Shop.LEGO.com data for France and Germany now available
Posted by Huw,
LEGO has made product feeds available for their French and German affiliate programmes which means that we can now show shop.LEGO.com price and availability information for these countries as well as for UK, USA and Canada.
If you are in France or Germany, or you change your country to one of them by clicking on the flag in the top corner, you will now see:
- Products just released in these countries when you click on the 'LEGOSHOP' tab in the sidebar of the home page.
- Price and availability dates on the set details pages.
- 'LEGO' links under 'Buy this set' in the set listings.
- Relevant information in the Buy section of the site.
We started gathering the data yesterday so at the moment everything will be shown as new, but over time, the lists and data will start to show useful information.
Brickset will forever be free to use and free of ads for members but it does cost money to run, so please use our affiliate links to shop.LEGO.com, Amazon, eBay and elsewhere so that we can stay online. Thanks!

Great!
Finally!
That is a *great* news ! Thanks a lot !
Vive la France ! ^^
A nice improvement !
That is awesome! Perfect birthday present. :)
@huw the shop.lego.com link is blocked by my company, is there a workaround?
Yes, get your company to unblock? :)
Huw, does having Germany include Austria & Switzerland as well (I believe it is considered as one sales region by LEGO.com)
If yes, all my LEGO.com traffic will be over Brickset!
Thanks
Is it possible to do the same with the norwegian url as well? I shop alot from the norwegian store and it would be nice if Brickset got some credits out of it..
Great new Huw, I know lots of people have been waiting for more localised Euro prices.
Expect an email about the API shortly so I can update myBrickset with the new data ;)
Unfortunately LEGO does not operate affiliate schemes in Australia, Switzerland or Norway. It does in Austria but there's no feed available yet (AFAIK).
^ The German price is already available via the API, I believe (as EURetailPrice)
^ Thanks Huw, I wondered what country the 'EU' price mapped to.
