The formula
Shelf total = sum of light kits + sum of cases or frames + power extras + shipping per store + any import charges. Write each line separately, because each store charges shipping on its own order, and each store's free-shipping rules apply only to its own order.
Lightailing's shipping policy, read on 30 October 2026, says free standard shipping applies to orders of $69 or more in eligible regions. It says free express shipping may be available at $200 or more, that smaller orders pay shipping calculated at checkout, and that remote areas and oversized products may be excluded. It also says the recipient pays customs duties and taxes where they apply. [9] BRKOX's shipping policy gives no free-shipping threshold. It says shipping is calculated at checkout, ships to the United States, United Kingdom, Canada and Australia, and states that all duties and taxes are included. [10]
Power extras are the line most often missed. Lightailing's FAQ says power options vary by kit (USB, battery box or both), that batteries for a battery box are not included, and that you should not use an incompatible or higher-voltage power source. [11] BRKOX's Hubble kit listing says it is battery-powered without saying whether batteries are included, and its Titanic kit listing says "USB-powered lighting design" without naming an adapter. [7][2]

|---|---|---|
| Light kits | Each kit's product page | Yes: listed prices below |
| Case or frame | Each case's product page | Yes: listed prices below |
| Batteries or USB adapter | Your local price; check the kit's power line | No: assumption you fill in |
| Lightailing shipping | $0 standard at $69+ in eligible regions; otherwise quoted at checkout | Partly |
| BRKOX shipping | Quoted at checkout by destination | No: get the checkout quote |

Worked example 1: a three-set shelf
Sets: Titanic 10294, Concorde 10318 and Hubble Space Telescope 11382. Prices are as listed on 30 October 2026, before tax.
Titanic kits were listed at both stores: $81.99 for Lightailing's wave-sensor kit and $89.00 for BRKOX's kit. [1][2] The Lightailing Concorde kit was $32.99. [3] BRKOX listed the Hubble kit at $59.00 (Touch Version) or $89.00 (Remote Version). [7]
Ordering Titanic and Concorde from Lightailing gives $114.98, which is over the $69 standard threshold, so standard shipping should be $0 in an eligible region. Add BRKOX's Hubble Touch kit at $59.00 and the shelf costs $173.98 plus BRKOX's checkout shipping and any batteries.
The threshold changes the comparison. Ordered alone, the Concorde kit ($32.99) is under $69 and pays Lightailing shipping. Buying the Titanic kit from BRKOX instead would save nothing on the kit ($89.00 against $81.99) and would leave the Lightailing order below the threshold.
| Item (30 Oct 2026) | Store | Listed price |
|---|---|---|
| Titanic 10294 wave-sensor kit | Lightailing | $81.99 |
| Concorde 10318 kit | Lightailing | $32.99 |
| Lightailing subtotal (over $69 standard threshold) | Lightailing | $114.98 + $0 standard shipping in eligible regions |
| Hubble 11382 kit, Touch Version | BRKOX | $59.00 + checkout shipping |
| Shelf total before BRKOX shipping and batteries | Both | $173.98 |
| Per set | about $57.99 |
Worked example 2: a six-set shelf with a minifigure case
Sets: Titanic 10294, Concorde 10318, Avengers Tower 76269, Millennium Falcon 75375, Eiffel Tower 10307 and Hubble 11382. A BRKOX 124-figure case holds the minifigures from the shelf. Five of the kits come from Lightailing's store, two of them under the BriksMax name; the Hubble kit and the case come from BRKOX.
Lightailing-store prices on 30 October 2026: Titanic $81.99, Concorde $32.99, Avengers Tower (Lightailing) $79.99, Millennium Falcon 75375 (BriksMax) $23.39, shown against a compare-at price of $35.99, and Eiffel Tower 10307 (BriksMax) $115.99. That totals $334.35. [1][3][4][5][6] It is over $200, so free express shipping "may be available" in eligible regions under the policy, and free standard shipping applies at $69 or more. [9]
BRKOX order: Hubble Touch kit $59.00 plus the 124 LEGO Star Wars minifigures wall display case at $189.90, giving $248.90 plus checkout shipping. [7][8] The shelf comes to $583.25 before BRKOX shipping and batteries, or about $97.21 per set. Without the minifigure case it is $393.35, about $65.56 per set.
| Order | Items | Subtotal | Shipping rule applied |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lightailing store | Titanic, Concorde, Avengers Tower, Millennium Falcon (BriksMax), Eiffel Tower (BriksMax) kits | $334.35 | Free standard at $69+; free express may be available at $200+ (eligible regions) |
| BRKOX | Hubble Touch kit, 124-figure Star Wars case | $248.90 | Calculated at checkout; duties included per policy |
| Shelf | Six lit sets plus one case | $583.25 + BRKOX shipping + batteries | About $97.21 per set before those extras |
Assumptions and limits
These examples are arithmetic on listed prices. They are not quotes. Before you rely on a total:
- Prices, compare-at prices and stock change; recheck each product page on the day you order.
- Free-shipping rules apply only in the regions each store treats as eligible, and may exclude remote areas and oversized items.
- BRKOX shipping is quoted only at checkout, so we left it as a blank you fill in.
- Battery and USB adapter costs are local; Lightailing says battery-box batteries are not included; BRKOX's Hubble page did not say whether batteries are included, and its Titanic page did not name a USB adapter.
- Sales tax, VAT and duties depend on your country; the two stores state different policies.
- We did not test fit, brightness or power draw; kit choice should follow the set-match and power guides.
Questions before you decide
Does Lightailing have free shipping?
Its shipping policy, read 30 October 2026, offers free standard shipping on orders of $69 or more in eligible regions and says free express shipping may be available at $200 or more. Remote areas and oversized products may be excluded.
Does BRKOX charge duties on top of the price?
BRKOX's shipping policy, read 30 October 2026, says all duties and taxes are included and that shipping is calculated at checkout. It lists shipping to the United States, United Kingdom, Canada and Australia.
Are batteries included with the light kits?
Lightailing's FAQ says batteries for a battery box are not included. BRKOX's Hubble kit page says the kit is battery-powered but does not say whether batteries are included, and its Titanic kit page describes USB power without naming an adapter, so ask before ordering.
