OK since you have it all figured out then I suggest you go and start your own lego how to do it website. You have been skating on thin ice here the past few days and we have been pretty lenient with you but it stops now or you will no longer be a member here. If you want to be a part of this community knock off the trolling. If you don't want to be a part of it I can help you leave. The decision is yours.

People need to learn from others' mistakes and only use IPR (Immediate Payment Required) on eBay

I agree -

I just spoke to LEGO CS and they just agreed for me to return mine after 6 months! But, I pay the postage. I no longer have faith in this set and can't stand the Simpsons anyway. I may revisit in a few years when EOL is expected as I bought way too early. For the sake of

I think we need to summarize the last 5 or 6 pages. Fallingwater is a great set. So are most Architecture sets. They have no minifigures. Patience is needed. People are not making money flipping the a $100 set for $130. Real resellers flip Elsa's Shiny Shack or whatever it's called.

Instead of debating and banging it out on the keyboard, cut a promo like this one and post it. It will be far more entertaining.

It's not just Lego I take to the extreme, I am also an avid fan of Christmas lights, and so I thought I'd share my Christmas light display with all of you: Anyone else taking it to the extreme with Christmas decorating? Thanks, Jim

Definitely poofed right now. I'm pretty sure it hasn't been in stock for an hour or so.

*head asplode* I don't even care if it's canon or not, this would be awesome. A power functions train in some sort of a space city setup would be awesome. While we're at it, how about a Star Wars modular. :-)

Now Matthew doesn't exist for a few days. If his attitude continues when he gets back from his vacation, it will become permanent.

..and by fascinating you mean awesome/ridiculous/cha-ching.

Funny, I actually contacted a distant relative who lives in London just to catch up and had mentioned this set. Her husband is from Denmark and so I asked if he was flying through Billund anytime soon. He wasn't, but his dad was coming to visit them the next day and flying through Billund. I will be receiving 3 of these. No word if he actually could have bought more, but I'll take it!

Wow, my mine just went for 130 including shipping - my biggest ever profit!

I think the over saturation theory might be a product of us finally paying attention to the stock levels instead of just walking past them like they were galaxy squad

Please let's move on

Some people make a living selling this "crap" all year long - The world is by no means ending on 12/25.

They actually just did in the US.

I'm so anti pills and doctors and all that crap. I could care less is something is fda approved.... Do people reslly believe what they say is legit? Pills are horrible for u. I'm even weird about taking advil. All these big pharmacy companies do a risk reward estimate on possible risks. If they can make a billion dollars of of a pill regardless if it is safe or it it's coming to market one way or another. So what if they kill a few people.... They will pay out a few million to the families and still be profitable. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Brickpicker mobile app

I got $525 from a collector for mint condition.

Yeah, I've had to do it once or twice in the past, and I believe eBay has always taken action, but by the time they get around to it, the offending auction is already over or the damage was already done.

Many stores have them now, lot of new sets, too - got to admit, I love the friends sets TRU has a ton of '15 sets, but won't put anything out until 1/1. Oh well. Got one Elsa set for my daughter and I'm happy.

LEGO, not a retailer or I would of posted it. Not very happy with the set compared to the first one. Looked over it some more and its really basic.

I honestly have no idea about the whole ebay thing and what will appear more likely than others, and so forth. Really don't put much thought in it, at least yet, as this is a side thing for me...and my wife wants me to clear some room. Just put up another one at $249.95, shocked if it sells, but who knows. Don't have an ebay store, either, just my lone self selling things that collect dust.

I've had good sales (especially Star Wars) except for the pink sets. It looks like Friends and Princesses will be going back into storage until retirement.

It is for me! Lol

Yes, it's a shame that the beginning is not included at the end of the second movie... Bard is great. Overall this movie is ok (let's say it's the best of the three) but some parts are still meh. I'm not sure if I'll see it again in DVD (while I see LOTR movies each time a year). IMO a good way to see immediately the difference between hobbit movies and LOTR movies, is to compare Alfrid with Grima...

The way karma really works is he should contact them and let the know the mistake they made. You are trying to twist the definition to suit you, or maybe you were being sarcastic?

You access a vendor's site through the GCR site, and accumulate a rebate for a % of the amount sold there. Another similar site is ******.ca Both are well established and legit. ****** is offering 4% back on Wallie purchases right now. I use ****** and the every few months I get a check in the mail. The % varies by vendor. Sometimes GCR has better rates, other times it is ******. Kind on nice to get 4% + 2% on the credit card. BUT I missed this ToO deal and am VERY jealous of the box pictures. $#$!)$$($!*

I like to round down... : )

And I don't think that you'll be sorry for that.

If I can turn a millennium falcon into a Tower Bridge, I will consider that a nice little investment upgrade and call it a day!

I think Jonathan Quick needs to retire after tonight. Tarasenko is god

Got my two as well, love them being in a box with zero padding, but no damage. Ordered two more, so see how it makes out.

Pshhhhh. If it's truly gone it's not going down after Christmas. Keep selling at $199 folks.

Lego brand bingo dabbers are a must.

Raise your prices folks!

reading you both go back and forth reminds me of.... SO let's be civil and let it be. better yet "let it go". stay on topic and don't make things personal. this is the public warning.

Shop shopping, shopping at Ross: 5560 Pink Box for my niece $22.99 60054 for my nephew (been seeing a lot of these at different Ross') $6.99 Sent from my XT1028 using Brickpicker mobile app

Jais let me tell you just because I have been buying a lot does not mean I know what I am doing. I sure hope I do. Don't we all.

Instead of debating me why don't you take a drive to St. Louis where just about every B&****** shows stock currently. Then you can flip them for $10 profit.

Just can't help myself. "He tried to make me go to rehab and I was like, 'Pfft, no no no.'"

Big fan of lotr and not raining on any parades but not a fun build. Put this black piece on that black piece 1x 4x 8x 12x rinse and repeat over and over. Looks bad ass in my ikea detolf but lots of the same thing.

It will be when my son graduates college in 18 years.

I see in the simpsons theme the same potential as square sponge bob. While it'll be ok in the US, I would pass the whole theme as an investment in europe. And I also think that this set already is hoarded by tons of people who usually do not invest in legos (and made an exception for this set).

Open a SNAD case - that gets sellers attention faster than anything else, as it causes a defect and you can escalate to get eBay involved. It doesn't even matter if you don't want to send it back - you can ask for anything reasonable (or even not reasonable but I know that's not the case here) -- you can ask for a partial refund in the amount it will cost you to get the missing pieces on BL, for example. Worst case scenario, eBay will tell you you have to return for refund, but you don't have to do that, you can just keep the set. If you don't want to go through the hassle at all, then a negative feedback is warranted, IMO, because of the lack of communication/resolution from the seller. If a seller screws up but fixes it, I either leave positive or no feedback.

Odd thing was that the seller had 600+ perfect feedback. I question if he/she could have had their account hijacked. Recent update...Ebay made me fill out a police report and after I did that a few days later (today) they issued me a full refund for $1601.99. I can say that I'm thoroughly impressed with Ebay. Good news is that the seller never responed to my emails asking what happened so it was very clear it was a scam and Ebay quickly ruled in my favor. Chris.
