My Lego Room: I come here after I fight with my wife to relax/recover. Still working on arranging sets due to spacing issues.

TMI

The undercutting on this is insane. I just matched the low price and dropped to seventh on the list in 5 minutes. Think I'll hang back for now.

Just an FYI for future orders from BN if you check "Make this a gift" then no stickers.

I bought them after Christmas for $30-40 and sold them on Amazon for $120-130 in less than a year. Seems like a winner to me

Grand Emporium for £127.50. Stage 1 is of unknown completeness, and missing its instruction booklet, but stages 2 and 3 are still fully in sealed bags. I've checked and they are all there (and the instructions, but they're out of shot). I'll go through stage 1, find out what pieces are missing, bricklink them, then build the whole thing for myself.

Push them down then raise your price back up.

Where did you find 3oz boxes?

We're going away for Xmas so my parents gave the kids some money for presents ... we went to the LEGO store today to get the train station for our xmas village and we of course walked out with a bunch of stuff. Receipt 1 - Train Station - Ninjago Movie display case - A couple new keychains - Road plate pack with the curve.. was short one! - Free Advent Calendar Receipt 2 - Minecraft Ice Spikes & Ocean Monument - Speed Champs Bugatti, Mclaren, Camaro Drag Race and 2016 Ford GT & 1966 Ford GT40. - Free Store VIP Polybag ^ Would have probably got the Corvette and Audi but weren't on the shelves. When I asked the cashier for 2 receipts so we could separate what the kids owed us from their money, my partner glares at me and says "what's the point, just put it all on one we can figure it out." Knowing how stingy our store can be with promo sets, I knew making two separate purchases this large would be good enough.... but wasn't going to say that at the register. She eventually did figure it out and apologized outside after. Rookie! (Edit - if anyone's looking to unload a set of Ninjago Movie Minifgures let me know :)).

TRU Flash Sale Friends Heartlake Performance School $59.99

Walmart must be making a push to improve their customer satisfaction with in-store order pick-up. Maybe because last year holiday time, Site-to-store was such a disaster. I remember going in for pick-up after Black Friday and having to wait in line for an hour... watching countless people in front of me with their orders "lost", or "can't find right now... come back tomorrow..." etc. Anyway... I went in last week to pick up an item, was served quickly, and was handed this small tote bag... they said it was a free gift for using walmart.com... and "please take the survey online to tell us about your satisfaction today..." A few days later I made another pick up, and got the same tote bag... this time it contained a jar of organic pasta sauce, a bottle of Slimfast, a full-sized Dove stick deodorant, and a few pieces of candy. Not all my favorite brands... but I like "free" ! Went to a different store today for pick-up, and this is what I got: A scented rear-view mirror Xmas tree, and and “personal” note from Sam Walton. Pppfff… I think I like the first store better.

lets face it they dont know what they are doing,I certainly dont.

Toy Planet/Planet Fun Toys, is that you?

Poppy’s Café by Matt Birks

I'm surprised than people are surprised. this will only get worse . not expecting any meaningful action until Cyber Monday

Let's keep this thread only for retired product updates (set number, name, S@H region). We have tons of other threads devoted to analizing past/future performance of sets / themes.

I do this all the time! If i know my item is well priced, and it has a bunch of watchers but no bites... i'll raise the price by $5 and it will sell pretty quick haha.

My battle station and Lego display

Fixed it for you.

I updated the main post and made it sticky.

For anyone who is a Costco member... Lego Creator Park Street Townhouse 31065 - $29.99

Technically not a bubble as prices haven´t fallen back to RRP or below and demand is still strong for it to be ranked in the top 100 construction toys.

Did you watch the BP video about Elves first wave sets? This one had to be deely discounted to make money. I feel the same will happend with 41180. 2 year lives will test the dragons to the max.

I've also had mixed results. I've definitely stood and waited after checking in online and with their service button, only to have a parade of employees walk past me without so much as a friendly greeting. Last year my PS was clearly thrown into a truck without an outer box and looked the part when I picked it up, but the build was still great. I also had a time last year when I picked up 2 orders of 2 $30 towers and the employee apparently only scanned one of the orders. I was given a refund for the other about a week later since I "didn't pick up". And then my most recent trip to pickup Captain America Jets, which couldn't be found in back but were on a store shelf for clearance price. Bad on them, but still good for me. No cool bags yet. Let's see if my WoN come with swag

My experience with store pickup has been a mixed bag. The worst was when I waited at the counter for 15 minutes with no one in line and no one to assist me. I checked in with the Walmart app when I arrived to the store and used the electronic notification at the counter at least 4 times. No less than 10 associates walked past me without offering to help. One associate said he would go find someone and never returned. Another customer showed up shortly after me and I wished him good luck and went on my way. I've also had them fulfill and immediately process a refund for store pickup orders. I assume this is because they could not find the items and didn't want to take a hit on their metrics. The first e-mail said my items were ready for pickup and the next one right after that said I had requested a refund.

Mistakes happen all the time. Just ask how many they intended to buy and cancel / ship accordingly

its a guess. looking at previous mid-November 2014 release of Minecraft wave 1 which were incredibly popular and easily flippable, and didn't come back in stock until Feb-March I am expecting no restockings in 2017 but its all a guess.

According to Bricklink price guide 177 were sold in the last six months and there are over 1500 currently for sale. That's around four years of supply if it keeps selling at that rate.

Use a very small amount of "Mykal Sticky Stuff Remover" on some kitchen roll, wiping across the residue so that it does not absorb into the packaging and Bob's your Uncle it's gone and you are left with a nice shine MISB box.

Back at Walmart

Barnes just likes stickers just like LL. Whenever it was I ordered 250 tots year or 2 back they all came that way and they never hit the shelves

Can't they be both?

Stickers will come off easy with heat gun or hair dryer. Anyone try to get the security tag off without damaging box?

Barnes is so whack. Sending a full case (4) and then sending a seperate package with 1 inside

Get an American Express...they are 10000% better than any other card I've ever used when it comes to their fraud algorithm. When I used to use Citi or Chase cards primarily, I would have to call in after every third or fourth purchase. With Amex, I haven't tripped a fraud alert in several years.

Very true. I have to admit, I didn't realize just how small the snowspeeder is in comparison to the x-wing (5 m vs 12.5 m length). And yet the LEGO UCS snowspeeder is larger than the LEGO UCS X-wing (either of them). I guess I would prefer to be able to place an A-wing next to my X-wing for a display. The snowspeeder is good by itself. Shame we can't realistically build an UCS AT-AT at the same scale as the UCS Snowspeeder. It would end up being HUGE: 5m length (39cm LEGO) vs 20 m length and 22.5 m height (would end up being 156 cm (5 ft) long and 176 cm (5.64 ft) tall in LEGO). lol, I'd have to remove a couch from my house to display the AT-AT.

Honestly, list now. Price will continue to drop, they hype will be over, and stores will restock.

Also bought a few from Amazon. As a wise Jedi master once said, "difficult to see...always in motion is the future" maybe Yoda was talking about Lego collecting and investing? Lego SAH uk is not showing any retiring soon just retired products e.g. 31051, 42046 and the 76042 are now labeled as retired (sorry if late to show on that news). As post above stated SAH must be the updating server and preparing to switch on the 2017 "retiring soon" lights?.....exciting!

Sold half of my inventory for ave £75. Happy to hold the rest until this gaps up to £100. Hope there is a big rush to the bottom for xmas which will clear out a lot of the competition

Its a Samsung CF791 34" Ultrawide on a articulating arm i purchased from amazon. https://www.samsung.com/us/computing/monitors/curved/34--cf791-wqhd-monitor-lc34f791wqnxza/

Just finished it WOW Now to find where to put it...

Lego can buy some ToO from my vault

Bought a Winter Village Station at 25% off, and then some train track packs and the $15 Friends Winter car set to get myself over $55 to get the Nutcracker promo. All this at LEGOLAND California.

Haven't had much luck selling colanders recently....

My first post here. I came out of the dark ages a about four months ago, in February. This set up has been up for about 2 months now. Kinda stole the wife's stand. I have the minifigures for all of the sets but did not want to put them up yet. I recently built the Parisian Restaurant and London Bridge. Brick bank is unbuilt and I believe the wife bought me the detective office for my upcoming birthday. I am messing around with some light bricks, a few wires and such can be seen sitting on top of the fire station. We are living in a condo so room is limits. Have an entire empty house though but it is 75 miles away, go figure. We rented the house out for 3 months and that really helped with the funding for this and the unpictured collection. I have been buying a lot of bulk lots in the hopes of building some fan designed buildings. I have some serious catching up to do with some of you all. I have seen some very nice setups on here and it makes me want to get mine in a better situation. I wish I hard started back sooner. I wanted to right as the modulars were coming out but was hit with too much college debt. I did get my feet a little wet right before that and got a few nice trains. You know what they say about hindsight.

I like paint
