Popular Post brickvoyeur Posted December 7, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted December 7, 2022 (edited) Quote I'll read the Nightmare Before Christmas story this year, kids. Twas the night before Clearance And all through the aisle Steamrollers were packed Into my cart like a pile Exo Suits were hung In the storage with care Knowing that in a decade They still will be there Sergeant Jyn Erso was nestled Deep under my bed With terrible proportions And a face that looks dead Wonder woman in her armor And cheetah in her cap The lasso of truth will tell you That this set is pure crap When out on my doorstep A noise shook me awake ShopJustice still delivering Olaf Flat as a pancake Faster shipping than FedEx The turds as they came I cried and I pouted As I called them by name "Now, Dots! now, Mario! Now Lego Movie 1 and 2! On, Raiders! on, Mighty Dinos! On, Takodana and constractables too! To the depths of the dumpster! Stacked 50 feet tall Now throw away! throw away! throw away all!" Each year I make efforts To donate a bit more But Toys for tots sends a bill For returning them to my door Since I can't give them away I'll dig a big pit It's the final solution To get rid of this sh!t I shook as I laughed At the thought of relieving this pain It was nearly 3am So I looked quite insane As I poured the kerosene I cheered with delight "I'll light you on fire, So you're out of my sight" Edited December 7, 2022 by brickvoyeur 15 18 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firstofminifigs Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Been selling a lot on FB Marketplace locally, I noticed that after every transaction there is a prompt that asks if you sold on marketplace or elsewhere and for how much. What are the chances FB is collecting this info to report to IRS, send you a 1099 or otherwise? I usually choose the option that says "I'd rather not say" as I figure they have enough of my information 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are simply collecting data on everyone and everything to sell. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firstofminifigs Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 I am completely striking out on FB Marketplace. What size sets are you selling there? All I get is people asking if I'll taker $50 for a set I listed at $125I've been bundling the "losers" that I've purchased at 50-90% off RRP for 10-20% below RRP. For smaller sets I'll bundle 2-4 together and for larger sets I'll throw in a smaller set or polybag. Themed polybag bundles do well priced at $3-5 each. Staying in the $15-$60 range seems to be the sweet spot. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TANV Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 I just sold a 41630 Jack Skellington & Sally BH on BrickLink for about $32. Bought it for about $15 so not a bad deal, especially since BL now belongs to our LEGO Corporate Overlords. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HandyHand Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 I sold this promotional tile handed out at the opening of the LEGO Store Amsterdam: for €30. Nice price reduction on my 1989 Batmobile! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brickvoyeur Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 (edited) Sold my wife's copy of the 75192 UCS Falcon for $650 as the local listings were starting to get plentiful and I don't want to hold this forever since it's not retiring. A much worse return than the 2 hour hold, but still good enough for me. I don't have a fancy bot, but I did have two browser windows. One tabbed town to the right button, and the other with a mouse over it. Smashed "enter" with the left hand, and clicked with the right in succession.
