It can be dodgy so take somebody with you if there's a lot at stake. I no longer trade at home or even close to it. Quote
thebrickdad Posted October 20, 2018 Posted October 20, 2018 Finally succumbed to buying the 42056 Porsche because the price was finally right... £129.60 from Argos eBay after voucher and CB.Collected it today in a mint shipping carton. Argos finally got something right. Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk 1 Quote
Scatterbug Posted October 20, 2018 Posted October 20, 2018 (edited) My local Smith's unearths more tanker trucks and starter sets from 2010 so scooped an armful for about £10 each. eBay £1 fvf this weekend too. Also took a few prison transports at £7.50 but they'll go back if they don't sell quickly. Edited October 20, 2018 by Scatterbug 1 Quote

Scatterbug Posted October 20, 2018 Posted October 20, 2018 Prison seems to do better than money but I wouldn't describe either as gold here. Let's see if I get any takers. A few more left on the shelf if they get snapped up. Quote

Expand The new round of special purchases aka ex-direct stock seems decent, Capitol buildings and Rathtar escapes at £21.25 (though these seem like pricing errors, I expect they will correct them to £50ish).

Expand Sadly not, most of them got them in on the Saturday and had sold them over the weekend, my store is terrible at working non food delivery on time so still had them in the back Alas the £21 Capitols and Rathtars got put up to £50 as well before they restocked, so you've got those two, Resistance Bomber, Krennic Shuttle, U-Wing, Friends Hospital, Goblin King Castle all at £50, should be a field day when they drop to £25 in 4 weeks time.

Lego Benito Posted November 2, 2018 Posted November 2, 2018 Annoying that my local Tesco never has this stuff. They did, and probably still do, have 100s of the Uni Kitty box. Quote

Scatterbug Posted November 2, 2018 Posted November 2, 2018 Jeff Friesen's Micro Cities book. In my eyes he's the best designer out there. Time to put a Brick Link order in for hundreds of 1x2 clear and trans plates. 1 Quote
