Which is a clear advantage over not even having these stores. ?

You could try mentioning to her: "While I certainly do understand your wanting to reclaim the basement, you do realize that the bedroom is going to crowded with an awful lot of LEGO."

Good morning all, I’ve received lots of interest so far. Please pm the following in your request: 1. Zip code 2. Preferred ship method 3. If you want them in their boxes or just the poly bags and instructions (less shipping cost). 4. Set and quantity of each. 5. If the shipping estimate is higher than actual, I’ll return the difference or add to your St Paul donation, your choice. Some have offered to pay more than the extra $1 per set. Anything paid over cost will be added to your donation. Thanks for your generosity [emoji3] For those with larger orders (>50), I can probably get another 50x Unikitty, Slimer and 75x Chase. If these interest you, pm me and I’ll arm sweep them on my way home. Cheers all! Sent from my iPhone using Brickpicker Forum

can't you quickly cover the boxes with tie die sheets and construct some sort of crude mancave to stave off the territorial grab? maybe sprinkle a few fake spiders and snakes and a can of musty odor. forego any controlling of the television /video streaming remote? my wife was contemplating the same move until i made her the sole employee-propreitor of my lego based business and put 20% of my profit into an ira with her name on it. basement err "lower level" problem solved. also pay less in taxes to da guberment and wife gets retirement account. win win win.

The set looks fantastic! Especially the new printed tiles which include the mustang logo on the the 1 x 1 tile round. Let us know your thoughts on the upcoming Ford Mustang Fastback in the comments section below!

Quite a bit of stock out there. Here’s what I found today: Slimer, Unikitty, Chase, Powerpuff, Hermione, ET, Doc, Nya. I also have onesies or twosies from last year laying around: Bad Cop, Gollum, Legolas, Bart, Homer. I should have over a hundred assorted total. I’ll fill the requests I got today first. If anyone else wants any of these, let me know. I left quite a bit on the shelves and don’t mind going back out. There’s an abundance of Slimer, Chase, and Unikitty.

Nothing boring about them at all. The majority of them are great sets. Golden Rule - Don't dive in at RRP Lego Movie was far superior.

Ditto. Just contributed. I'm hoping the 5,000 Piece BrickPicker Mystery Lot is really 185.1851 Chima Worriz Fire Bikes. If it's not, I'm going to be upset.

This is a good summary of why I keep an off-site unit. If you can spend the time to be super organized about it, it can be much more efficient. I use only 3-4 common box sizes to ease stacking and maximize the space usage. I also use a virtual 3D grid, to assign each box with a location ID within the unit. My spreadsheet then stores what each box has inside, and where it's located. It takes time on the front end, but it makes it very easy to pull stock when an item meets my price target. Extra Space does. I think they allow one to pay up to 1 year in advance at the current rental rate. This needs to be done in month 3 or 4 though. I've never tried with PS.

I checked my local store Friday and they had plenty of Powderpuff and Slimer with some city, Wu, and Nya scattered. I became friends with the manager during round one so I asked to be in the loop on shipments. next shipment for my store was unpacked Sunday. This one had a lot more Powderpuff and E.T. appeared. This time I got to take boxes. They simply re packed the Lego factory boxes once stickers were placed. In talking with the manager, she indicated this may be like last time where there will be different packs trickling in over the course of a few weeks. I plan to check periodically to see what shows up. YMMV.

no, you are wrong assuming that its a "crazy concept"... I love, tender and cherish to have my Batman collection to be complete.. and Im really glad that there are others - out there - who feel the same way and do not scrutinize every purchase like: what is it worth in xxx years? does it pay off to stock it.. ? etc..

If any Brickpicker is interested in these discounted Dimension sets, I’ll send them to you at $0 profit.($1.99+tax+shipping+$1). I will donate the extra $1 per set to the St. Paul raffle in your name. If you prefer to remain anonymous, pm me. I’m going to visit a couple of stores today, so let me know how many you want and which ones. Caveat: I visited a 99c store yesterday and only found 1x Doc and 2x Chase. Store clerk did say that more may come in on Monday. So no promises. Sent from my iPhone using Brickpicker Forum

Finally got around to finishing up my Tatooine diorama. The mini Sandcrawler is something I built a couple of years ago. Tried a bit of forced perspective with mixed results.

Room just about finished. Sadly my budget didn't buy me bespoke shelving so I had to settle for cube shelving. Doesn't work for the big sets so these have to sit on top. Overall, pleased with the effort and it has cleared other areas of the house. We now have space that we never thought we had! If my better half gets cross, at least I can sleep with the Lego!

Nice - My carrier told me that this one was a popular topic of conversation back at the office today.

Buy some alcohol swabs from the local pharmacy. As mentioned, if no edges are peeled, they work exceptionally, and alcohol dries up almost immediately, saves the effort of toweling them off one by one.

I just use a damp cloth to get any dust or obvious dirt off. Definitely cant soak em......... Had a few sneak by in bulk batch and the stickers do not hold up. You could run em under water quickly and then dry em off immediately. This is definitely ok if the sticker appears in good shape and adhered along all edges.

All kidding aside, if someone finds that green Powerpuff girl, I would be in the market for a couple of them.

I dont charge more then $15 USD shipping (In Canada) it just seems alot when i know for the same package in the USA it costs 2.55 USD and will get to the east Coast in 2 days or less. I only sells Small New in Box sets online. and Used Misc Stuff, Mini-figures etc etc.. So i doubt im really competing with anyone. PM if you want my ebay user name to have a look at my listings, im all for feedback. We are all working together here for the better of the Lego community. We just do what works for us.

may also be tax implications if you are shipping within Canada if you are going over the 30k/yr then you have to deal with all the hst/pst kerfuffle...

Ahhh, that makes sense. You're not taking much of their time if you do it ahead of time. I imagine it would also suck if you were trying to ship a half dozen modulars or other big sets unless you had one of these?

Briefly at amazon.

His rocket pack doesn't fire? Still upset with Kenner about that

House and windmill are available

My personal preference is even: TLM >>> TLNM >>> TLBM I enjoyed myself more during the Ninjago movie than the Lego Batman movie. But of course, different people have different preferences.

I've not found UK customers to be picky at all. Fair enough if you advertise as MISB and demand a premium then you may get a complaint if it falls below that but that's only fair. I tend to list all my items as NISB with a proviso that if you are after a mint box further checks and photos can be provided before purchase if messaged. I've had one person contact me to make sure an item was mint and it was for the TRU bricktober Ninjago Minifigures. I would say most of my sales are either to collectors who want to build or people buying presents for family & Friends. I've not had a single complaint about box condition on an item I've sold in the UK or Europe. For items with a good amount of box damage i either part out or list at 10% below current asking prices, in most cases if a sets value has gone up and v is ib demand the damaged set quickly sells.

I know it is shocking but some people here actually collect lego and don't resell. Crazy concept I know. Besides people invest in all kind of things they are not familiar with. In most cases, lego sets are not targeting to adults so it doesn't matter if I like the movie or not, I am not the target audience.

TLM much better movie and much better investments IMO than the TLBM

Yep, they sold well here

I thought we had very different opinions this confirms it. I really like batman and the original Batman Lego sets were what got us started in lego reselling... I thought the Lego Movie was much better than the batman lego movie and had a bigger appeal to kids as well..Go figure

House is back in stock! https://www.walmart.com/ip/LEGO-Classic-60th-Anniversary-Limited-Edition-House-4000028-Online-Only/312205451

Not much. I wouldn't waste your time.

Bought a Black Pearl on CL for $165 complete with instructions and all minifigures. Bought one last year for $160, sold on BL for $303.

Finally got round to buying the snowspeeder. Although a more accurate and detailed build with nice touches still prefer the original since I fell it’s more imposing since a bit blockier.

Could you fix that 4th one from the bottom left corner.... it's screaming at me. (and since you're there, maybe the 7th one from the bottom left too, but that isn't too bad)

So I wanted to see if I could build a set and I’m supposed to move my arm to get my elbow to loosen up (that’s where the break is). Pulled out a smaller set I hadn’t built yet. Not too bad. Used my bad wing to collect each piece from the pile to get it some exercise. Nice little build. Bought this totally for the Ugnaut. Might bust out the Destiny’s Bounty next.

Picked up 7894 airport from a charity shop for a fiver, box was a bit faded. Expected the worst when I put it together this afternoon. To my amazement all present and correct mint with all three instruction books. Looks like it was built twelve years ago and put straight back in the box again, right result ??

Sold Davey Jones, found him in a load of random Playmobil we got at a charity shop, so no buy in. Really sorry to see him go. Sold for £55 on ebay, £44 profit after fees and postage.

You got banned so hard you spun around the other way and ended up a black level VIP

Great build. Had not built a proper lego ship in about 20 years.

Finished off the Detective’s Office tonight. Probably among my top 3 Modular Buildings so far in my collection.

Lego Creative Toolbox 17101

Got a Saturn V and key chains and promo set from SAH. Promo set box is in excellent condition. Have to say that this is the best packaged set I have received from them. A+ to Lego.

Seriously? What are you running, a box museum?

The black card worked wonders for me. I was in line at the local coffee shop and I reached in my wallet and picked up my LEGO card by mistake. A few young ladies saw me whip out a black card and instantly their interest me tripled. I could feel their gazes and hear them licking their lips at the thought. Then my thumb moved and they spotted the Millennium Falcon, and not the Mastercard logo. Not only did their interest drop, but it fell in half compared to the original interest level. My wife had quite the laugh.

Here is a 6 month update for those that were curious. The ship has weathered quite nicely. The only thing I'm worried about is the sails, they look great now, but I don't know about long term. It has not been a maintenance nightmare, as a matter of fact, our cleaner fish and snails do an excellent job!! We get more comments on this display than any of our other displays....people love it!!! I'll post a one year update just for sh*ts and giggles.

10,000x 4x2 black plates for £250 cash. . how a sale (like ths) looks like? You bring on some bags with counted pcs inside or just a scale to weight?

I do! Hopefully this helps.

I believe it is from Harry Potter, but maybe pirate theme
