Lego really is overpriced, they probably still make a profit at £3.50. Now that most of it is made in the Far East and Eastern Europe for a pittance it makes the price sting even more. Should be 100% made in Denmark.

the retailers don't make any profit on sale items, they just clear shelves for now stock which will bring them profit.
they don't even break even on the few last boxes they clear but in a long run they may have sold 1000's of boxes so the last few 100's does not matter. 30% off RRP is the usual Lego discount for large buyers. huge buyers may have better discount but would be surprised if it is more than 40%. they probably paid about £8-£9 for this set.
have fun!
