10189 Taj - hard to find parts

111ins

I am looking to part together this set and I thought that there was a thread recently that had a list of the harder to find / more expensive parts. Any help would be appreciated as I think that it was mentioned that they were still available from LEGO directly.
Happy Building, Brian

Funny enough I brick linked the full set last night, minus the blue baseplates and some pieces I already have

Got about 20 of the rarer items from Lego customer service. Counting those that were cost prohibitive and others not available what I remember being left in the rare department were the rounded wall elements that form the towers, various technic beams - particularly the right angle brackets, grey 1x12 bricks, 1x2x2 panels, and some of the arches

Other pieces aren't necessarily rare, but they are rare in the needed large quantities. The white turntable bases come to mind

That's the one!

Thanks, Brian

So can the turntable be purchased from lego customer service only in these huge quantities? I don't see anything close on bricklink. Has anyone ordered recently and know cost per turntable? Thanks ,
