They are still on the shelves because they are ridiculously overpriced.

^This. My TRU still has a ton of them. They aren't moving b/c they're priced at $19.99. I've been looking out for them to go on clearance but it doesn't look like it will happen

I thought I had the list but apparently, I don't.

 

I think maybe someone was asked to remove it from their site. IIRC, I think one was a TRU.

The TRU near me has a ton of these too still on the shelf.  I thought they would be discounted by now, but they are still holding on to the $19.99 price tag. uggh.  

 

In one of those leaked set lists it had the names of four new bricktober sets but I can't remember what they were .. No photos though.

Whaat? I thought the 2014 Bricktober sets were meant to be quick-flipped for $120 last year and all QFLL live happily ever after? What happened to that plan?

I kept my 7 complete sets. It's only $$.

There are a ton of these on my TRU shelves as well for $19.99. I'm trying to decide whether I should work some discount magic tomorrow and buy a bunch.  I think I can pretty easily get these down to ~$15 with TRUTH and some discounted gift cards already in hand.  However, forecasting the value of the 2014 version is the tricky part.  Looking at Amazon these are currently listed for ~$20.  Therefore, one would have to believe they would go up to be worth messing with.  I believe last year during Bricktober these sets were going for ~$30.  Anyone care to venture a guess as to value once series 2 comes out???

I just bought a full set for $60+ shipping off ebay, they aren't cheaper on bricklink

Curious if you are all still seeing the 2014 sets on the shelves. I'm starting to get offers in the $20/set range but for multiple sets only. IE: $80 per set for multiple 4 set packages including shipping.

Not sure if i want to cash out and call it a wash, or hold on for a (hopeful) ride up.

Why not wait and see with the new ones coming?

I just bought the one set, so I could have something to pair with this year's stuff

I figure at $60, it should hit $100 pretty easy

Here's a New Elementary article covering all four of these Bricktober mini-modular sets. A longtime coming but better late than never and you can read why in the article.
