Saw this MOC somewhere on the web and thought it was great so decided to recreate it...

Silent Mary. Definitely not for everyone. Starts out as a mostly technic build. The hull is nice to build versus just putting together 5 solid pieces with a few technic pins in 30 seconds will have to see if the display of it grows on me. It is not a mirror symmetrical build so there are differences between the two sides. There are also "missing" pieces to give it that ghost ship appearance I think the only one I may have to add is the gold post that is part of the front railing. Not a fan of the breakaway mast and will probably mod that to be a little taller and fixed.

Don't mind me, I'm definitely not the droid you're looking for.

Found this inscription and numerous petroglyphs on a quick hike this morning. It's hard to read due to the bullet holes but I think it says G. F. Jarvis 1870. It's either George Frederick or George Franklin. They were early settlers in Southern Utah (and polygamists).

Little guy wanted some credit

I sold another Joker Steamroller this morning. Price isn't important. What is important is that now I'm down to only 41 left.

This was my thought process as well if I decide to do it. I'd use it as a way to move some slow sellers at a decent price for the buyer, while still making a little profit. I'd probably put a few high dollar items in there as well to attract some of the high end collectors in the area. My sale would be strictly LEGO only, so not really a yard sale per se. I'd advertise it as such as well. Advertising on all of the Craig's boards in the surrounding areas, as well as on local Facebook groups a week or two in advance should get the word out and hopefully generate some traffic. I'd also have it the same weekend that my neighborhood has its annual neighborhood sale as well to take advantage of that foot traffic. I think it would be kind of fun.

Just sold another one for $35. Local Facebook selling group. Down to 40!

Ordered One of my few day or release buys. Used VIP points and gift cards so only paid $35

Ah, gotcha, you're actually going to Ryan Adams

Ugh. Stupid autocorrect. Should be a good time. We've seen him now 5 or 6 times? We won the opportunity to meet him after the last show we were at. It was very cool.

Getting a couple of hours of adult discussion time tonight - talking the wife to another Bryan Adams concert.

My office for the week, stage build, day 1

i see all new sets avail @TRU website http://www.toysrus.com/family/index.jsp?categoryId=35565536 and TRU eBay store...http://www.ebay.com/sch/LEGO/183447/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_ipg=&_from=&_ssn=toysrus&_sop=10 not sure about BM stores

That's crazy to me. I had to quit my Very Competitive Men's Soccer League because I couldn't walk for 2-3 days after a game and that was a year or so ago still in my mid 30's. But same reason I decided to hang it up was due to having to play against college aged men that could run circles around me and I just couldn't fly as fast as them anymore without needed a long breather. Slightly different sports with non-stop vs play by play, but overall still takes agility, stamina, and determination. I miss it, but at the same time, enjoy walking and going up steps without pain and with a straight back vs bent. Hell, just getting out of a chair would sometimes be very painful until I was able to get past a certain point with my back. I literally had to start off crawling to loosen up sometimes. Best of luck coming out of retirement. Jordan did it, I'm sure you can too.

Use more red brick. Share instructions. I have several Nether Fortresses I can part out.

Haven't seen any here, or across the border yet. Will post if spotted

Looks like in store too. I went to one of local targets and 20% off signs were there.

red 5, ewok selling for more than RRP just sayin

Today we had a family day out in London to visit the DC Heroes - Art of the Brick. The models were so impressive, definitely worth a visit for those that are local. Here are a few snaps:

Here it is. Box size about 175% of Snowglobe.

Nuff said

I went on a harry potter buying spree last month or so and finally built them. Yes, I do hoard them so I may buy the same sets over and over again.

Done, what a beast!

TMI

At Yard sales people's mentality is to offer five bucks for a new sealed set. I would never sell Lego at a yard sale. The rule of thumb is to sell things for below 50% of what you paid.

JFYI, [ it is how the system works ] if marked item shipped & uploaded tracking number [ doesn't matter where you purchase the label ] seller is going to get dinged in both a. shipping [ late shipping; etc and item not delivered etc... ] b. cancellation [ also hits on the metrics. even though you mentioned buyer cancelled ] decide based on what you can afford :)...

Brickheadz are now on TRU site.

I use insurepost as well and filed one claim (shipping damage). Easy process. I generally only insure large ($500+) orders. Edit: holy comment resurrection. Sorry, just noticed date.

Because I only have so many days left in the U.S. so I thought auction might be the best bet to really sell it as long as I am here.

Getting hit in the lower leg on a throw to home while paying catcher in a softball game, suffering an injury (hematoma), learning you will be out for at least a month and on crutches for at least two weeks, having your kids play with your crutches and leaving them far away from you and then realizing you are afraid to play the game again that you like so much. Time to build a LEGO set for some needed therapy…

Senior, Junior and Mini-me

This is my solution.

Hit the streets!

Through bag 5 of 12. Little repetitive. Next section looks more of the same. One or two neat build features but overall pretty basic. It'll be a nice display piece when finished.

Love how some on here automatically assume that a lego collector must be a BPER. We are just a very small % in the world of LEGO. Oh and Emazers would never let his storage of sets look like that heap.

I have had a few Big Buck sets bought with stolen and hacked credit and paypal accounts, now I always got my money back, so what I been doing now anything over $400 I will get the buyers contact info and call them and ask if they really did buy it, I sold a SSDS yesterday and called the person to confirm that they did purchase it, since January I called 2 winners on a SSDS and 10212 and both said they didn't purchase it and had there paypal account hacked.
