3409 had a recommended retail price of $59.95 inclusive of 22% wholesale sales
tax. If you remove the 22% tax then add on the 10% tax, surely we can expect a
10% reduction in price or at least that's what the ACCC is telling us to
expect.

TLG must be offering the set for 12% less than it was available for prior to
the 1st July.

Why does everyone expect the prices to be the full 10% cheaper?  They can't
go beyond the minimum list price that TLG supplies, you know.

Hi All,

Just did the rounds of the Brisbane northside stores, picked up the
following at TRU as they were 40% off and good sources of spare parts

6568 reduced from $56.99 to $32.46
8x6452 reduced from $5.99 to $3.52
2x6546 reduced from $9.99 to $4.82

Also finally found stock of the soccer sets at both TRU and DJ's neither
of which had reduced the prices by the expected 10% caused by the GST.

TRU still has all the pre GST prices on everything but all stock scans
at a price about 3% cheaper.

DJ's are offering some of the soccer sets at the following prices:

3402 Light Pole and Stand  $8.54
3403 Grandstand and Scoreboard $13.43
3404 Team Bus 1 $17.24
3405 Team Bus 2 $17.24
3406 Team Bus 3 $17.24
3407 Team Bus 4 $17.24
3408 Super Sports Coverage $30.72
3410 Expansion Set $13.43

Has anyone seen them cheaper, ie a full 10% cheaper?

Not necessarily. If TLG and the store selling something agree that it won't sell at the RRP (full list price I believe) sometimes they put together a deal on the kit or kits that marks a certain amount off the affected kits. In which case, they (...) (24 years ago, 9-Jul-00, to lugnet.org.au)
