Don't get too caught up in something retiring. There are plenty of duds that retire, too. But, if you can get 75% off anything, it's best to grab it. It will retire some day, and even duds at 75% are winners.

Red creatures 31032 for $75. Yay!

I sold 10 Poe X-wing Fighter polybags for $60 via eBay. Glad to have gotten rid of these. Much I have learned when it comes to investing in polys.......

We make 0% on gift cards. Too bad! We make 0% on most things today. It all went to hell.

Woot. 2-pack. 3 diff sizes available from $29.99-39.99

Super Hero Airport Battle (76051) also gone.

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 :)).

Down to 31 Steamrollers. I've been listing a lot of items on the local Facebook buy & sell pages lately. I've had pretty good success so far. It's the perfect market to unload medium to small sized sets. Most of my sales on there are from women looking to buy an awesome gift for someone at a reasonable price. Occasionally I'll get a collector who will drop a few hundo on a large retired exclusive. The best part is that there are zero fees, zero shipping, and because I can check out their profile beforehand I have them come by to pick it up. I've also developed a few repeat buyers this way. With Christmas coming up I expect to do very well through this avenue, and hopefully move through the majority of my Steamrollers. Yes, I still have all of the Rey's Speeders, but only because I haven't tried to sell any yet. I need the damn thing to retire first!

EBay Full set of 8 Bricktober mini modulars for $155+ shipping

Nope! Epic Dragon Battle is 1.75x RRP already.

Storage fees are not a good indicator of how big or small a seller is . If you are churning your inventory at the right rate than you are doing it right and your storage fees should be low .

FRAUD ALERT: legofanstore.com This was reported on the Lego Ambassador forum today. Website was registered today and is a scary good copy of Lego's site. Posting in DD because this is the most viewed thread. Mods move if you think appropriate.

You left 75% off LEGO on the shelf? May I ask why? It’s not like this is Chima or Angry Birds. Ninjago is a good seller.

Fixed it for you.

I echo this. Kids and I went to the Lego store on Friday night, and I hadn't planned on buying it, but it was in stock. Thought what the hell, full price, no promo, just going to do it. The build is just fantastic. I just admire the designers who come up with this stuff. The head mechanism works amazingly well for the constraints of trying to make two round balls out of mostly squared bricks. If you're on the fence at all just get one, really fun build that comes together beautifully.

Are you trying to say you ordered the soup and are satisfied? It's really not a meal you know.

OH NO.. ITS NEVER GOING TO END! http://www.starwars.com/news/rian-johnson-writer-director-of-star-wars-the-last-jedi-to-create-all-new-star-wars-trilogy

I got lucky and bought a #75053 The Ghost locally for $75. It seems to be original seals.

No, sounds like a pain in the a$$. I try to sell local as much as possible and not use eBay as much. No fees and no returns.

Ummm, much more helpful ones have been though.

yikes.... small timer like me is getting this much storage fee.. imagine how much @Bold-Arrow; @redcell; @asharerin; and all those planets--- are paying sorry if i missed @trekgate502; @biking_tiger; @exciter1 and other avid FBA veterans

I think this set will do just fine 2-3 years after retirement even if bought at RRP. Obviously any discount you can manage helps reduce the risk and pads the bottom line, but when the signs of retirement start to show I have a feeling we will all be buying up whatever stock remains at full retail just to have a few of these in our brickfolios. This set really stands out for all of the reasons already mentioned. I'm hoping it only has a two year life, but I have a hunch this one might stay in production longer than that.

How did you get a pre-order in on the new Taj Mahal 3 weeks before general release?

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

You and I, both... I was thinking of building one this Christmas, just to clear some shelf space. The part-out value on BL (£295) is still £70 more than the average selling price. I take solace in that at least I don't have the double figure numbers in stock that many on here do. Sorry guys!

yup that game is over in the UK, i'm not missing carting those larger boxes to post office.

Don't know about how anyone else feels about these, but my days of stashing the larger sets has gone. Will buy for personal build, but prefer to now buy 10 smaller sets for the same money and make twice as much profit in the same time span. Takes up less shelf space, not subject to fraud as often and makes for an all round easier life :-)

A couple years ago, during post Christmas Walmart clearance shopping, I had made a few medium sized purchases. From experience, I expected to trigger my card's fraud prevention, so I actually called them before my next purchase, explained the situation, and requested my fraud detection be turned off or whatever flag they could turn on my account. Customer service said they understood, no problem, etc - Get to the next store, make a $600 purchase, and of course, card declined. So maddening. On a side note, I love you guys casually talking about ordering a couple thousand sets off Walmart. I am not sure if you're just big time flippers or there's something obvious I am not seeing, but I have no idea what stuff is being bought at this time of year for 15-20% off en masse, not sure if I should be scared or not.

Thought the same thing, why is the stand off center like that? Is there a functional reason or is more of a fashion statement. Keyboard looks pretty sweet too.

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/

The "fake" retirement is usually returns or orders that get cancelled from the last batch. I don't think it will stick around long.

Resurrections are common for UK/EU S@H. This is why we use US S@H to get definitive list of retired sets. ie. It is not retired until US S@H shows retired

True story! Except I'm down to 34 Steamrollers.
