General Buying & Selling

I registered and they won't send my coupon. I am going to near one tomorrow and need it fast. Any ideas or solutions? Thanks.

How do you enter sealed minfigures cases of 60 into My Brickfolio? The only way I see is to enter by individual sealed bags and choosing the quantity? I just want it to be as accurate as possible when it comes to tracking the value of my investments, but entering them individually would have some of these sealed cases way over valued. Thanks in advance.

AKA my local Toys R Us. Only the second time I have ever been in one. They have the largest range of Lego I have seen, outstriping the Lego Store. Interestingly they had a lot of discontinued sets, most likely due to the prices they were charging. But some from memory.... 9476 Orc Forge

Check out this eBay listing: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lego-Lot-Variety-/281244592605?pt=Building_Toys_US&hash=item417b7be9dd So I contacted the seller to clarify if the sets included in the pictures are included because they do not match what is in the pictures. Their response was the pictures do not match the list and then quoted be $1000 extra if the Haunted House was included. LOL! Check out some of the prices they put on the sets too!

If I refund a buyer money, is that factored into my total sent to the IRS at the end of the year? Or do I have to write it off as a loss? Are partial refunds treated differently?

Excuse my noobness on the subject. Chowren toys?

2 credit cards compromised and counting (got to my Amazon card - impressive). Thanks Target! I get to play detective all morning. Check your statements brochachos

I found this forum by chance. I was searching for info about original LEGO catalogues. I own an old collection spanning from 1980 until 2003 and was wondering if there's a market for them? Do these get traded the same way as LEGO instructions? I'm located in Belgium and would appreciate any advice (or interest) other forum members might have. Many thanks!

Just like the title. Is it worth it to buy separate instruction books and stickers to a set if for a reasonable price?

Go forth and price match, it's OOS. Sad I missed this one, those dragons are sweeeet.

I have heard of buying sets with no minifigs in them but when I got home from Target and opened this set it had a black trash bag, a hardback novel and a bunch of cardboard puzzle pieces in it. The thing is the box was MINT and all four seals were perfect and intact. Is that something particular to this set? I feel pretty stupid as I had no cart and held the box in my hand and didn't even realize it. Well I had the Z 95 headhunter and an arch set all stacked up all taken to customer service for an ipad PM with target online.

Hi everyone! Hope you all had a great Christmas. I was just curious to hear how much legos everyone sold this Christmas. As for myself, I didn't start my listings on ebay until Dec.2...believe it or not, from Dec. 2- 25, I sold over 40k! I maxed out my account, and had to start using my girlfriend's account. Ebay gave her an increase on what she can sell per month, from 25k to 75k, because they noticed her selling so much. lol I sold mostly harry potter, friends, excavators, fire brigades.. The reason for me selling so much this month, is because I'm raising money to bet on a UFC fight on Dec.28 (Chris Weidman) I'm about 95% sure Chris will win the fight. Out o…

Ok so Its a first time for me.... I bought a LG Optimus *** digitizer over Ebay and I broke LCD display while trying to replace it so now I need both and since Display is not sold separately I want to make a return. I already contacted the seller who said np (his reply below) Now I wonder do I have to start something on Ebay? I will return the item on Monday... I Bought it on 17th December

Well, as clearance looks to be pretty disappointing and possibly non-existent for most of us, I want to see what people think about this retail season. What retailer did you buy from - or what retailer did the best pulling you in and why? Doesn't have to be the best sale - mostly encompassing the whole holiday season is what I am interested in. Highlights: Amazon - Cyber Monday basically a clearance sale. Black friday lightning deals. Walmart - I am counting the 10.99 fiasco. 30% off sets on Black Friday. ToysRUs - Random crazy good sales in between crap - and sort of finishing with crap. Gift cards were huge. Tons of huge discounts on Technic sets.…

I am a new seller on Ebay with only about 200 sales and a little over 100 feedbacks at 100 positive ratio. My problem Ebayer, with zero feedback, bought a Hulkcarrier 6868 and is now saying "I ordered the hulk carrier breakout set(6868) for my son for Christmas. The set was said to be new and sealed and appeared that way when delivered. However when we opened the set all bags where not sealed and all the figures were missing. The figures were why he wanted this set and he was devasted. This was his main gift and it really spoiled the holiday for him and his belief in Santa. I am hoping you can make this right and quickly please." I personally don't…

I wasn't doing this last year, and I thought this would be a good thing for everyone to know as well. When should we start cruising around for after Christmas Clearance? Walmart, Kmart, Target, TRU, Meijer - etc. Just give your experiences. One walmart already had mark downs that I went to, but haven't seen anything else.

My sister lives in CA and a few months ago I bought a 10217 from Amazon.com and now it' in my sister home (Amazon.com doesn't ship lego to italy) Which is the best/cheapest way to ship it to italy?

Hey all, Does anyone know how long it takes to void the shipping label (tracking) and receive a refund? I screwed up on the eBay shipping label, so had to redo it and still haven't had any updates (been over a week) on the voided label transaction... Thanks, Merry Christmas!

Lego freebies measure 5.5x4.5x2.5". Anybody have problems using 8.5x11" bubble mailers? Or would you recommend small boxes...

Hi. I am looking for a website that will advise of the value of individual pieces. I know that there is a price guide function on BrickLink that does this but I am looking for a reference website that shows the value of individual pieces. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

Hey, guys, I have bought bricks for MOC here and there and tried a couple of times using bricklink ordering some big chunks of pieces. In general, the sellers are quick in their shipping and handling and I do not seem to have any issue with any. Lately I order two $30-$40 lots and have found something interesting. This seller indicates the shipping/handling takes 5-10 days on the store page. I was okay with it. Given that the pieces I ordered are for some MOC I planned doing for Christmas gift, I placed my order in Oct. Then, I waited 3 weeks before contacting the seller that I did not receive anything yet and finally I received my package sent with a priority 2-day…

Hello, First off, if this post is not permitted on the forums, just delete it. Often I find myself browsing US online stores and always being surprised about how good you have it in the US with the price of Lego. Many of these stores don't ship to Australia and one of those is the Lego US store which is probably the worst due to its strict policy on Freight Forwarders. I am willing pay for this service say $10 per package forwarded, and even a little more if you went to local retailer and purchased a set and shipped it to Australia. Obviously there are issues of trust. So I'm looking for someone who is fairly trusted on these forums, good ebay feedbac…

Hi guys, We have a local eBay like platform in Switzerland named Ricardo, a VW Camper polybag sold for 52CHF yesterday, that's 57$! Not bad...should make those with several of them happy

Pretty much not a one of my packages in the last 3 days (about 100) have or will make it there in the normal transit time. USPS is doing everything they can to destroy some order in the shipping system. All of my priority 2 day are making it in 3 and all 3 in 4. Also first class has been like 6 days. I am only telling people it will be there if they pay for priority by today. Or overnight by tomorrow.

Overall I think it has been a pretty successful holiday season for most of us, I have done a lot of flipping and investing. Now that its close enough to Christmas where nobody can "steal" your flipping set ideas for this season I thought it would be fun to list what worked and what didn't. Some that Worked: Lego City Cargo Terminal: With BOGO at target and PM their website I paid about $71.48 with tax Sold for $130ish plus shipping. New Hobbit Sets. Used B&****** Coupons for these during BOGO. These were probably the most profitable. Architecture Sets, Particularly White House. -- I had never bought one of these before a month ago. I got the White House from…
