70173 Ultra Agents Ocean HQ $183 USD Shipped to Australia

I want to make a blog post that summarizes the Black Friday deals. A lot of the talk is going on in the Daily Deals thread, and we will try to bring deals over into the content here so that it is easy to see what might be out there. The reason I turned the summary into a blog is because for any comments, the deals are on each page and there will not need to be searching back 10 pages to see what was missed. This list will be available all the time. I am hunting through the Daily Deal thread to find the deals, so you will continue to see this update.

Or in a day.

Sold a Marina Bay Sands 21021 for 700Euro.

Maybe they just want to insure that they have product for the holidays...

Has this one been posted yet? Came on my BabiesRUs catalog...

Free advice (worth what you paid for it): Most sets at the Lego store can be found cheaper at other retailers and the real reasons for shopping at a physical store are exclusives, advance sales, and promotions such as: buy a keychain, get a free polybag!. The Lego Store does not offer regular 20% off deals (or better) and almost every regularly available set will see at least a 20% discount during its shelf life. Amazon, Target, Walmart, and TRU (if you live near one) and great options and then there are regional chains as well such as Meijer's. Some exceptions to this idea include hard to find sets (Jurassic World) and store exclusives (eg. Target exclusives) From a resale standpoint - one set from Amazon means 1 pre-packaged set ready for sale, just take pictures of it and tape it back up. One set from Target means 1LB of air bubbles for future use, etc. etc.

For those of you that use the Stock Tracker Alerts system, I would like to ask if you can try out a feature I am working on for doing Browser Notifications. Right now this is for Chrome and Safari Browsers. Firefox is in beta and will be available in a few weeks. IE or whatever it is called will be after that. The alerts will show up even if you are not on the Brickpicker site. Please visit this link: https://www.brickpicker.com/brickwatcher/lego-stock-checker-roost-push-notifications.cfm If you are logged in you will be prompted to allow notifications, please make sure you hit the 'Allow' button. Please then go through all of your alerts again and set each one. This will reset everything so that browser alerts may start to come. Please let me know how it works for you. If you need to make change please refer to the link above. The regular stock tracker page will not set everything like this one. It is important to make sure that the Browser Notification Checkbox is checked as well. You get there by clicking the RED Setup Button

5€ on Brick Bounty?! Is this April 1st??

So, it´s gonna be the same as last week. Bedtime!

70750 is retired in germany LEGO Shop at Home

This sounds like too many different sets being sold at one time by Lego. This might be the time to switch your focus from overhoarded, overproduced, not-so-exclusive exclusives to regular sets. The lifespans on regular sets are shrinking while exclusives are lengthening.

What strikes me is the accurate representation. With all due respect to the 2011 MOC, this one is much more accurate. Great display set. Review in Dutch

Good grief! So, now I've been wrong twice...? LOL! You're right. I'm not wrong.

I actually saw 4 Raptor Escapes at the LEGO Store the other day. I left them alone, since the day before I picked up 10 more RE at Wal-Marts on my way to Columbus. I did see a couple little Jimmy's checking out with their RE's in tow while I was there, so it felt like I was releasing a couple more into the wild.

You know BF sucks when the old Ecto will do as well as Delorean debate derails the thread! I wonder which on sale set will sell out first - tempted to go for the Mini.

Walgreens has 12 roll cottenelle TP for $3.99 (usually run $7-$. We have a lot of bathrooms at my house and decent storage, usually price match at WM and get around 20+ cases

Also, selling prices are sometimes hard to compare. Whilst Ebay and Amazon do get higher selling prices than smaller expert trading sites, there's the aspect of including/exclusing shipping too. This isn't the year to sell the Christmas HTrain btw. There's a limited supply, so every box opened in 2015 will help move op the price point end of 2016/17 when they have become scarce. Selling stuff at a time that everybody else is doing the same isn't a smart strategy.

The only thing I got from Walmart was the creative towers... I remember being very underwhelmed about TRU and Walmart.

Just made my first ever Brick Classifieds sale!

You meant starting 5pm this afternoon, right? HAPPY THANKSGIVING ALL!!!

I just wanted to throw a shout out to all of you crazy dedicated Soldiers of LEGO for all of your hard work! Thanks to everyone who help us all get those great deals! I know my personal finances struggle because of you.....and for this I say THANK YOU! HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE!!

Are we picking on the Dutch again

Wie schon im anderen Thread beschrieben, gibts derzeit im ToysRUs Ebay shop die Sets mit 20%. Zusätzlich geht der Ebay GS: CSPIELZEUG15 bei Bezahlung mit PayPal und bringt noch 10%. 15fach Payback Coupon kann auch noch eingelöst werden. Sets derzeit meist vergriffen, werden aber immer wieder mal nachgeladen http://www.ebay.de/sch/m.html?_ssn=toysrusde&_armrs=1&_from=R40&_sacat=0&_nkw=lego&_sop=16 Ps.: Lasst mir was übrig

In the last, the vast majority of sets retired on a fairly predictable schedule. Now Lego is unpredictable. Most think the driving force is global sales (and contract terms for licensed stuff) . Main problem is that folks starting buying up huge amount of slowing sets that prob gives Lego a false indicator that some sets are good sellers with consumers. Town Hall retired after only 2 years because it was a slow seller and the hoard didn't have time to stock up on it (thinking they could do it in another year).

I just checked the LEGO Shop at Home site too. No Series 2! Wow that would be nice for me, 2 weeks ago Toys r us had the deal buy 6 for 10 Euros. I bought 2 sealed boxes, each box for 100 Euro. (retail price: 180)

More Creative Towers on eBay! Hotcakes, I tell ya, hotcakes...

I found 20 of the trees in a target yesterday. I bought three (Actually the cashier gave me one for free because she thought any Lego purchase qualified so she wrung up a discount) . I bought only three and thought of this thread when I bought them. I gave one to my daughter to put together and the other two are being stuck away. I understand the QFLLs on this set but I just didn't see any reason to buy more than a couple for personal use and long term holds. At $3.49 I am not expecting a huge gain as there is nothing special in the set except my daughters smile when we set it next to the turkey I have on the mantle. Yes it is the Lego turkey we put up for Thanksgiving. These are still to be had in the wild and I don't think the QFLL's are making a fortune QFing these.

I'll pay to see that video! On topic of the video...If Clutch would have explained to people that the part out value for a few of the Speed Champions is double the MSRP, maybe people (including myself) would have understood why he was "swooping" up the sets. To be fair to him, the video was kind of taken out of context and people who usually view his videos probably expect this sort of behaviour. Like him or not, he does offer some useful tips to people who part out sets and even to those who resell.

I just think it's ridiculous to bang up Lego. I wouldn't want to get them after that. Nor would I want to offer something like that to people. Maybe I'm just too old to understand those kinds of antics... Respect the Lego...

No, they just laugh.

Arrived today; 3 more Santa's Visit, 1 SW, and 1 Gingerbread House, and 3 FREE Winter Fun boxes, thanks LEGO!

KMart

But millions on molds & research & blah, blah, blah...

I can't believe you actually needed more than one video to come to this conclusion

Yup, proof that having money and spending it doesn´t buy class.

While I agree with most of what you stated, when a person posts a video of themselves, they are open season to all sorts of comments, both good and bad, personal and non-personal. This video in particular was one of his weaker productions and really showed nothing of value in my opinion, other than some person clearing the shelves of two TRUs. I guess we are the fools, discussing this subpar video for the past 3 pages, so good for him. Any publicity is good publicity.

this is deja vu 2012 star war advent calendar. yes 2013 and 2014 may have higher prices why because lot of people got burned in 2012 and they stayed away for 2 years. 2015 lets see how it unfolds. with this much inventory in the wild; it won't be a surprise to see few on 50% clearance sometime in january or who knows even december...

FYI got my Sea Cow from Target in perfect condition even though the box had enough empty space for another SC, lucky....

A couple of people have asked about shipping and I am located in BC. So roughly to eastern Canada it will be around $200 with insurance. I thought it would be less. Even with that in mind, I am willing to work out a price that includes shipping. The hard part with the shipping is there are a bunch of large contoured base plates (4 or 5 can't remember) that eat up a lot of space. Weight is an issue because I would have to separate it into multiple boxes as well. $10 wasn't a low ball offer, it was an offer. It's a little low for me but still a good offer. 115 sets is a lot of sets. Literally my kids and I have been working on this stuff almost nightly for 3 months lol. We built every single set and then took each one apart to verify piece counts. It's been a ton of fun but a lot hours.

Got one with the recent deal with that free Serpent thingie set. This set is blimmin' GORGEOUS. The details, the building techniques... this deserves to be more popular than the modular buildings, all other things equal.

10241 Maersk Triple E for 250 euro cash.

That's great news. Times two! The later than expected dolphin retirement was a pain. Metalbeard will be interesting to see his price action. First exclusive where the opinions were very varied.

Two more confirmed (LEGO Shop at Home EU):

Why didn't you buy it when you saw them in the store?

When your police force is on horseback, news travels slow.

Avg build but some good parts for MOCing and the PF´s come in handy too. Really the crane is the one that will disappear first so for the others there is time. Another tip for investing is avoid the sets that are stocked in large supermarkets and non specialist toy shops as these always stay on the shelves for ages - e.g. 42000, 42029.

You could probably double your money invested/lost if you could find enough people to bet against this being a scam.

True, but many retail stores have stocked the Hobbit sets sparingly and with the movies behind us I can see even more clearing out their inventory or reducing shelf space by summer. I can see LEGO selling through this theme before the end of 2015 with limited opportunities to get this last wave at a discount unless you catch them on clearance or LEGO puts them on sale at the end. All of this is speculation of course but I do not see a lot of retailer interest in holding a spot for this theme that is moving into the rear view mirror in regards to it's media presence, other than the brief Blu-ray/DVD release in the Spring.
