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.

Hi I am New to Brickpicker.com!!!, for almost year I created video review of LEGO set with stop motion animation for fun! You are more welcome to see the all cool video here DeafpilotboyTV at youtube.com. Enjoy!! Also more info at deafpilotboy.com

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!

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!

The only thing I have on permanent display is my threadbare wallet.

Congrats on 10k.

Congratulations on your success with finding happiness.

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!

Congratulations TOK!! You`ve hit a tremendous milestone! Hope this doesn`t mean you`ll just stop posting now, though I`m sure some part of you would like a vacation?

no problem at all. I've seen so many posts saying that Lego is 'screwing' with us that it and like you were serious. As to your note about the system being triggered by Phantom stock. I think there are plenty of legit issues that could make a system behave like this. There's failed payments, mistyped 3 digit CC codes, billing addresses not matching, etc that could take the final batch of items and throw them into a temporary state of. .. we're not sure if these are really sold or not. It might take cs reps several attempts to call customers and untangle all these issues. Some are true failed payments and the item becomes available, some get resolved. All of this happens all the time but is hidden by the 100's in inventory. This is just my theory of what we're seeing.

Congrats!

Did I miss the post about GE being removed from TRU.com or is this a new revelation?

My first set I ever bought for resell was Dino 5887 for $69. But then I opened it My first set that I actually kept was Vampyre Castles. 3 of them. Still have them along with a hoarde of others. Damn you TRU.

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

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!

Congrats TOK..keep them post coming

Congrats on 10K!

Big ups

Mad props for the YouTube ambassador...

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!

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......

If this is the case why didn't we see the Delorean go out of stock while they changed the box? The Rover may come back but I don't think it will have anything to do with the box. Sent from my iPad using Brickpicker

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."

I had to leave in a hurry yesterday and didn't even watch the video through before uploading it to youtube. Here is the link with correct audio. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qw12Ppobmc0

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.

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

I was doing some shopping at my favorite Target today. It is worth mentioning that I was there two days ago, and they didn't have anything worthwhile LEGO-wise. Being the eternal LEGO optimist, I decide to check the LEGO aisle again. And there it was...on the top shelf, all by itself, with rays of sunlight beaming down on it. The Zombies 9465! Now before anyone gets too excited, the box is in pretty bad shape. I'm talking maybe a 6/10 for condition. Regardless, I was beside myself with excitement. Horrible condition aside, the good news didn't stop there. I got to the checkout, fully prepared to pay $39.99 for it. Then it rung up at $27.98! On top of this, I found a Desert Skiff set that someone had returned. It was on clearance for $17.48. Also a pretty sweet deal! The point of this thread is not to gloat, no sir! The moral here is that if you live close enough to a retail outfit that carries LEGO, it would benefit you to check back as frequently as possible. I never thought I was going to come across these two sets today. I was prepared to feel the disappointment that has been more common lately than not. I hope everyone who reads this has a similar experience soon! Happy hunting everyone!
