  1. I love this set. By far the most unorthodox building techniques of any set I have built to date. Kudos to TLG for Making it very sturdy. I am not sure yet how I am going to rearrange and fit this in yet though. I was hoping to display vertically.

  9. I appreciate the mention. Everyone has a different business model. I was buying R2D2's at $125 and flipping them for $350 and I wasn't waiting 3 years either. While everybody was cashing out their 401k's to buy up Tumblers at MSRP, because that's what "the hoard" does, I stood on the sideline and bought up all the Imperial Hotels at $86 and have zero regrets.

  10. I'd be wary of sending in 500 lego sets at once. These days it is very easy to get an inauthentic complaint from your "friendly" competition. A few weeks after that the bots come knocking and if you can't come up with the correct documentation Amazon can "destroy" all of your "inauthentic" FBA inventory (i.e. they will take it and sell it themselves). If you can't take that financial hit on then I wouldn't take that risk Also this year the sky high storage fees start an entire month earlier than last year. Personally I would send it small parcel delivery as it sells. Start selling now and ramp up as sales increase closer to the end of the year. This way you are not stuck with big storage fees and if something goes wrong Amazon won't have its paws on alot of your inventory and you can go merrily on your way to another platform if need be. If you must send alot of it in all at once then LTL is the cheapest by far. If you are sending it by the pallet to a local warehouse for Lego that is not very dense you are looking at around 15 cents a pound. Pallets take on average an extra week at the best of times to get unloaded and checked in so I would not mess around with them super close to the holidays but starting now it will be fine. If you use small parcel to a local warehouse you are looking at 25 cents a lb by comparison. I don't know if you are sending in big sets or just smalls but if it is alot of bigs then I would drip it in. If you load up FBA on a big set and undercut to sell thru then your competition will be more than happy to end your Amazon selling career.

  14. That original message has "scam incoming / fruitcake" written all over it. I´d be tempted to cancel the order based on incorrect shipping address and block the buyer. If you don´t get dinged on the address, it will be a SNAD because the item is not received beautiful or because the item is hurt. How can you ensure that, as it is entirely subjective?

  17. obvious comparison is 21104 nasa mars rover cuusoo which was went OOS immediately and was chronically hard to come by in lego stores and spent most of its life OOS for ordering online . yes there will be a second run but that's already part of someone's botz rinse and repeat plan. scarfed up. same with a 3rd run. the question is will they mass produce this set for years on end like ecto1 where you can buy them in store in 2019? seems unlikely.

  21. If The LEGO Group starts to remake every major set, they not only destroy the secondary markets, but themselves in the process. There is nothing worse in the business world than a stagnant company that offers little in the way of new content, designs and ideas.

  25. Keep them as far from exchange as possible. I'm a living example of person who lost 100% of his assets because of the hack on exchange with loosing more than 100 bitcoins at once incl fiat currency. Google what is cold wallet and how to create it and you will be good to go. Stay only with the best and most reliable exchange cantors, like Bitstamp in first place, Kraken, Coinbase, Bitfinex is tad crooked to me they were hacked in the past with hundreds of bitcoin dissipated. Bitcoin is a currency of hackers, human traffickers, drug and weapon dealers etc. For the rest Bitcoin is a speculation tool, because of above Warren Buffet declared he will never invest in the Bitcoins.

  27. An expert? No comment Nice on Iconomi I think bitcoin, Ethereum and Ripple are pretty good long term bets. Litecoin is more a speculative coin, so could go up, but then again, also far down. My current coins of interest are (speculation-wise): VIACOIN, Librarycoin, Transfercoin, Mobilego and HumanIQ. ICO's in general are usually better bought in the week after being released on an exchange as people likely dump under the price of the ICO to get their money back. There are a lot of ICOs though. so I usually avoid them (except Mobilego and HumanIQ)

  29. I have two of these and am hoping when both versions finally die, and stay sold out that I will be able to sell. I may need to bring mine to the nursing home in anticipation, but am hoping it will eventually happen. Still don't think it was a bad investment- if not for lego's laziness and greed, it would have been a winner.

  30. You will want to cover up any existing labels or barcodes every time. The warehouse workers process hundreds of thousands of units every day and have a few seconds to to process your items. Make it fool proof for them and you won't have any issues (we also like to make sure the FNSKU labels or UPC codes are all facing the same way to make it super easy for the processors to spot and scan). We order the 6x4 blank thermal shipping labels from UPS (free) and they ship out huge rolls giving you thousands of blank labels. We use those to stick over any existing shipping labels, barcodes etc. Very easy, quick and free.

  33. Give BrickOwl.com a try. Their shopping cart algorithm is pretty cool. Plus, they will include shipping costs in the calculation (as long as the seller has set up shipping rates, but every serious seller does). And as you add vendors to the list, it will re-optimize your purchases across all selected vendors, giving you the best deal. Most BL sellers are also on BO, and with the same prices, so you're not missing out there.
