Accepting loses is part of the business. Having the company you are working with essentially steal your inventory and not follow through on there own business policies is a whole other issue. I hate that I am saying this, but similar with the government, Amazon holds an extremely large amount of power regarding our inventory and they need to be held accountable. When people start rolling over and accepting 2K of inventory vanishing we are essentially working for the mafia...6 points

Yep, I think standing up for your rights as a seller shouldn't be something that is questioned, no matter the size of business.4 points

I don’t really get the hate tbh. Sure there were unlikeable elements (Leia’s space swim, the whole casino section) but on the whole it was a rip roaring space adventure in the tradition of the series. It felt fresh and unpredictable. I liked Luke as a grumpy old man who’d lost his confidence and faith. I liked Kylo killing his master to replace him (it certainly didn’t go the way I thought). I liked the tension between Hux and Kylo and how they both kept making bad decisions. The Force Awakens was criticised for being a tired rehash of A New Hope and The Last Jedi is criticised for being too different so maybe it is impossible to please everyone.3 points

Prepare yourself, another EBay code for New Years Day. This will stack nicely with the Target EBay gift card from last week.3 points

Season´s greetings to you too Trump has made a second career out of doing the same so no harm no foul. To give a proper explanationfor the prediction rather than just making a snide remark, both previous waves of Elves have had sets that have done well and other that haven´t (jut like most themes). The smallest sets have always done well so far and the biggest ones have struggled (unless you got a great buy-in). It´s not possible that all of these will be winners now the cat is out of the bag. Sets like 84 and 85 seem to be the weakest due to content and that has been borne out by their sales rank on Amazon. As I also mentioned, there are going to be difference between US and Euro markets and my prediction is based on Euro demand and supply. Let´s check back in a year and see how I did.2 points

It's pretty appropriate that your favorite classification for sets is "turd" since you're basically pulling all of your opinions out of your a**. ...and yet you don't let that stop you from concluding that a set will crash and burn.2 points

That´s why Fast and Furious is so successful. They make the same movie a hundred times over and just change the actors one at a time. The one time they tried something different (Tokyo drift) it tanked.1 point

And even at Amazon, retired sets come back into stock too - sometimes months afterwards. I snagged a Mystery Machine a month back, for instance. February is a great month for that as many companies do their external auditor supervised inventories and "find" new stock.1 point

If we all individually send letters to amazon( Jeff and his goons ) regarding this issue that concerns the same FC it is bound to get some attention . It is a matter of principle at this point .1 point

4 sellers on Amazon US, 11 on Bricklink, is inventory really that dry or are people holding a bunch? How is it doing in the EU?1 point

Fortunately my local stores put this sticker on the bottom of the box, not the front. I have been able to get them off with hair dryer and Goo Gone, but it definitely takes more work than your standard Target clearance sticker.1 point

I think that you are misreading why Amazon put the gates in to begin with. Amazon doesn't care about where Lego sellers get their product...Amazon just wants to make sure that it is authentic and that people selling Lego on their platform aren't scammers who will erode confidence in their marketplace. The scam sellers not only hit Amazon's reputation, but they cost Amazon money due to returns. Amazon put the gate in as one way to ensure that anyone seeking to sell Lego on Amazon is a legit seller and isn't a scammer. However, Amazon is also smart enough to know that there is no sense in throwing the baby out with the bath water so they grandfathered sellers with established track records of selling Lego. They did that last year when the gates first went in, but then expanded on their "grandfathering" this year by allowing sellers who meet certain unknown metrics to get automatically ungated for a wide variety of gated products. At the end of the day, Amazon wants quality sellers on their platform and will allow quality sellers to sell almost any product that the brand manufacturer hasn't instituted strict brand controls over once they have a proven track record.1 point

The baby wind dragon seems to have grown up. The demand on this one will be interesting. I'm not sure if the lightning wings will be a draw, or a deterrent. But this is also the only dragon revealed thus far, so that may give it the largest draw out in the current line. Hoping the lack of real wings on this one helps my stacks and stacks of Water and Fire dragons. Also thinking, even with the big purple dragon, the Dragon Sanctuary won't take a big hit on this one due to the lack of wings.1 point

Another one ! 1 x 21020 Trevi Fountain for 100 euros (65 euros profit, after 1 year hold) Got a few left and raised the price as they are going fast, perfect little investment as the set is easy to shipp, low buy in and great ROI.1 point

While the Last Jedi was disappointing, to be fair, I think this movie was so much better than Force Awakens. However, it just seems like Disney is turning Star Wars into big merchandising opportunities without any concern for the content.1 point

It's funny you mention "the phantom menace" episode 1... i too had Flashbacks to that horrible time I walked out of the theater and flat out lied to the channel 6 news crew interviewing peeps and said, "...it was a good Flick..." total lie then, and now it's repeated itself...I think the whole deal that this film to us 'Star Wars die hards' is that we don't want it to fail, we want it to be great, but what we got was an editing nightmare with mediolcre clone war lore integrated into a moshpit of half baked storylines that basically killed a near perfect setup from episode 7, destroyed iconic Long time characters(Luke), and sold out to Cash in on "porG" sales.... i did think the the movie was well directed as far as the cinematic shots and scenes go...but whatever happened in the editing after that I'm sure they were all smoking Bantha Fodder and green Intant Muffins...1 point

You consider Finn and Rose romantic? They acted like fifth graders with each other. There was more romance between Finn and Poe in TFA.1 point
