Little girls don't play with Legos as much as boys.

Wow. That didn't sound sexist at all. Nope.

Parents do need non-doll toys for girls.

Amen to that.

Which means higher prices for people that do have the Friends sets to resell. I can understand that people don't want to invest in sets that they don't have interest in, but for those people who want to think of LEGO sets as more of a commodity and don't really care about anything but making money, The Friends theme is the way to go. At these discounts, they are no brainers.

I agree to all of this. The only two AVATAR sets ever designed are going for the amount they can because the stock in the secondary market is extremely limited. The way how just about every member here says that they will not buy so much as one for investment sounds awfully similiar.

There is nothing wrong with just buying what you like to a point. But in some ways, investing is like marketing.

Sometimes you need to be willing to purchase what other people may like. Not everyone likes the same thing, you know?

My daughter laughs at me and says " are you looking at those purple boxes dad"

This just cracks me up! Ha ha!

Same. But I don't buy Friends sets because they do not have as large an audience as for example, Ninjago. Little girls don't play withe Legos as much as boys.

Wrong. My girls are playing with LEGO sets for the first time (about 5 or 6 or so from "Friends" theme) and those sets are getting way more playtime than most of the other toys they have. They seem to enjoy following instructions (spatial awareness).

Glad I introduced them to LEGO sets and my wife and I use the same tools to find LEGO Friends sets at least 20% or more off - if we see one, we quickly get it.

LEGO City Police Forest Station 4440 $56.57 29% off. PREVIOUSLY 23% off.

I am actually really excited about getting Wolverine's Chopper Showdown for $14.97! I love those $20 sets that have three mini figs. They are a steal to begin with, and 25% off makes it even better!

I picked some up too....great price :-)

I'm a little pissed that the amount of 3183s you can get is two.

Thanks for posting. I missed out on the Farnsworth House though :(

Buy Friends sets. Great deals. Great returns. That is all!

I have to agree with Ed here. On the bright side if they dont sell I can always tell people I have lots of friends. :)

I caved and bought a few. My daughter won't be able to play and put them together for another 5 years or so. I might have turned them around by then and went on to the next thing. Oh well, now I'll have some and they were significantly discounted when I bought them.

I caved also. Bought 2

my friends collection keeps on growing and growing.... embarrasing. I have my daughter bring them up to the register, is that bad?

Great price. Lowest Walmart ever had it was $59.99

Lego Police station on sale for $79.97 now.

Looks like there are no sales listed on 3189 since Dec 3rd, but when I looked on Ebay directly it was doing rather well. What's up with that Ed?

9496 Desert Skiff is 28% off on Amazon.

Grabbed a few small sets from that list. LEGO Friends Stephanie's Cool Convertible 3183 LEGO Monster Fighters 9463 The Werewolf LEGO Star Wars Elite Clone Trooper and Commando Droid B 9488 LEGO SpongeBob Heroic Heroes of the Deep 3815

I am interested in 10221-1: Super Star Destroyer for investment purpose it is on sale at amazon for 380$ is it a good time to buy?

It has been as low as 309.00.........will probably be that price again before if EOLs

I also grabbed some friends. FYI Walmart in Worcester Ma, lego friends 4 different set 30% off, most out of stock at Lego or retired. This walmart is one of the biggest in the country. They had sooo much stuff in clearance, only lego though was friends. The other walmart about 15 minutes away had the Ghost train at 54 and QuinJet at 49. The walmart I was at had a few Castles and about 6 Ghost trains at full retail. I will have to keep checking in at this one.

The Hobbit 79010: The Goblin King Battle is currently 37% off on AMazon.co.uk

That werewolf set looks amazing for moc builders, 243 pieces for $13? It seems to have good pieces too, maybe someone can fill me in but if I can sell the minifigs off for $2 apiece, I still get the rest of the set for an amazing deal.

Where I live I can sell the werewolf alone for $6, not to brag.

The $2 is just a worse case guess, I have no idea what the going rate is for it, it would be great if I could more money from it.
