Return policy is 90 days. Im unsure if you have to pay for shipping, or you could go to a lego store? Im assuming the latter is ok

They sometimes go on clearance in Walmart, although I never really saw that happened in my local stores...
For example, you can check this postal code for the in-store price: H7E 0A3.

There were also some 32x32 ones sold for $2, but not available now.

But anyway, if you buy the 32x32 from LEGO's brick & pieces site, it's a little bit cheaper (around $9) than those wrapped one...

Agreed. Low piece count and not very exciting minifigs and overall scene.

Hi guys, new to LEGO sets and I've been curious about that huge Star Wars MF set coming soon.
Does LEGO sets have limited production of these exclusives sets?

I mean, I see some sets sold out and some even say this one will sell out pretty fast (other say the contrary but anyway), how does this work? I'm big collector of numismatic coins and I'm used to maximum mintage number, so we know the rarity and can guess the popularity, scarcity and sellout time of new coins... what about the LEGO sets?

Hard to predict, there is no set number for maximum sets produced. You have to go with your feeling. I feel this set will be here for some time, if previous mf set of this magnitude is any indication. I could be wrong though...

I know is still too early but, what usually happen on black Friday? Do you guys score great deals or just regular 20-35% off?
Maybe the new MF will go for sale on black Friday?

Maybe the MF might, but black Friday has always been worth it to shop @ lego
