I don't know if that will come. Maybe somewhere down the road another $10 GC for every $50 spent on Lego via Target, and the off-chance that they include this during a sale?

It's been going for nearly 2x this price almost everywhere else via third-party, so it was an easy buy for me.

Exactly my thought, after watching the great hall can be 40% off it feels like many of the Harry Potter sets can go lower, may be they are overproducing them and demands are not as high as expected

I ended up getting this one, it is a target exclusive apparently and a really fun looking set, I'll hold onto it and if a better deal comes get my double then. One to keep one to build! What a life!

I can't figure out why it says Target exclusive. Based on the Q&A section, when this first was listed it was incorrectly identified as a different set- maybe that one was the exclusive.

All I know is this was a big deal on my kids wishlist. We are doing the 3 gift thing this year (thanks Covid) so it was great to actually find it!!

It's this set (75980) that's the Target exclusive, at least in the US. It can probably be bought from LEGO direct but I've never seen it in stock and certainly never on sale. I'd encourage people to not wait for a better price. Discounts on exclusive, licensed sets aren't that common. It's kind of weird here since this is considered a "very rare" set and always OOS. No official retirement date, though, so anything is possible.

The Hedwig set (75979) is the Barnes and Nobles exclusive from this release cycle and is also currently in stock, but just at normal retail price.

Edit: thanks for posting this, btw!

Thank you for that info! I never knew it- and didn't know about Hedwig, either. I've had the whole 2020 lot in my wish list on several sites (Amazon, Lego) and you're right- The Burrow has always been way overpriced on Amazon from third-party and I don't think I've ever seen it available via Lego.

Since it is already so rare to find, I'm not going to waste time hoping for a 40% late next year. Projections say it would already be retired by then, anyways. I'll gladly pay the $80 for it.

I think some people need to peek at the going price of the previous Burrow set before they wait too long

Get this and return if a better deal comes along.

They are going for slightly over $100 sold on ebay.
