Ordered the following: 30x 60150 Pizza Van @ £7.20 (RRP £14.99) each from JD Williams using various codes and cashback. 65x 60134 Bus Station @ £19.99 (RRP £39.99) from John Lewis. 73x 10804 DUPLO Jungle @ £17.99 (RRP £44.99) from John Lewis. I wiped them out as these babies are my deal of the year so far! I'm flipping the lot as soon as I collect them. Duplo is a dark horse and I remember buying 10552 Creative Cars also from John Lewis @ £4.99 about 3yrs ago and sold all 50 the next Xmas for £24.99 each. You got the pizza vans yet? What do you think of JD packaging? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not yet, but they're "on their way" and they should arrive at the pick-up point (local Budgens) within another week. It's a slow process, but I don't care if the condition is good. I'll report back once I receive them. They could only send 28 as 2 were cancelled. Some greedy bugger must've bought all the rest! ;-) I have a load of Friends Riding Clubs on their way from JDW too. Pizza Vans won't be investor sets so I'm not too anal about boxes. Everything else from John Lewis has been collected and is all in mint condition.

Fenix_2k1 Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 With regards to jdw packaging I had some riding clubs delivered earlier this week. At first I was worried as they came in a bag, however upon opening each set was in its own cardboard box. I had the same with some polys I ordered. All in their own individual padded envelopes. I wonder if they just pack them as they receive them for easier shipping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Riding Clubs are going to be a nice little earlier at around £20 each ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thoroakenfelder Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 Not exactly bought today, but I got a 10026 UCS Naboo Starfighter in some Goodwill lots I bought. Good news is, I had no idea it was there when I bought the lot, bad news, it's not complete. So I was looking at the parts list, trying to figure out if it was worth trying to complete it. I was suddenly wondering why is the light gray wedge 6x2 right like 10% of the value of the left one. They should be equally as rare only appearing in this set and the UCS Snowspeeder.

This leads to a mismatch between the amount of paired parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This leads to a mismatch between the amount of paired parts. LEGO bricks suffer a lot of colour inconsistencies these days, especially grey and yellow pieces. I've had to send my last Caterham 7 back to LEGO as there were so many difference shades of Yellow that it looked ridiculous. For that reason, I'm not buying C7 to invest as I may be getting returns. At least the Yellow Submarine has bits of Orange to make it less obvious and the QA seems a lot better with this set. C'mon LEGO, sort yourseves out otherwise Booger-Bricks will win (their colours are better too!). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus it being a part/color combo only found in 2 expensive sets, it seems weird that one side is $7+ and the other is $.70. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't get all the extra discounts that you found but at 50% off I should be ok. I'm just glad that most of your bulk buys are also sold in bulk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another explanation - someone has made a big LEGO project in the past and had needed only the one sided part. So this part became more expensive after...

Phil B Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 (edited) 10x 10704 @ $18 each. Found an end-cap full of damaged ones still at the BF price at one of my WMs. Dept.Mgr gave 10% off. Not a problem as I'm parting these out. Now what's the easiest way to get my pickups canceled and my money back on the ones I ordered on BF?

Popular Post cladner Posted December 1, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted December 1, 2017 (edited) x4. pre-xmas clearance always seems like your getting away with something when there's 20 something adults milling about looking for toys walking right past these unmarked beauties sitting on an endcap by the bikes.
