When I was in the UK over the summer my kids got into Lego in a big way . Came back to Riyadh a week ago and I've been looking around for some here . There is a lot of imitation stuff such as Emco and Megablocks but the quality isn't quite as good and they don't fit together so well . Tried Carrefour , Toys R Us and Panda etc but can't find any . The only place I can think of is Hamley's in Panorama Mall but it's a bit of a way to go on the off chance . E-bay is a no-no because of the crap postal service . Anyone got any ideas ? Need to build !

Shop n Ship - if there is such a thing. Lego is so cheap in the UK and so expensive in the region, it almost pays to courier it here.

As the mother of 2 Lego fanatics - we never found it in Jeddah when we were there - go with Millhouse's suggestion - open a shop n ship (Aramex) account and order direct from the UK.

I've since found out that Hamleys in Panorama Mall is the place to go for it . It can't work out cheaper to ship it than buy it surely ? It's not that cheap in the UK really .

It is very cheap in the UK! Check Amazon, or Tesco. If you can get a friend to post it without the box even better.

I was at Hamleys getting Lego with my son last week, didn't think the price was that much different from uk

We looked at one of the Hobbit box sets of Lego in Hamleys - around AED 700+

Same thing in UK was GBP 49.99 - half the price

Guess I'm going to have to go down to Hamleys at Panorama and have a look . I remember the prices from the UK and I've had a look at Hamleys website ,e-bay etc but still need to check out the local prices in Saudi to see what the difference is .
