If you told me a couple years ago I would be a moderator having 10,000 posts under my belt ranked as Chairman of the Brick with a Haunted House on permanent display from earned points, I would thought you were crazy yet here I am or better here we are. I honestly wasn

Just got the update from eBay that all my files are available. I took a quick look and do see them there, so tonight I will start to work on the price guide update. Since I am doing two months, it will take a bit longer than normal, but hopefully it should be there by Wednesday/Thursday. I have fixed a bunch of the migration bugs, so sporadic errors should start to be minimizing. Again, thank you for your patience, trust me, I know it's annoying when things don't work right.

I don't even know who you are....?

Love ya work! Grats on the 10k,

Man, just remember. We have had to read all those

Don't make the mistake of thinking that RAID is a backup system, because it's not. It's just a way of keeping your server up-and-running during a disk crash. You should always backup critical data, regardless of the RAID level you're using.

Can we get a count on how many of those posts were memes or videos?

I bought a MISB Cafe Corner for almost $600 after watching the values of this gaudy and tacky set continue to rise from $300 in a few months. It was then I realized that the Modulars were a fan favorite.

Tell me about it. I can remember that yet can't remember what I did yesterday. Ha. Quoted for truth.

Lol...it's funny that you remember that I am an achiever. I haven't had the dude and Walter as my profile pic for quite some time now. Best. Movie. Ever. Sent from my iPhone using Brickpicker

I always enjoy your posts, TOK. Keep them coming, especially the youtube clips! Sometimes things get a little too serious around here and your sense of humor helps to keep things in perspective. Congrats!

Alright here is my request: Whenever this set does retire, us brickpickers own the second hand market. So can we all just agree to jack up our prices to like 2,500$?!

Congrats, TOK! I remember when I first joined up, you and Stephen were already dominating in post count. The forum has definitely come a long way, with you playing a huge role in its development! See you in 1,111 posts!

Congrats on 10k.

Hey OrcKing, mad props for making it to 10,000 posts!

Woot!

I did not know you already posted 8000 youtube clips on the forum Congrats!

Funny how just 7 months ago everyone on this site would do anything to get their hands on those sets ( discounted price was nice but not necessary)

And I was feeling good about passing 500 last week! Two thumbs up!

First sets I bought with no intention of quick-flipping were 2 Grand Emporiums. I have a couple of Live Stars I got just before the no-discounts policy went into effect which are at this point long term investments, even though I wasn't thinking of them as such when I bought them over a year ago. *Sigh*. (It only took a year, but I'm finally at the point where I'm actually investing...next thing you know, I'll be making snide remarks about quick-flipping low lifes LOL)

Congrats!

or more likely this is exactly how an inventory system works when it goes from thousands available to just a handful available.

This forum, and people like you, have ruined my life!!!!

Great job TOK - keep the hitz coming...

Nice job Orc! I think this forum has enhanced my life a little. Definitely financially!

Thanks for all you do to keep things fun and relevant!

great post Orc King!

10000 like CUUSOO? Shouldn't you be made into a Lego set then !

Congrats TOK..keep them post coming

Congrats and thanks for contributing to make the forum enjoyable to follow.

Big ups

Chin chin !

I still don't believe we don't have a set (any theme or region availability) based on a famous sports arena/ field / ballpark. ~1960s versions of Dodger Stadium, Wrigley, Fenway, Solider Field, or Yankee Stadium would prob sell well if priced no more than $240. Even an smaller Architecture special edition like Marina Sands would be fine with me. Oh well.

Great job!

Great job TOK! Congrats on 10,000 posts!

Awesome and congrats! You've done well for brickpicker so keep it up. Cheers to the next 10,000!

Congrats man.

Man it's annoying when you're working away on BrickLink and every darn time I get interrupted by the nightly site maintenance at 1:50AM. I'm on the west coast so that's only 10:50pm. With the family asleep my Lego day is just getting started..... Of course I come here to catch up on the day's posts... but still......

Lego celebrates its 15th anniversary since the first wave of releases for Star Wars in 1999! Amazing it really has been that long, huh? via The Brick Fan

Benny's Spaceship, Spaceship, SPACESHIP!! At TRU with the 20% off coupon. This one still had it at MSRP. Side note - I printed the scanned coupon from the daily deals thread, cashier didn't even flinch just scanned it and tossed it in the trash haha. This is for me to build. My birthday is coming up and I'm going to have my wife wrap it and give it to me. Can't wait to see the look on my son's face, haha.

I like your confidence! I hope it's "when" and not "if."

Made my first purchase today of lego to hold and sell after EOL or to flip quickly havent decided yet. Only very very new to lego investing/forums/blogs. I bought town square 60026 for

My first buy for resell was one of the modulars. I think it was either Pet shop or Grand Emporium. I don't think you can go wrong with any of the modulars as long as you buy at a discount and keep them for awhile after they are discontinued..

Top contender for funniest comment of the year.

Found 9473 for $54. Bought one and left a few on the shelf, am thinking I should go back and pick them up

I hate it when mods erase me posts. (watch this one will probably get erased) We should be able to erase mods posts.

I always put 15 for online dating. Then I have the NBC news team waiting when they show up.

The groom is missing his ball and chain.

That's another important fact to keep in mind. With sets this size, after all shipping and fees are taken out, even if the set doubles in value your profit will never be that high, unless you sell several of them.
