Sale does not appear to be live yet, but here's the sales list for UK. If you are from North America, I spent some time and made a nicer list showing the percentage discount (will be posted at 9pm PST tonight). Its painful to read through just the dollar off discount!

Is the list of UK items on sale similar to the NA list, just with different prices? Or is this UK list largely different from NA's?

I'm pretty sure 95% of sets listed on that list is listed as sold out/nonexistent on UK/US S@H...

I would classify this as 'extremely weak' - specifically for Online Shopping... for Canada/US definately not worth losing sleep over...

Nothing amazing on the list. Might pick up the Winter Village sets, the western train chase or Hogwarts Express and maybe some of the ornaments. Was really hoping to see some exclusives on the list.

20% off Mill Village Raid? $96 in Australia sounds pretty cracy to me still. I ordered mines a while back for under $60 through Amazon.fr. Weak, very weak.

Series 3 is on sale?!? How can this be a sale - no one has them left?

I would suggest waiting and picking up the Western train chase at Sears Outlet (online) - wait till they have a -40% additional coupon online and you'll get it for WAY cheaper.

I checked the other countries and all of them seems to have the same prices. 30% off Tantive and 25% off the older Winter sets aren't too bad, but you have to pay for shipping.

I wish the Maersk container ship was still around in the US/CAN.

As Ice mentioned in the other thread, this year's sale is a bit of a let down. This is a stark contrast to last year; maybe Lego thinks that their products will still sell well at less than 50% off? Hopefully more items will go on sale and the % off will increase as the sale progresses.
