BrickLegacy Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Two on the shelf at a local Walmart just last week. Went back yesterday and poof. I probably should have bought these at $28 all day long from Amazon for the 52 weeks they had it on sale. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I probably should have bought these at $28 all day long from Amazon for the 52 weeks they had it on sale. Target with the 5% redcard...but I guess you may not get taxed via Amazon, depending where you are. I put in 3 orders of 8 during that time. Glad I did!

Veegs Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 Dont understand it, so ugly. Lets see how the ecto will perform Ugly is in the eye of the beholder! And ugly doesn't stop people from buying. I think somewhere around 80-100 shipped by Christmas is totally reasonable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zskid00 Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 Dont understand it, so ugly. Lets see how the ecto will perform This set will do well because of the property and minifigures. People won't care that the car is a bit off model because it's an official LEGO set with the Back to the Future name on it. I think it would perform even better if the Delorean had a more appealing design, but it should do just fine. I agree that Ecto-1 will outperform it in the long run. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jay4e Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 I picked up a few of these when the local lego store had them on sale for $28 (+ flower cart). Generally when things are on sale at this stores its a good indication that the end is near, the other store close by never even bothers to tag sale items. overall the ecto-1 is a better model, and in the long run will see better returns. but with the hype of the new movie, its hard to say when it will EOL. I suspect the delorean will have a better ROI over the next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newbie77 Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 well, at least the number of sellers of delorean is less than number of sellers of RIs... last 2 weeks brought it down significantly. i am really really surprised at how fast "price" rose and the number of sellers declined. they were @ 246 if i remember correctly.

jaxman Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Is there an observable uptick in sellers when a set goes EOL? As in those who were waiting for post-retirement prices? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No More Monkeys Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Is there an observable uptick in sellers when a set goes EOL? As in those who were waiting for post-retirement prices? I think there was an uptick for SSD, but it could also be additional sellers realizing that it is going and being able to get a hold of leftovers once available stock dried up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cross Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 How about a follow-up Alex P. Keaton set to compliment Michael J. Fox's work in BTTF? Honestly, show me that smile again.

Brickbuilder.g Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 People who didn't buy this for investment were shortsighted This set goes to $80 by Christmas maybe even $100...$125-150 by Christmas 2016. Easy money for those who bought for under $30 ???? I only have about 25 and should have doubled up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
