I'm not sure what you see? Daily LEGO and bubble gum Deals - USA

Found footage of @exciter1 after a corndog/hubba bubba marathon.

Yeah feel free to dump those loser SUPER Star Destroyers 10221. I will take them all at cost.

Built a used 10212 UCS Imperial Shuttle that I picked up for $230 with shipping a couple weeks ago. What an impressive set. I knew it was a large set but it always seems bigger when it sits in the dining room table. Had all minifigs no box no instructions. I can cross this set off my list.

I found a HL Mall for $54 at the WM near the spot I picked up a $30 Ultrasonic Raider MISB. I was feeling so good I paid full price for 4x TLBM figures to appease my children.

New to BP but not Lego. As a kid I grew up with the old school space ships and what not (not like what they have today). I ended up with a decent collection by the time I shipped out to bootcamp but while I was gone my Grandmother passed my collection on to my younger cousins. By the time I found out it was too late, so I moved on. Well fast forward a few decades, I have a son who has taken an affinity for Lego as well . While researching I came across BP and while I don't usually join forums, or communities, I couldn't help but notice how nice everyone is to each-other - you know, compared to the rest of the Internet - so I couldn't help but join and say hello. Looking to do some investing (I don't mind sitting on a set for a year or two and I have an attic ) and obviously collecting. So, were the December Lego sales normal for that time of year? To me it seemed like there were 30% - 40% off deals to be had everywhere, and I got to learn the UPS guy's first name. LOL

Lego reselling is dead!

75101 C2C at SAH, this might be the start of more TFA sets to go...

Forgive me if it has already been posted: LEGO Shop at Home has Disney minifigures reduced to $3.19 (not a huge deal but $0.80 can add up with large quantities) limit 18 per order https://shop.lego.com/en-US/The-Disney-Series-71012 Someone else already pointed out Seasonal Elf and Santa reduced to $5 (they are still available online) https://shop.lego.com/en-US/LEGO-Little-Elf-Helpers-40205 https://shop.lego.com/en-US/LEGO-Santa-40206 And of course the new Batman Movie CMF's are available (regular price) https://shop.lego.com/en-US/THE-LEGO-BATMAN-MOVIE-71017 Batwing poly is available for free with purchases of $35 or more

Definitely not normal but not uncommon. After sending in many shipments we have figured out amazon's fulfillment system and have never lost a single shipment or had a package sitting in receiving for more than a day even in the busy holiday season. Take note of what center you are shipping to, whether or not it is a fulfillment center or a distribution hub, and how you send it there (usps, fedex or ups). The carrier you choose makes a huge difference. At some centers UPS will drop off right at the dock and your items will get checked in and available to sell within hours while for the same location FEDEX will drop off in the yard and your items can sit for a 7-10 days before being checked in (and vice versa at other centers). FEDEX is normally cheaper but if you need that box checked in ASAP and you know the UPS guy is going to land it at the right spot then it is worth the extra few dollars during Q4. Play around with times and numbers to get the shipments you want and lock them in months in advance. As for the ASIN issue I have never had any problems like that but we don't seem to sell alot of the same sets as other folks on this board that have problems. The majority of stuff we do sell are new products, bundles or multipacks that we create and control the listings for. Obviously that strategy won't work for most lego items but my entire point was to diversify as much as possible on the platform (and I don't mean megabloks or SW toys).

Do not buy any sets with the word "Super" in front of it.

And in case anyone doesn't know, Citi credit cards have price protection. You have to initiate price rewinds for each item. But if there's a lower price within 90 days at any retailer, they'll return the difference to you. It's worked with 3rd party seller prices on AMZ as well, not just name brand stores.

Dang someone got jipped! On the other hand someone just scored!!

I'm sure you guys saw a 2nd poly pic was leaked, another Droid? Rumors are these will be part of a series of polys.

Thats all good but can you stick it in the right thread please.

Of course. It's just insane that someone would pay that much for a polybag that will be available shortly.

information for folks out there. target & TRU ban now extends to target-ebay and TRU-ebay as well. [i.e. any order you place at target-ebay and tru-ebay will be cancelled as well ] be careful with what you do but looks like its going to be very very hard to keep the buying privilege alive if one is reselling.

What does all this have to do with Architecture? We have a thread for UK / EURo market discussion and another one about the UK exchange rate. Could a mod please move this discussion there so we can speculate about the Arc de Triomphe and Guggenheim?

I figured that video was gonna go in a different direction. A browner direction.

Yep its one of if not the best.

This.....the OCD in me is screaming about the 16, 18 and 20 fig sets......

I think that's a YMMV question depending on how you make and track your purchases. But here's what's involved. You can go on the price rewind website, search for and add the items you've bought. You add the price, date, and location of purchase. And upload proof of purchase with that credit card which can be a receipt picture or PDF'd email. Or you can manually submit requests by mail or email with the same information plus the lower price you found, the vendor, proof of purchase with card, and dated lower price. Printed webpages work as long as you have the date and link in the header/footer. There are $500/item and $2500/yr caps and some exclusions apply. https://www.citipricerewind.com/guide I'm happy to answer other questions in PM rather than derail the thread more.

I am the great Cornholio! by J.B.F

I have to share this one! Hubba Bubba Bubble Gum Tape, Awesome Original, 6-Foot Tapes (Pack of 24) - Add on - $5.84 Amazon

Saw those in Target the other day. Buying 2 gives you room for 16 figs, but there are 20 unique ones. D'Oh!

Not sure if it has been posted earlier but I came across the last Ideas Maze set in my area today. Marked down to $55.98. Going to go back and price match the ones I got a week ago. Will end up with two for less than the original price of one. Not bad on a retired set.

For personal use, sure why not. For investment I'd wait. It will most likely see deeper discounts in the future, and will be a good candidate to see at least 50% off clearance at Walmart or Target down the road.

Himeji Castle by Ryan

Insanity. $200 for a $5 poly.

You can pick these up for £40 from John Lewis still, I got a couple today.

is grape flavor an option?

Hi, everyone! I'm a new member here and I saw this wonderful raffle! What a great idea and a great way to help a great cause! Those are some super happy looking kids and you can tell that they love their school. I'm all for keeping St. Paul School Strong!

I'd overdose on those so no thx, I'd rather have your $0.50 sonic corn dogs

I guess they can be used for other Lego batman movie minifigs, Lego doesn't want you to stop at 16, or 20...

Had this type of incident twice in December. On one received similar email and told them to notify ebay. Shortly after contact received email from ebay stating fraudulent transaction, do not ship, and fees refunded. Other one, transaction was cancelled out right by ebay stating fraud. Fees refunded. Then had to relist items.

I tried to get a PM for an item that hadn't even shipped yet and they wouldn't do it, if I cancelled the order I likely wouldn't be able to reorder @ the lower price because of quantity limits. (Unless they fixed that) Quite annoying.

My own polybag.. this one has winner all over it.

One of my KMart stores started closing today. I stopped there real quick on a coffee run and it's 25% off across the board for toys. I picked up some retired Elves and Juniors Family Houses. A nice surprise was that I could use the mobile coupons and points. I was able to break up the transactions and use $10 off $50 coupons and get a gas coupon for each transaction. I'll probably stop there a few times this weekend. I can get the Emma's Houses that are left down to $42 each.

Since nobody seems to want to share their EBay coupon deals (are we ashamed or is everybody keeping quiet hoping nobody discovers the hidden gem called White House?), here are my purchases for today: 21033 Chicago Skyline - $0 after EBay Bucks 60134 Fun in the Park - $12.87 after EBay TRU sale price ($30.99), $15 off $75 coupon, and $3 in EBay Bucks (70% off) I tweaked my accounting to charge me full price for the Iconic Easter minifigure I tossed in to get me over $75. Theoretically it should have gotten 8% off as it was $6 out of a $77 total, but since that's around 50 cents I couldn't be bothered. Now let's see what TRU actually delivers. Also today, trying to cash in on SYW Rewards points before the roof caves in at my local Sears: 41311 Heartlake Pizzeria - $17.43 after Sweeps winnings (42% off). Not bad for a set that has been out for 5 days.

Already buying "memorabilia"

I've been expecting this for a while which is why I've held off on bricklinking one for £1000-1500. It's been 10 years since the original so people have had plenty of time to cash in. I hope it's more detailed than 10179 but given the demand for the original I'd be surprised if they spent much money & time on design of they're going to keep this in an acceptable ball park

Yes, i see where your coming from. I've finished building it... It's a very industrial and blocky ship, definitely not sleek! I think the features though are what makes it, I particularly love the hatch which opens when the wheel is turned. I've always loved function in LEGO sets, and this one doesn't disappoint.

Amazon's price match software matched a fraudulent 3rd party seller...many bought but only a lucky few shipped.

This one was 90% me and not the 4 year old. Green NRG Dragon 70593
