| Hi, I stay in Singapore and recently get back into Lego. Sadly, I've missed
so many opportunities esp on Ninjago City Dock 70657 and movie set 70620.
Both set have become unaffordable.
What do you think is the most economical way to build it?
Buying internationally above 400 Singapore dollar would cost additional tax.
Thanks a lot!

Gathering all the pieces for 70657 sounds like a nightmare. Especially living
in a country with limited domestic stores. You will have to ship 10 or more orders.

| Having done it earlier this year, with access to the much larger UK market, I
can confirm that. Even then I needed a small delivery from Slovenia to complete
the set. It ended up costing as much as importing a sealed box would have, if
I'd been in a position to do that before Brexit, though it was also an enjoyable
process in a twisted way.
Depending on just how much the extra tax was going to cost, I'd be more inclined
to suck it up before prices get even worse - already the relatively cheap sets
some East Asian sellers had, which might have been more practical for shipping
to the OP, have gone.
