Might want to look into this set, its part of the previous Castle theme, released in 2009 i believe and is currently back ordered through July 16th, i imagine this set will be discontinued very soon. http://shop.lego.com/en-US/Medieval-Market-Village-10193

Yes this set has been around for awhile now and seems like it is nearing the end of the road. It is a good set with great price per piece (1602/$100).

Ive got one of these built and one for investment but i would love to pick up a few more, like you said the price per piece is great and would be great for any medieval/castle village creation.

Very popular set and good bang for your buck. I can see this set doubling it's value a short time after it is discontinued.

The back order date has been pushed back to Aug 2nd. Looking more and more like this set is on the way out.

I have had one back ordered for about a month. I am curious to see if it will ship.

So I asume it is about time I pick this set up then?

I also purchased this along with 10217 Diagon Alley about a month ago from LEGO. Diagon Alley finally shipped last week. But this one is still on backorder until July for me. I wanted to build it and see if I liked it before buying a second copy for investment. (same thing I want to do with Diagon Alley, but haven't built it yet. It seemed smaller and lighter than I was expecting) Anyone else like Diagon Alley for investment? I know there was a blog on it on here...

Decided to pick the set up. Looks like it is getting pretty hard to find.

Picked up another 10193 today at the LEGO store. They only had 2 left and no more coming in. I guess this is the EOL for The Medieval Marketplace.

Guess I'm SOL.

I was at TRU this weekend and did not see any MMV in stock. Surprisingly they still had 3 Mill Village Raids in stock. All in great condition but unfortunately all with the TRU $20 markup on them. The best bet to get MMV is to order it from LEGO Shop at Home and hope for the best.

Hint....Target

Thanks for the hint! 5% off and free shipping with a Red card.

UPDATE: MM is about to die soon. http://shop.lego.com/en-US/Medieval-Market-Village-10193 http://www.brickpicker.com/bpms/set.cfm?set=10193-1

Looks like #10193 may be gone for good. Lego shop has it retiring soon, had "Call for Availability" yesterday, and today it says sold out.

No longer available from LEGO Shop at Home Spain or Germany, so I assume form none of the EU locations. Has the day finally arrived?

I sure hope so!! Now we can continue waiting for this to happen to the DS and FB haha

Hopefully, since no one is ever expecting the DS to go EOL anymore - we will get surprised. I thought they would go away 2 1/2 years ago & loaded up on them.

I got one of the last ones from LEGO.com for $99USD (it said "call for availability and they gave me a 50/50 chance of receiving it). :D

If you could buy this set for $79.99, how many would you buy?

I would definitely pick up a couple. I don't think it will be a home run since it has been widely available for so long, but it is a very cool set that will always be wanted by Castle enthusiasts. I firmly believe this will be a $150-200 set in a few years, especially if the Castle line makes a true comeback like it looks like and people want to have this villager set.

I have 2 and have always planned on building one of them to go with some of the other Castle stuff.

LegoShop.com has it available in US today. I just called and placed an order. It must be in limited quantities because you can't order it online.

Worth getting a few for 150$ each? Since everyone's been investing in this, I don't see this growing too soon despite being a fantastic set.
