Hi everyone, 1st time poster. Great fan of everyone's work here. Anyway, I just noticed that Amazon also has the BOGO 40% for Lego Batman & Lego City sets. The discount only shows before you complete your order, though. Has this been reported by anyone else? I apologize if this has been posted already.

Every time I see that link, I think of

Its all back to the way it was. No more discussion needed on the like (or dislike) button

These Classic Space sets arrived today. The boxes are in great condition like the instructions. No discoloration of the bricks. Not quite a bargain but I am very happy with these classic sets. Awesome theme, timeless.

Needed Baby Groot and Yondu

I added some more sets to the BOGO list.

I like to think it looks like this.

Sorry to be a dissonant but not liking the new like/dislike functionality. Likes have suddenly become anonymous. I liked it that you could see who liked what post - sort of trolling-protection (especially now that you can give dislikes). It made the site feel much more like a close-knit community versus a run-of-the-mill anonymous internet board. Unless I'm missing something and this info is still out there.

sold 2x LEGO City 60011 Surfer Rescue Toy Building Set to the same buyer, amazon FBM for $29.68 for both after shipping. paid $2.50 each on clearance. i've almost sold through the 2 dozen i snagged. it was especially sweet selling 2 to one buyer. anytime i make money on the shipping, i just can't help but smile. little sets that fit in a 6x6x6 box win again.

Which brings up an interesting point , how long is too long to hold on on a set .. anyone getting peeved over this is boarderline hoarding

If you compare the box-image with this 3D render based on accurate movie images, then it's quite obvious that the new 75144 looks significantly better than the old version!

While I am still waiting for the Deathstar to arrive, I thought that I'd post the bonus set. Thanks again, Ed.

Hmm...some reading comprehension might be in order.

I think in the long run Gimli and the LOTR packs will do better than Chima packs. Speaking of Chima, I was at a 99 a couple days ago and there were only 4 Chima Cragger packs left on the shelf. I put them in my basket and then 30 seconds later a little girl shows up and I hear her say "hey wait a minute.....no more Chima??" She obviously saw them earlier and was confused on where they went. I slowly turned and walked toward the checkout lane. I felt bad but quickly got over it. ?

Going old school... 8778 Border Ambush. NIB. Purchased years ago for $16. after postage and ebay fees my total profit was 21 cents. woo-hoo,

My son and I used Google's Random Number Generator, along with an Excel spreadsheet to come up with the winner of the LEGO Secondary raffle. Over two hundred tickets were in this raffle, from well over a hundred very generous people! The winner is Waddamon! Please contact me for your choice of prizes and shipping address. I would like to thank everyone once again for their generosity. BrickPicker members have come through once again in support of a wonderful school and the kids and faculty are very grateful. All the main prizes have been shipped. Please post any pictures you have of the prizes or built sets. Thanks again! Ed

Fixed that for you

Deep enough

Saw Angry Cop holding radar gun in golf cart polybag at Target today. I think it's a new one.

Where does it end? FBA 70818 - TLM: Double-Decker Couch - $55

I am creating this thread to start posting some updates or sometimes may solicit some feedback for the upcoming Brickpicker v4.0 update. Progress as been somewhat slow, but continuous for a while. It's funny that I just read the the post by Nathan over @ Rebrickable who just launched his 3rd update of the site. Kudos to him. I feel the exact same way. Actually, I think all developers are just a little bit nuts when it comes to expectations and timelines. This is not going to be an in-depth post, just a kickstarter post to give me a place to where I can go to to share my thoughts and ideas as well as to gather some from all of you. You may have noticed my new graphic on the forum index that will allow you to post ideas, members can vote on them and feedback can be given. Its a cool service that allow you to build a roadmap and integrate it with project management software. The past two years I have learned to use lots of fun tool at my 9-5 job (like Jira), and I have learned to become a less chaotic engineer. Anyhow, here is a small bullet list of things to expect with v4.0: Site redesign. Everything will finally all look like its part of the same site. Price guide and Brickfolio overall Yes, sold sets will finally be there Multiple brickfolios for those that have personal and business Lots more data to do your own analysis on your collection Full syncing with Brickset/Rebrickable (instead of just the import only feature that is currently there) Brick Classifieds will be brought into Brickpicker. (probably my most hated thing I did was create a separate site) There will be a premium offering (more info will be released at a later time). There is much more to announce, but I am not ready to go into details until I actually can show a few things. There is no ETA announcement just yet. I will say it will be sooner rather than later, but not ready to commit to date. I want to make sure I will be able to hit and there is still work and QA to do. Anyhow, thats what I have for now. Again, feel free to leave some ideas for other members to read, vote on and see if it can be added into the initial release or we can add it to the roadmap for future release. More to come....

Ruthless

These early access VIP releases were created solely for the purpose of getting people to sign up. They don't care about making us feel special for 2 weeks.

That profile says it's a fan account, plus there's no check mark symbol next to the name to indicate that it's a verified account. Probably not even her and just some fan group trying to capitalize. I think she actually left social media some time ago.

Lego cant seem to ever get a chess set done with no mistakes doubt they will put the set on hold and do an instructions reprint and reseal the sets like last time. The set is deceiving it definitely doesn't look like 1,450 pieces (that's more then an ISD) when you open it and there are only a few small bags. Build is straight forward, fast and simple. Finished product looks great and pieces fit inside. Will test functionality this weekend when I play a Match with my dad.

City Party People in the Park are $22.80 each when you buy 2.

Waiting for $150 before trickling them out. Stay on target.

Spoiled by $1-3 dimensions forever lol

Some people get to 3rd base, but most strike out.

only buying at 40% or better - that seems to be the new norm now.

AA is a TRU exclusive so is not sold by Amazon directly

WHY ARE THEY TRYING TO BRING THE MULLET BACK?!?!? Rey does not need one to add dramatic effect.

Try batcave movie or city park

Running it now, lets see what it says.

Batman and the phantom zone is half price at Target and the Easter polybags that I saw were a police car and a friends set with a boom box and someone doing parkour.

Wall-E broke the $100 barrier FBA - $106 Buy Box

EBay: 2x41178 Elves The Dragon Sanctuary - $75 and $80. Buy-in was $22 after tax. First Facebook sale: 41053 Disney Princess Cinderella's Dream Carriage - $25. Buy-in was $15 after tax. This was one of those regretted purchases, glad to have been able to sell for a few bucks profit before the new Carriage comes out. Buyer has her eyes on a few other sets I have, so there might be more sales coming.

No comment

I recommend that you contact USPS Consumer Affairs. Here is link to get you started to locate the nearest office. Be polite and explain your situation. Their job and duty is to ensure that your needs are met and satisfied. Furthermore, they are able to determine who to contact and what to get through in a chain of command. Personal story, I was checking an eBay sale one day and I noticed that the package had yet to be delivered. After talking with my local post office manager and calling the potential USPS office at the destination went nowhere, I got in contact with a Consumer Affairs office. Now the number I found was in Virginia but the Virginia people were kind enough to direct me to the right people in Florida and also give me names to contact. Within the same day, they managed to determine when my package was delivered, where it was delivered, and to whom it was given to. So they were able to verify that the package was delivered to an agent and formally out of both our hands. We were not liable for any of it. As an aside, the buyer claimed that he had no idea who the person it was delivered to was and no one at the address knew said person, despite a paper trail showing it was delivered to someone. But that's another story. Give it a shot.

Just to nitpick Ed, I don't think that UCS sets were ever great sellers, maybe with a very exceptions like Slave I. But I am not sure even in that. They cater to a niche market, and have seen a lot of discounts before the short spell of discount bans in the early 2010's. However, EOL performance probably is not indicative of retail sales of the remakes. People who pay four digits for any of these are so die hard that it is very likely that they already have the original. However, most copies are likely going to retail buyers, who might not even have heard that there was a previous one and are not hunting for LEGO on ebay. Therefore, this tendency mostly affects the investors here, not LEGO. For them, I think it is business as usual.
