Hello there, I would like to present my latest scenery - reconstruction of the racetrack from 1989 poster/catalog. It is not 100% the same, but most of it is. I would have to cut some street plates to have the same effect as in the posters

How about some real deals for once Staples: $15 off $50 packing & shipping supplies Code: 25163

Not the tumbler but close

$25 off $125 purchase on eBay: CSPRING25OFF125 One time use.

Even that is frowned upon around here . Welcome to the forums .

If you simply finish your comment with "just sayin'" there is no reason to delete any post.

Which means that next weeks delivery will have Ewok Villages and no Sandcrawlers

....or 60

Between a birthday this week and Easter we had a few things to build today. 41089 Little Foal 10665 Spider-Man: Spider-Car Pursuit 70736 Attack of the Morro Dragon Morro Dragon looks and builds so much better than I expected. I really liked it.

SSD available Aug 27 2011 thru Jun 3rd 2014 per brickset I think this will go out around the same time.

This years May 4th polybag.

I thought A deal started at 20%, unless u are making exceptions for first time discount or are we counting 5% back no tax ect, cause I can light it up

Like a boss!

Umm...to build a life size tumbler obviously. Or to sell in 4 years for 3-5x retail.

Let's try this again...I know that that adds are based on our own browsing history, but c'mon, the least they can do is filter out the counterfeit sets.

Please read previous 100 pages of thread. Thanks

Scored a sealed EV for 205 shipped Thanks!

It takes some magic but I just used it on: $100 TRU GC for $85 20301 Birds $42.95 Order total: $127.95 Promo code: -$25.00 Total: $102.95 Edit: I messed up. I should have got a $100 ebay gift card and the birds set. I could have used the gift card to buy the discounted TRU card. I would have wound up spending the same amount but had an extra $15 ebay gift card left. FML.

Well a 10179 rehash would be $699+. With europe and asia very weak one would assume sales of the new Death Star would be monitored prior to mass production of a $699 set.

Police station. 60047 $39.99 shopko. Took 2, left 6 more...the struggle is real

Meijer easter clearance was half off this morning. Olaf is long gone. I picked up a few Poe's X-wing polybags. I left a bajillion city cars (same as the Target valentine's day polybag).

I'm just joining in. If 16% off a UCS Tie qualifies, WTH.

I think the Daily Deals is the only thread that doesn't lead to the bubble thread, it always leads to the ethics thread.

Unfortunately I don't think USPS will do anything about Priority Mail since the delivery dates are not guaranteed. If you had paid for Priority Mail Express then you would be eligible for a refund. I can understand the frustration though because I've had many Priority Mail packages take a week for delivery when they said 2-day on the label. Customers are not happy about that if they paid extra for that shipping option.

The data from that source is already acknowledged as innacurate - 249 USD is the 42055 BWE price. The Porsche will have upwards of 2k parts - you can tell by looking at it and the only small doubt is if it will carry any PF or other goodies. My guess is that it won´t and we are looking at a premium AFOL targetted licensed set with limited release that will include some special type of manual à la Architecture series.

The original UCS MF came out in 2007, to celebrate the 30th Star Wars Anniversary (Star Wars, later renamed to Star Wars: Episode IV, 1977). Next year it's 2017, which means there's reason to celebrate the 40th Anniversary of Star Wars. A renewed UCS MF might be as good a way to do that as anything...

Feeling stupid? I know I am. (One of my favorite Simpsons quotes.)

Baked traditional polish food for easter this morning, then played the Easter bunny for the kids, had brunch with the fam with way too much food and sweets - then watched my kids build their poly's they found when doing the egg hunt, played basketball and baseball with the kids for a few hours outside, grilled lamb and duck for dinner, and overall had a nice and relaxing Easter Sunday. Life's good when you can spend time like this with the ones you love. (And it didn't hurt that I sold some LEGO while doing all this )

Not sure if trolling or seriously this mis-informed.

Next, on "Shark Tank"!

@Phil B is right. As long as the "Edit" button still exists, you can delete the text and just type in "Delete" Otherwise, it's staying. If you're that desperate to get it removed, you can ask a mod, but if you abuse that power, we will abuse you.

It's my understanding Brickset is tied to LEGO's database for the set numbers and descriptions. I believe Jeff and Ed get their data from Brickset. I did a quick search and found the following information: Where does Brickset's data come from? It includes a nice PDF graphic that shows all the different places that data comes into Brickset. The answer to your question seems to again be a tie directly to LEGO Shop at Home's database.

I'd also suggest telling the buyer to contact GSP customer support and directing the question/requirement to them. Your only responsibility is to get the package to GSP. Everything from cost to how it's shipped to the address it goes to after it leaves GSP is between the buyer and GSP.

Not if you're comfortable with selling 20% below everyone else.

The "deal" talk on the main thread got me curious about this, most of these sets have 200-300 resellers on Amazon NOW. Even the big ones are 150+. Isn't this concerning/slowing you guys at all on this theme?

Feel the Bern.......

Something tells me that this guy's tenure on Amazon is going to be very short.

100% scam, I've been watching a few of these sale on the eBay UK recently at £100 or so under market value, some users have 20+ 100% feedback but when reading the feedback is completed fabricated and the user has only been in existence a few months. Obviously a big set that scammers have realised people want and will pay big money for. Regards selling on eBay, I have modified my profile settings to only allow users to bid with 5+ feedback, a credit card on file, etc. Etc. There are lots of options and well worth looking into so you don't get scammed.

The previous 237 pages are probably worth a read and after that you still won't have a definitive answer to your question but you'll gather some sound advice if nothing else! [emoji6]

I hope they're saving up for a new camera...[emoji4]

Mmmmmm pancakes...............

I went to the Science and Industry in Chicago last weekend with my family and we went through the Lego Exhibit there. They had an area in the back where people could create their own buildings with tons of open Architecture Studio sets as the building material. Overall it was quite incredible to see some of these sculptures.

Thanks Jeff, appreciate the Canadian BP style hospitality!

Maybe not as much of a problem as a disappointment. I'm a collector first, and not ashamed to admit that. As a collector, I'd like to hope that my portfolio of personal sets continues to consistently grow in value. Honestly, I probably won't sell even half of what I've purchased because I value those sets like I do my art, sports Memorabilia and historical treasures. It is nice to know that I could sell them at some point if I wanted or needed to and come out ahead. If over hoarding / market saturation lead to a situation where exclusive sets don't appreciate strongly anymore, I'd probably have to reevaluate the sizeable chunk of change I throw down each month on my personal collection. As a reseller, I can probably adapt and overcome and continue to make a profit. My best gains so far haven't been from large or exclusive sets. I'm just not sure that I have the extra time to devote to doing it well, and doing it half-a** is a recipe for disaster.

If I wasn't shopping for LEGO, I would be doing it to collect something else. Saving a few bucks at a time has always been standard for me.

This guy has done a pretty nice job at putting a larger carbon freezing chamber together. http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=121860
