Yes, collection is in Albuquerque, NM. I'll drive up to 500 miles on my end for delivery if needed. My treatment has been great so far. Losing much of your tongue totally sucks, but it beats the alternative. Thanks everyone for the good wishes, I'll make it through this.

I've had many inquiries, thanks to everyone! The collection has been sold, and I'm working with the buyer to arrange delivery. Thanks again to everyone, that was really quick. I actually had several offers in excess of my $12,500 asking price. I didn't accept them as 1) I had been working a deal with a buyer prior to this, and 2) I felt $12,500 was the fair price which leaves enough room for the buyer to make some profit on this collection. After all, that's one of the reasons we're all here. Thanks again, now I have to start packing things up.

Once again, thanks to all. I really didn't want my health to be such a big deal; we all deal with stuff like this eventually, at least if you're living right. Here I am. 6" incision on my neck from the radical neck dissection I had 7 weeks ago. All the lymph nodes in the left side of my neck were removed, along with about 35% of my tongue.

So you acted like a gentleman and gave her one of yours?

I sold the beat up box tower bridge I picked up the other day for $200. Not too interesting but I did sell it on a new site (new to me) Nextdoor.com. It's a message board website for neighborhoods. It has a classified section. I don't think I will list any thousand dollar SSDs there but it might be good for small and used stuff. It's also great for getting local recommendations. It's gotten so expensive to sell online, love seeing a new local source beside craigslist. It's much more personalized than CL too so I don't expect the garbage responses I sometimes get on CL.

I am really sorry to read that you are going through this. I hope that your treatments go extremely well and you go into remission sooner than later.

The suspect looked like this

Finally, I found the time to build a little bit today. It's Battle on Takodana with some Jedis visiting Maz while the bad guys are out of town. Thankfully, there were only two stickers in need of application and the banner is made of some kind of fabric. Also, most of the parts and bricks seem to be easily repurposed for MOCs.

I'm down in STL but from Chicago. I wish I could go this weekend. I'll have to plan ahead for next year.

What? There are screens on the gas pumps in your area?? I thought the gas stations there look more like this:

@diablo2112 I'm sorry to hear about your situation. Good luck with your recovery and health. I know it isn't easy but we all wish you the best going forward. Staying positive for your family and self def helps.

I agree .. the set itself is mediocre so the raptors are the only thing carrying it. I agree with newbie and $150 will be it's upper limit... maybe you get the swing of $160 on Amazon, $140 on eBay (or so) but I can't see it hitting $200.

Sorry to hear about your circumstances! Wishing you a speedy recovery. I have done business with the OP and can vouch for him.

Since you asked... listen carefully at 0:53. Yep... can't remember three things from a grocery list, but I can remember hearing about a new lego part in a designer video!

Nothing crazy. I have a 6 foot floating shelf I turned into "battle of Hoth" once I get my new place I'll open AOH and add to it (bigger display) Working with the space I have lol

Two sets recently...Eiffel Tower and the Disney Characters. And yes, the star destroyer is attacking the Disney characters!

I put an old mini fig on the super jumper never again had to use the orange divider tool to get it off. Don't use your mini figs it will break there legs lol

After all the Disney fig buying lately, I think I am ok on the minifig front...thanks for the heads up. I think I will be there early Sunday so hoping parking won't be too bad if I am there around 9:45ish... If anyone wants to meet up Sunday just to say hello, PM me as I will be there when the gates open and thanks again @Lordoflego for the heads up on this...it's only 40 mins from my house, and should be smooth sailing on a Sunday am...I was looking at the current travel times yesterday when we were chatting and they were over an hour....NO TY!!!! Glad to be traveling Sunday am.

I hope so, otherwise he just hopped on over to BP to brag about his prowess about finding wieners in Toys R US.

demand for this set seems inexhaustible. sold 8 in the last 4 days for $99.99 + $4.99 shipping each FBA.. still have 9 left. how high can this go - 150-200? 1 million dollars? infinity + 1? love sets like this that are made of money but sad to see my supply dwindle down. cue newbie77's "final uptick" comment. what will this years Raptor Escape be? it's out there right now sitting on the shelves.

The guy is back at it. After I said the price was $70 for the millionth time, he asked if I would take $60. Then a short time later he followed up with this gem: "I'm in [Town he lives in] By the time I drive to [Town I live in] and back I spent 40 in gas I think 50 is a fair offer Also it's been on there for a month Not many five year olds look on Craig's list for Lego sets ....." I did the math, that means he averages 8 miles per gallon if he is spending $40 on gas round trip. And the $40 is already double the original $20 he said. I told him to try Amazon or Ebay.

Well, that is something to be proud about. Isn't it?

RE was restocked in November/December as promised. They never promise to continue producing RE from that time forward though.

I would post pics but I'd be banned

It's been sitting semi-built for a few weeks. Built one of the expensive $74 WM clearance ones I tossed a couple finished build shots over the one and only astrophotography shot I have. Fun build and looks great on display.

Hot Damn, this looks amazing! A pop-up Japanese castle built entirely from Lego !

I'm calling it now. These will actually perform better than 90% of the other superhero sets out there. If there is a series 2, even better.

I don't trust any Superheroes sets anymore. Of course there will be winners, but with the proliferation of figures being re-used in different sets and the fakes being imported by the billion, I'm steering clear of them. This is probably one of the better ones that has come around lately, though. I still need to see the movie, though, and can't really form a truly informed decision until then.

I built 75112 General Grievous today. It looks so realistically true to the character.The finished model looks amazing. It works really well with the bionicle/technic style pieces versus some of the other Star Wars characters that just look awkward. But it really plays well with his roboticness. And it's so much bigger than I expected. The box really doesn't do it justice IMO. Like, I look at this huge thing on my shelf now, and size-wise, it looks like a $50 or $60 set. And it's flexability/posability is amazing as well.

Twinsies! (Finished mine last weekend after it sitting in its box for half a year):

Love the rocket

Cant remember if I've already posted this. Anyways its going in, can never have too much star wars.

True... let the price go down to 200 euro and I might buy a few.

I was hoping to get one of each of these, but they are too cool. I'll be stocking multiples.

Just driving on a freeway with wife checking craigslist. 10 minute detour and $50 later, complete used Pet Shop with box was added to our trunk.
