3 points3 points3 pointsLet´s face it, if all valued customers were the sharpest knives in the set, we´d be struggling to sell anything. We rely a lot on misinformed, rich, lazy, capricious or high/drunk people to do business.3 points2 points2 points2 pointsLovely, Lego sending their sale stock in original shippers so mint phantoms
2 pointsLooking at the price I would say Lego doesn't want many sales. Shame as i wanted this, would look great after several modifications to the ship.2 points
Bottle looks fantastic. Ship not so much. The original ship was so much better. If the ship had looked like the original, I would have bought it for sure. Now......maybe for 50% off.2 points2 points2 points2 pointsFellow Brits I think he's giving us some stick! Apparently occasional discounts on Lego is all that good about us!! as for discounts. The US gets the best, whole themes for 50% off or more. Those guys are filling their cars as we speak. Over in the Uk yes we get the occoasionK good deal but they are often limited to a few sets and only at a handful of stores. I got lucky this time, but most deal chases are a bust.2 pointsMy backordered Winter Holiday Train arrived and the shipping box included this "collect them all" sticker. Normally, I'd just give something like this away, but if there's some mystery or bigger game to it, I'd hold onto it. It seems silly in its simplicity and plainness to make 4 generic brick stickers a worthy marketing campaign. Oh wait, maybe if you collect all 4, you get banned. I see what's going on now.
2 points2 points2 points2 pointsI not worried at all. Well actually, I started selling my Harry Potter sets when I first heard rumors of the new Harry Potter sets for 2018. These are my sets with boxes, I actually have tons without boxes. But by mid summer, I should have sold all of my Harry Potter inventory.

1 pointDidn't know this place existed until my friend called me this morning... Geoffrey's Bargain Box - TRU clearance outlet in Buena Park.
1 pointI think Tabby has enough anecdotes to write a book about Lego investing. Probably include a free Doctor Who with each copy sold too.1 pointYou sure you're not just ordering extra shiz when you've had a few too many shandys? This is not the first, second or third time you've told us of sellers sending you extra significant sets. You must be a very lucky guy1 point1 pointOnly ordered one Kwik-E-Mart from Smyth's but the packaging was the best I've had. Oversized box with many, many air cushions.1 point1 pointnot necessarily a deal but thought it was interested. A little too expensive for my blood...but only 43 left1 point1 pointLEGO UCS FALCON available Walmart.com https://www.walmart.com/ip/LEGO-Star-Wars-Millennium-Falcon-75192/1388579691 pointDesk display potential is key here. I think the original would just have been too large for what it "is" and Lego probably couldn't meet the price point they wanted. Unfortunate they had to scale it down, but I don't see that if it was any larger that the demand would have been that uch greater for the extra $$ it would cost on both ends. Edit: I would be interested to see if the mini 6285 from the 60th set fits in this bottle.1 pointSears had a miserable, miserable Christmas http://money.cnn.com/2018/01/10/news/companies/sears-sales-plunge-cost-cuts/index.html Best quote:1 point1 pointReturns are limited by Lego. It´s probably not worth their while doing lots of movements. Gets people into shops to buy other stuff too.1 point1 point1 point1 pointThe whole reason prices go so low at Tesco in store is the value of the shelf space. It's as simple as that and has very little of anything to do with Lego marketing. Once Christmas has passed Tesco need the extra space they allocated to toys back for other items like Valentines stuff & Easter Eggs1 pointOoohh....must...collect....them all..... haha1 point
1 pointPoof ...doh! I think half of my posts are: “Poof...” Or “gone...” I’m starting to get a complex.1 point
1 pointAccording to shop assistant anytime soon, UK Sale, a few sets worth getting if info is correct, normally would wait for sale to start before posting but prices are going in right direction.1 point1 point1 pointMe and my mountain of multiples of 7 sand baseplates all say you guys suck.
1 point1 point1 point1 pointYeah, they need to cancel @mauro23 order first then you´ll be sweet.
1 pointHaha, no kidding. Someone wrote instructions that use the Tower Bridge to create a modular building. About to drop $20 on those...1 pointWas able to move all my 75101 First Order TIE Fighters over the course of a couple days this past weekend. Priced them to sell at $70 and they flew off the proverbial shelf. Buy-in was $30 during Barnes and Noble clearance last year. Locally sold a Smaug and Laketown set together for $200 as well. I'm happy to see the stock dwindling down, but I think my T1 Campers and Tower Bridges might get buried with me.1 pointDon't forget that the baby dragon in 41173 Elvendale School of Dragons was a repeat from 41077 Aira's Pegasus Sleigh (which isn't doing great either). So if demand would primarily originate from the inlusion of baby dragons the repeat would split the demand between two sets.1 point1 pointHis life took a downward trend if he's slinging responses for Bezos these days...
1 point1 pointWell, glad I took the opportunity when it was available to me. The offer got sold out at some point during the day, and only 3rd party offers are available now, at > €70. I helped getting the stock down.1 point
1 point1 point$299 zoo $29-$119 different enclosures Even easy to do hot dog stands, different animals in polybags, other vendors Zoo would do amazing. Every city would have a zoo area waiting for every new set. Collectors would demand to have EVERY animal/set1 pointI'm in the exact same situation as you. Congrats in starting to get rid of it. I have a basement full, the same as you, with many large sets. I'd like to just have someone get a uhaul and take it all out of here. I'd sell for no profit at all. I have about 100K into them I think. Started in 2011 but also have bought a few sets this year.1 point1 pointWow, I just about fell off my high horse when I checked what this set is going for on USAmazon. 265 USD FBA is amazing considering you can still find it discounted over here and it is barely breaking above RRP (SAH marked it down to 50% off).1 pointI 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 me1 pointSo ... One year after official retirement, and two years after the last post about this set, what do people think about this set ? It hasn't reached original RRP yet, as far as I can see. At least on Bricklink. Not an instant winner, that's for sure.1 point1 pointI really like the new dragons as well. Are you talking about this castle @Alpinemaps? I saw it at Target tonight. It's a really good looking set. As an added bonus, I feel like this set has a Maleficent's Castle sort of vibe to it. I think the recent Disney CMF would look great if Elves mini-dolls aren't your bag.
