Q: How do pre-orders and backorders work?

Backorders We say sets or pieces are available for ‘backorder’ when they’re not currently available, but we expect them to be back in stock soon. Backordered items can be ordered and will ship when they're back in stock at our warehouse. You’ll receive an email notification when your backordered items are shipped. Shipping dates for backordered items are shown on the product page, in your shopping bag and in the order summary at checkout. Pre-orders Pre-orders are sets that haven't been released and are coming soon. They'll ship as soon as they become available and you’ll receive an email notification when your pre-ordered items are on their way to you. Shipping dates for pre-ordered items are shown on the product page, in your shopping bag and in the order summary at checkout.

Question 7

How do pre-orders and backorders work?

Accepted Answer

Backorders
We say sets or pieces are available for ‘backorder’ when they’re not currently available, but we expect them to be back in stock soon. Backordered items can be ordered and will ship when they're back in stock at our warehouse. You’ll receive an email notification when your backordered items are shipped. Shipping dates for backordered items are shown on the product page, in your shopping bag and in the order summary at checkout.

Pre-orders
Pre-orders are sets that haven't been released and are coming soon. They'll ship as soon as they become available and you’ll receive an email notification when your pre-ordered items are on their way to you. Shipping dates for pre-ordered items are shown on the product page, in your shopping bag and in the order summary at checkout.

Question 8

What if my order includes both pre-order and backorder items?

Accepted Answer

If your order includes both pre-order or backorder items and other in-stock items, the in-stock items will ship separately. Any free or promotional items you qualify for will ship with the next available items in your order. The expected shipping dates for products on backorders or pre-orders may change based on factors such as changing arrival schedules or incoming stock availability.

Question 9

How do gift orders work?

Accepted Answer

To help keep your LEGO gift a surprise, we’ll ship it in a plain, unmarked box. You can also choose a different delivery address, so the package doesn’t get spotted.

If you’ve chosen delivery to a different address, we’ll assume it’s a gift and leave out the price and billing details.

Question 10

Can I edit or cancel my order?

Accepted Answer

You’ll be able to cancel your order until its status shows as ‘In Warehouse’. You can track its delivery status from your ‘My Orders’ page.

If none of the items in your order have an ‘In Warehouse’ status yet, and you’d like to cancel it, select ‘Manage my order’. Then, click ‘Cancel Order’ and follow the remaining steps. It’s super easy!

If your order includes only pre-order or backorder items, you’ll be able to cancel it up to 5 business days before the estimated delivery date.
