Topic: Something similar to Pick-A-Brick (in Australia)

I've had a look at the BrickLink website to buy some random pieces that I need for custom sets, but I'm really struggling to find anything siggnificant.
I have recently found out that Lego has a service at their stores called Pick-A-Brick, but there are no Lego stores in Australia, and you can't do it on lego.com mini/sad
Is there anything like Pick-A-Brick either online with shipping to Australia, or in any Australian stores?

Re: Something similar to Pick-A-Brick (in Australia)

@bricksinthebasment, do you have a link? I keep getting error 500 whenever I go to the online lego store, and I have tried it several times over the past few hours, even before I made this topic.

This is the link I use: http://shop.lego.com/en-US/LEGO-MBA-Spa … HomeSH1MBA

And the error message:

Server error!

The server encountered an internal error and was unable to complete your request. Either the server is overloaded or there was an error in a CGI script.

Error 500

Don't know if you can help, but thanks anyway mini/confused

Re: Something similar to Pick-A-Brick (in Australia)

What's wrong with Bricklink?  They have a really wide selection and most parts are at low prices.

Wait, you're only looking for parts that are from stores in your own country (Australia), aren't you?
If you are, it's because of international shipping fees, right?

The online Pick-a-Brick is really expensive (not to mention a small selection).  You'd probably get charged way more for using PaB than getting the same thing from Bricklink, even with international shipping fees.
Also, Bricklink supports PayPal.

I really think you should get the parts you need from Bricklink.

Not literally dead, just no longer interested in Lego or animation.

^ This.

What Lego pieces are you looking for exactly?

Also, KAB, use the edit button instead of rolling out three posts in a row like that.

Re: Something similar to Pick-A-Brick (in Australia)

Just had a closer look at Bricklink, and I've put in my first order mini/bigsmile
I will definately be using Bricklink in the future, it's much more easier to use than what I first thought mini/smile

So yeah, my first order: 25 City minifigs, 2 mini boats, and a mini video camera mini/smile

And just for the record, while I will still use Bricklink, Legoland and the Lego store for PAB is still on my list of Lego must do's one day.
