How good is the Argos 2 for £30 LEGO deal, which sets are the best buys?

ARGOS 2 FOR £30 LEGO DEAL

This deal is often around with different sets and they tend to last quite a while, but how good is the Argos 2 for £30 Lego deal as often you can normally pick them up for the same price or even cheaper.

There is also a disparity between the price of the sets as well, some being worth £25 and some being worth £15, so will have a look and see how good this 2 for £30 offer is and what the metrics for these will be.

Which sets can you buy in the Argos 2 for £30 LEGO deal?

There are six diffent LEGO sets that you can buy in this deal, varying in theme and RRP,

Lego 31136 Creator Exotic Parrot

RRP £19.99
Launch date 01/01/2023

Expected retirement date: 31/12/2024

Middle of the range priced set this one at £20 – so getting for £15 if buy 2 or mismatch is a 25% discount.
This is a very popular set, average sales rank of 195 at time of writing which is huge!

Price range wise, I don’t think have seen dip below £15 so is a good buy this – whether we now see amazon price match will be interesting.

Lego 60387 City 4×4 Off-Roader Adventures

RRP £24.99
Launch date 01/01/2023
Retirement date: 31/12/2024

This being a £25 set makes it very good for the 2 for 30 – it puts it at 40% discount when buying 2 or mix and match with another. It is another hugely popular set. This normally sells at £20 on amazon so is another decent discount.

Lego 76917 Speed Champions 2 Fast 2 Furious Nissan Skyline GT-R (R34)

RRP £19.99

Launch date: 01/01/2023

Retirement date: 31/12/2024

Another £20 set, 25% off with this deal, but these speed champions can always be picked up at £15 – so not a spectacular deal with this one. But also not too shabby 

Another hugely popular LEGO set as well

Lego 41746 Lego Friends Riding school

RRP £24.99

Launch date: 01/06/2023

Retirement date: 31/12/2024

This set has only been out for a couple of months, 40% off on this deal which is good.

Cheapest have been able to get with this set since being on the market, the amazon price has progressively come down and now sits at 16.99.

Not sure where this price will settle but will never go much lower than the £15 price point. You always get less LEGO with the 4+ sets but see this being popular with the friends crew.

Lego 60396 City Modified race cars

RRP: £24.99

Launch date: 01/08/2023

Retirement date: 31/12/2024

This set is very new and only just came out, 40% off this set is a fantastic price point as well.

Looks like a good lego set that kids will love, 2 cars and 2 minifigures with some great customisable options to make whichever car you desire with guns and propellers galore.

Also an exclusive set so you won’t be picking this up in many places!

Again this won’t go much lower than this, excellent price at £15

Lego 75359 Ahsoka’s clone trooper battle pack

RRP £18.99

Launch date: 01/08/2023

Retirement date: 31/12/2024

Another brand spanking new set in the 2 for 30 is this clone trooper battle pack. Sure with the upcoming disney series this will be rather popular. 

One thing is that the price listed on argos is an inflated RRP at £21, The RRP is actually 18.99 so your true discount is little over 20% discount not a great discount, but quite standard for star wars sets which you are less likely to see 40% off.

It will be very popular, if you want it now, then £15 is a good price point to snap it up. (More expensive at Amazon currently and RRP at LEGO)

Going into next year would expect to see this for about £12 on the good deals. 

So not as pick a % discount as the city sets but, think it is a great price on a new star wars set.

Are these investable?

From an investing point of view, it is not always a great idea to look at these sets as they have been this price for a long time, and many will have been picked up, but that is not always the case. I remember picking up Star Wars battle packs that were 2 for £15 for a long time, but due to their popularity, buying them for £7.05 (bit less than the £7.50 with discount. They were still flying out at £21 6 months after retirement so don’t discount them. 

But that being said at the moment all of these sets have retirement dates of next year so will be on the market until December 2024 most likely, meaning those investments are best placed elsewhere. 

I would be looking at many of these next year however at these prices.
