Depending on how how high these auctions go I think that this could be profitable. I would totally jump on it if I had the time to resale them, but at the present moment I just dont also the Wifey would kill me if I bought these huge boxes. She already complains that we dont have enough room (even when I bought a mandalorian battle pack) lol!! She will be singing a different tune when my sets EOL!!! http://www.ebay.com/itm/Factory-Case-of-90-Sealed-LEGO-STAR-WARS-Brickmasters-20018-20019-/221122196112?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item337be8f290 http://www.ebay.com/itm/Factory-Case-of-94-Sealed-LEGO-STAR-WARS-Brickmasters-20018-20019-/221122201850?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item337be908fa if anyone from here does bid and win one of these auctions, I would be interested how they work out, quite nicely I would think!

Silly me was thinking the winning bid would have been around 150.00 or so. still have 6 hours left and they are both around 220. I think these might get well over 300.00. Still some money to be made I guess.

Any chance of that happening, ended when you posted this topic. There were only a handful of watchers of this listing when you first posted it, now there are over 40. When you discover an overlooked opportunity, you should keep it to yourself. At least until after the auction - then (after you win it) you can reveal your score. If you put the time & effort into looking for hidden treasures (maybe a hidden printed leg boba in a pile of otherwise worthless minifigs) and no one else sees it - you are the one who deserves to be rewarded.

I never intended to bid on either one of these auctions. That is why I posted the original post. I was hoping that someone from here bids and wins it. Like I stated previously, I do not have the time or the room to flip these. I assume someone that is reading this does though!

Dozens of cases of these Brickmaster sets seemed to show up out of nowhere a few months ago (these sets used to be pretty expensive). Same thing with the suposedly exclusive Darth Maul minifig packs. I never found any other official release on them & yet it seems like a never ending supply has continued to pour out from overseas.

The Brickmaster sets from several months ago were from a storage container auction. I know, because I wrote the EBAY seller. He had 30+ cases and I bought a couple.

Thanks Ed - Its always nice to know the story. I bought a few cases myself - Early on, I was hoping that it was limited & that the market wouldn't get flooded (but then they just kept coming).

Yeah, people flood the market. That's why I backed off of those two listings today. I think the buyer still got a great deal at around $5-$6 a set. I got a nice deal off of the same seller. I bought 60 new in case Bionicle sets for $275. They are valued a little over $700. So not a bad day.

Yea - I was tempted to avg down until they got up to about $5 a set, but even then too much is too much. You can get so caught up in the value, that you forget about the demand.
