipped that day, the other 3 were held back because the bank declined after that. However, I got notice of the final 3 shipping monday morning and received all 10 tuesday. (22 years ago, 19-Jun-02, to lugnet.market.shopping)

(...) If you knew ahead of time that an item was so big that it had to ship separately, you could break the order up into a number of smaller orders. Then, put each order onto a different credit card, maximizing the number of items that get approved (...) (22 years ago, 19-Jun-02, to lugnet.market.shopping)
 
  Re: Fort Legoredo is not available after all! (Was: Re: 50% off at Amazon.com)
 
That's just it, the item is NOT so big it needs to be shipped individually. They could have use a decent sized box and gotten atleast 5 sets in it. I've gotten such sized boxes from Amazon before. And even if they didn't, they are obviously shipping (...) (22 years ago, 19-Jun-02, to lugnet.market.shopping)

  Re: Fort Legoredo is not available after all! (Was: Re: 50% off at Amazon.com)
 
(...) True. Good advice! It's what I do when I order large orders from overseas (non US) suppliers and it saves a lot of hassle. However I do not consider any order from Amazon (a US supplier selling and shipping to a US address) that is under 1000 (...) (22 years ago, 20-Jun-02, to lugnet.market.shopping)
 
  Re: Fort Legoredo is not available after all! (Was: Re: 50% off at Amazon.com)
 
True, and good advice. I just wasn't expecting this to be a problem. I thought it was a fairly simple order, I had no idea they would charge each item separately. In the past I have placed multiple orders, so in those cases I would have expected (...) (22 years ago, 20-Jun-02, to lugnet.market.shopping)
