BrickChick Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 I've just started buying. Came home yesterday to a pile of boxes by the front door. Had a blast opening them after my son went to bed! Got two Ectos, a Parisian Restaurant, a Detective's Office and a Pet Shop. Still waiting on a Red 5 and a Palace Cinema. I can't wait to do more shopping this week. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be careful buying is the easy part....selling and making a good profit is the harder part. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrickChick Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 Someone has the buying bug! Be careful buying is the easy part....selling and making a good profit is the harder part.Yes, it is very easy to buy! Luckily, this is for investment purposes, so almost everything will be held long-term. I have a separate business to run, so I don't want to get sucked in to flipping as it's very time-consuming. Going to have some fun with this, though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freakchem Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 Received 15 R2D2 from our one of forum members. Well packed and comes in great condition. I even didn't pull them out but directly throw the whole boxes to my storage. I won't meet them again until Christmas season. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

speedsausage Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 I finally cashed all my VIP points in plus $50US and picked up a Sandcrawler for me and the architecture studio for the wife. The bonus was since I missed out on the May the fourth promo, the manager (I believe) gave me a Darth Revan poly bag! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seapotato Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 I ordered the Indominus Rex Jurassic World set. Didn't really want to buy when it was just released but it was on sale...! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpinemaps Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 Winter Village Bakery 10216. Used from eBay. It was the last of the Winter Village sets that I needed. Everything else I've either already bought, or put together through BrickLink. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

biking_tiger Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 Bought a single Brainiac Attacks today. Love the set and the minis in it. Convinced this is never going on sale. Lol I just wanted to make sure I had one for myself at this point.I sold one to a grandma (well, convinced her to buy one at Target today). She was in the LEGO aisle with her grandsons, and one of them kept going on about how it was "rare". I just said "It is a Target exclusive," and we started a five minute conversation about the value of LEGO. She wouldn't let go of the set, saying, "I wonder if they'll even restock it." I think someone just found a new retirement job. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
