  6. It's funny to think about though.. Target bigwig: "Johnson! What's the status on our inflated GEs?! We need the profits from those sales to keep our produce and bedsheets alive! Smith! You better be refreshing that Shop at Home page if you wanna keep feeding your family! We're not getting caught with our price at $249 when that product status hits Available Now!"

  7. Finally!!! That Batman is sweet too. They should put Batman in a Friends set, casual weekend shopping Batman at the Heartlake Mall.

  8. Yes, I do sell in sets. If I have multiples of a set, why not combine them with another set to create another listing. (...one listing for each item plus a combined set listing.) I do not mark then down one cent b/c I am selling them as a set. Those who buy sets are typically people buying gift sets. (What are the chances you have the exact two sets a collector needs?) It also helps to sell in sets when you have cheap sets but dont want to sell them one at a time to make a few bucks at a time. Combine sets to make a listing worth your time. This approach also helps to make the shipping costs more affordable...who wants to pay 5 bucks for shipping on a 20 dollar item....7 bucks on 50 is more palpable to me as a consumer. Admins can lock this thread...my answer is correct and there really is no need for anymore discussion...Pickleboy has spoken.

  14. I thought it might be fun to have a place to share pictures of the terrible ways we receive our sets (sarcastic thread title), whether it's pancaked sets, oversized boxes, etc. I'll start with my SSDs that arrived a couple days ago: Enormous box: Three sets inside, with no packaging material. Third set is underneath the top two, and was crushed with all 4 seals popped: This box came to me today. What could be inside? A couple Death Stars? 60 Minecraft sets? Nope, just one HH and about a kilometer of air pouches: At least they actually padded this one, and I'll have enough pouches to last a while lol. But of course the set just had to have a hole on the back side...more returning to do. Curious to see others' photos

  16. Excellent! Except for Batman, he looks horrible, and I mean that, this version is horrible. Oddly enough, Green Lantern looks very good though.

  17. This is the best advice. The weight tolerance between boxes is usually very little. You will know if something is missing.

  20. I'd weigh it. If the weight comes relatively close or within reasonable error, then I see no reason to return it.

  22. I love this thread. I have a couple of these but haven't built one, this thread is not helping me keep this NISB. :-) Really surprised at the variety of colored pieces, looks weird during the build but I can see why they do it.

  27. Not too shabby. Someone here on my local area has been trying to sell a sealed set on Craigslist for $230 for some time now. I just picked up Lord Business Evil Lair and Super Cycle Chase via a trade for two Umbaran MHC's (which I got 50% off at Target) plus a couple of CMF's. They're going into my collection.

  29. Apologies for the "threadsurrection", but here's one I thought deserved attention: A fully functional Lego microscope, made completely out of Lego bricks! https://ideas.lego.com/projects/44370 CNET also did an article on it: http://www.cnet.com/news/microscope-built-entirely-out-of-lego-actually-works/

  30. I check every 37 seconds on the off chance that someone lists a Rover at msrp. Unfortunately it hasn't worked out yet. Glad to hear you have another for yourself, having that is pretty special and definitely something to keep

  31. Yes I was fortunate enough to get Stephen's autograph! This really is one of my all time favorite Lego sets. I also have one that I am keeping to display in my personal collection. I have absolutely no idea what it will sell for but I thought I would throw it out there and see what happens. If it doesn't sell through now, it might at Christmas time. I am not in any rush and prepared to bring my expectations down on sell through. But you can always try. Wow you are amazing fast at finding new postings on ebay.

  34. The catalog doesn't help when you are trying to determine the EOL date of a set. Some sets can be out of a catalog for a while, and then show up again. But I do agree that this set should be done anytime soon. The theme that the set is associated with is long gone. It should go any day soon. Most likely at the end of this year, when many sets go EOL.

  37. Big box retailers make their money by moving large amounts of merchandise. It makes little sense for Target to price gauge a handful of GE's. An extra $1200 on those items sold with the $100 markup is nothing to them in the grand scheme of things. Normally they would just sell these at msrp and then move on to the next thing. It's probably either a pricing error (we've seen it go the other way with the MHC), or they're testing the waters with TRU pricing.

  45. I posted this elsewhere, but it's relevant to this thread to. I ordered a handful of baseplates from yoyo, they came in a gigantic box. It was full of those air packs, but they were still sliding around a lot on the bottom fo the box. Luckily none were broken.
