MartinP Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 I was looking on craigslist today and I noticed one listing that stood out to me. The listing is for a 10187 Volkswagen Beetle for $700. The sellers says that the set is new in the box, and that the box has no flaws in it. I think that the set is overpriced. I usually see sets under priced on craigslist. This is the first time I have seen a set overpriced. Here is a link. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comicblast Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 You will forever find overpriced LEGO sets, and overpriced things in general. Just took a glance at the price on Amazon. It's actually not that much over the BrickPicker value of $550. Head over to Amazon, and you can pick one up for $576.95. So much for heavily inflated prices on retired sets.

tonysbricks Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Wow that box is far from flawless. There is one on ebay right now with a crispy box and free shipping with an OBO, can probably land it for 575. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoNotInsertIntoMouth Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Yeah normally craigslist has deals, you just might get shot or violated in some manner. In this case, since its a bad deal, maybe they will be really nice? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not have the money right now to spend on anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MartinP Posted September 15, 2013 Author Share Posted September 15, 2013 Did you build the xwing you got yet? I built it. Right after I got it from the store, I had to leave for my high school retreat, so I could not start building it for two days. After that was done I finally started to build it. It was an awesome experience building. It is now being displayed on the coffee table in the family room until I find a spot to display it.
