I missed that last November and have been waiting since to get it at $160. This deal is just ok.

Just ordered one. There was a vendor selling it for $129.99 + $7.29 shipping. The total came out to $137.28! Lowest price ever from what I found.

You sure you didn't get scammed by that vendor?

99% positive rating in the last year would suggest that they are legit

Sorry, didn't realize you were talking about Amazon 3rd party seller. I was thinking different vendor, as on a different website

My 8 year old wanted this for Christmas and since Lepin is no more, I knew one day I would have to pay a hefty price for it, once it gets retired this set will skyrocket in resale value so I'll have to bite now. Certainly not the greatest price buuut again this is Lego, and like a cockroach they are virtually indestructible and will be around for life. Lol

Just picked up the Harry Potter train at ny local Walmart for $49.99 so keep an eye out at your local stores for that one, i nearly bought it last year for $53.99 and regretted i didn't.

Lepin is sort of alive still -- King, Queen and Jack brands emerged. You can find them on AliExpress or sites like YourWOBB.com. I think this train is under Kazi brand though (not sure if good or not). I just learned about the whole thing and I'm kind of disappointed as I would have loved a Lepin Emerald Night. Hopefully, it'll get reissued.

I'm glad they got shut down. I hope their splinter brands also get shut down. Unethical to support them.
