Pleygo service review

This is from what I can find or not find the first review of the Pleygo service that allows you to rent Lego sets for a monthly fee. This service has been compared to Netflix.

After I found out about it and researched over the Internet, I decided to join it and give it a try. As some of you have seen in earlier post, I enjoy playing, building, and collecting Lego sets. As of the date of this posting, I am waiting for the arrival of my first rental set of Legos.

The Pleygo company wants to share Legos with as many people as possible. Meaning that you can pay a small amount for the monthly service, you Lego Fan can enjoy a set for as long as you want and return it back to them postage paid. Why spend money on sets that your child may get bored with and/or lose, when you can spend less on the service and play with larger sets.

There are three types of memberships to choose from.
 "Fan" which runs $15 for small and medium Lego sets.
 "Super Fan" which runs $25 for small, medium, and Large Lego sets.
 "Mega Fan" which is the best deal of them all cost $49. With this membership you get small, medium, large, and huge Lego sets. These sets are the big sets that can set you back a couple of hundred dollars each.

As some people have read in other sites, this service has been compared to Netflix. I for one have been a member of Netflix for several years and still enjoy it. But looking back to the beginnings of Netflix, it took some time for DVDs to get to those homes that are further away from the mailing site. Well that is where Pleygo is at right now. They send out the Lego sets from California. It could take close to five days for me to get the sets, one day to put them together and review, five days for them to receive it, and the process starts all over again. I could get as few as three sets and as many as four in one month. The reason for this is that I live in South Carolina.

Pleygo, if you need a place on the east coast let me know I will. Be more than happy to run your East Coast distribution office for you.

I love forward to getting you more information on this service as soon as I can review it.
