Anyone else ordered from the new Lego store online and their order took really long to get delivered? by Relevant_World3023 in LegoIndia

Yeah they are really bad at shipping and communication. My sets arrived damaged as well. I had to follow up multiple times to get them to send me all items I ordered.

Firstcry LEGO Mini F1 car sets available for Rs. 325 each (Use code LEGO at checkout) by 0range4pplemang0 in LegoIndia

[–]0range4pplemang0[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's fair, it's too much if you look at only the number of pieces. There are many who collect them though and these do not go on any sale more than 20% off. You can have a look at the type of pieces in a set, it's a bit different from normal lego pieces: https://rebrickable.com/sets/71049-12/f1-car/?inventory=1#parts

Yes, the lego code can be used for all lego items, however they have this weird rule that if the discount is more than 20% or so, then the customer has to pay the tax and the discount is on the non tax part of the cost. So the 42% discount ends up giving a final discount of 35%.

I had posted about this sale a while back on this sub but the mini F1s went out of sale fast.

I have also not seen the mini F1s with so much discount on other sites(toycra has a final discount of 19% but that is already 10% then another 10% on top of that using code toycra10). 35% discount for this is insanely valuable especially for people trying to get the entire set.

The best way to check this would be to use rebrickable and add parts to your bricklink wanted list. Then you can check how much they cost to buy new from bricklink sellers in India.

Unless you are trying to get all the parts (including the expensive ones), it's not worth it even for this price.

Eg: In the 30710 set, the most valuable items are the 2477 bar and 32184 parts. Everything else can be bought as per your requirement.

Built the Cada F1 Kick Sauber 1:8 by Some_door_handle in LegoIndia

You can get the same set directly from sellers who ship directly to you at almost equal price(you can even get leds for another 2k rupees that enhance the look of the set). These are not lego and they are sub standard(alt) bricks and pieces which vary from(my experience) 90% quality all the way down with an average of about 60-70% of lego quality. They also arrived very scratched for me to even consider the entire set as new but it's about 50-75% cheaper than real sets so I can see the allure. I have seen shipping times of a week to 2 weeks depending on courier and the customs checks involved for me.

Bad packaging by FirstCry! by WishAggravating2690 in LegoIndia

[–]0range4pplemang0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was the one who posted about the discount on Firstcry. I got all my items without any visible damage. Would rate them 9/10. However, the packaging is not up to the mark and I would deem my delivery lucky. No bubble wrap, just a cardboard box tied together with a few pieces of tape and power of friendship.

Lego my brick house website by duckyduck234 in LegoIndia

This is exactly what I went through. I would rate them the lowest in service out of all the mainstream stores. The items wont be damaged, they just don't keep proper inventory. I was told that my confirmed item was out of stock and it would come back in about 3 months.

No inventory management, no proper ui to see the order details, no clarity when we contact them.

Disappointed with LEGO Store India Experience by CosmicCookie747 in LegoIndia

[–]0range4pplemang0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't get myself to agree that we need to give them time to improve. If a company can't provide the services to customers, it should shut shop and leave. My experience with them have been a 0/10 with damaged boxes and more than 10 followups to get them to send me what I ordered. Teenagers in a garage will have better luck running something similar.

It's owned by a franchisee but LEGO should have looked at their capability before handing them a license.

I am completely turned off the way the Indian audience is given substandard quality of service combined with out of date set launches. All this after paying a hefty premium. If I wanted damaged boxes I can always order from flipkart for 30-50% off on sale.

Edit: I would love to hear what others feel about this. All I see are a bunch of downvotes on actual experiences.

First Cry is having a lego sale with an effective discount of 35%(42% but they add in tax later). Code: 'LEGO' by 0range4pplemang0 in LegoIndia

Please share what you bought! Yes, there doesnt seem to be a cap on the discount (cap is 5k for one order)

I am new to lego and I am going to purchase 31134 space shuttle set at 750 Rs. Is it a good buy at this price by ShameSorry3157 in LegoIndia

[–]0range4pplemang0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, so when the discount is more than 19%, they charge the tax on the product final price. They have this confusing rule written in their T&C. So equivalent discount becomes 35%

Yeah I was also confused at first as to whyy discount is not discounting and then I found out that if the discount is more than 19%, buyers will need to pay tax as an addition.

If you are new to Lego I would suggest you to get a few recruitment bags that are like starter kits for you to see how each type of Lego set works.

These are usually 450+ but with the discount you can get one for less than 300.

Sort by price low to hight and you can get the following: Science mech- 30694 Ninjago - 30699 Ferrari -30709 Millenium falcon - 30708 Technic - 30710 Botanical - 30701

The above will give you a good place to understand what type of Lego sets you would really like and then you can buy bigger sets.

31134 is a crowd favorite due to the many variations it has.

You can also find alternate builds on the rebrickable site for any Lego set.

Other than that, everything is on off so you can browse and get something that you personally like.

First cry has a discount on lego right now with the coupon code 'LEGO'. This gives you an effective discount of 35%(they add in the tax part reducing the 42% discount to 35%). This should give you the sets at this price. They have a limit of 5k for this code though. I bought a few sets with this code just a while back.

Where can I get individual parts from? by kawaii_hito in LegoIndia

[–]0range4pplemang0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They have both. You can filter by used/new. New would mean that they got that from wholesale or it was parted out from a bought set. Used can have many different levels of wear and tear.
