Wow your real name is superheat I am envious

It isn't because their fear of competition - It is because of their shame.

Sounds like they have been breeding. Maybe that´s why Lego´s own warehouse took so long to sell out.

The additional benefit is a free chip to place on your shoulder year round.

PM then use GC .should be an easy 40% off

Wrong.......IMO

GC are now 25% off at Cardpool ... come on 80%...

Four each of Ayesha’s Revenge and Friends Bumper Cars 50% off from Target. (Left four ARs and two BCs on the shelf) Sent from my iPhone using Brickpicker Forum mobile app

That's not how you wear them?

That Chewbacca OMG that is so bad. It is hilarious, like some deformed puppy. And what are those tentacles below his mouth. And that foresk.. I mean forehead. What was LEGO thinking? WHY?

Guess I’m generating my last reward and spending it today. Bummer, because I have a few rewards sitting there that they haven’t processed yet.

Re Cardpool GC , i was asked for my ID again today and the not so friendly lady made sure to give me a lecture about gift card fraud and blah blah and that she will only do it this time . guess I need to wait for my regular peeps to man the register .

Holy outstaying your welcome, Batman! It´s finally sold out at US SAH.

Remember those 3 cents items they wouldn´t sell you? In a few weeks they´ll be glad for the 3 cents.

They also told me they could only price match local competitors and they are really cracking down. In other words, gestapo lady was making sh!t up on the fly.

Tell the full story, missing an important piece here: Giggled while whispering "sucker" under her breath and said they "would reveal double points again" in May.

I miss the days when LEGO values would increase - Remember when our biggest problem was not having purchased enough of the best performers.

Selling unopened, original till in original LEGO shipping box complete sets(8) of Ninjago #2257. Jay vs. Frakjaw. Retired by manufacturer in 2011. $180.00+shipping.no holds.

TRU bumped up its free shipping threshold to $99 now...

Used the $15 back on $30 today combined with a $5 on $5 sporting goods coupon, as well as a $20 back on $20 tools promo at Sears combined with a $20 on $30 FC coupon. There's also a $30 back on $50 in store at Sears.... Plus the $10 on $10 in car pickup bonus .... And 25% back on SmartSense ..... Tons of options to get good point bonuses.

Even with that deal the Milano's are almost cheaper at Walmart's regular price here that at Target. $69.99 at Target and $56.00 at Walmart

eBay has a 15% discount right now (at least for US and I think Canada). I pulled the trigger on a box.

Not loving this “box is part of the set” trend...

It does look good!

Excite'R'us I think ExciteMart might be more appropriate.

I've been collecting them for 20 years. If your looking for lego on CL start searching 'arcade' while your there. I have gotten plenty of games for $50-200 over the years. Stay away from the multigame crap though. They make a great place to store lego boxes.

For fans of the original Tron: A kind of obscure toy company in Japan called "Medicom" released a great series of Tron collectibles under their "Kubrick" line. They were only released in Asia and are rare here in the states. You can sometimes find them on ebay for a reasonable price. I have two of the sets. Great packaging and very accurate to the movie. Google it.

I don`t think so. They will sell like hot cakes because there is a bad ass dino! The only problem is that customers have to buy more sets to create a real bad ass hybrid dinosaur. "Collect them all" sounds very promising to me! ?

LOL...I appreciate your optimism. The May the 4th has turned out to be a big terd the last few years.

Feeling old, this was 21 years ago this week.

If you're in Canada, you are not an hour from where they ship (I don't know where you think they ship from?). ALL of the orders I have ever placed with LEGO S@H have shipped from the states and my most recent boxes say Southaven MS. That said, ordering on a Monday should get the parcels to you by Friday .. maybe Thursday, maybe Monday of the next week. You don't want to take that chance by listing something early, having it sell and then missing your shipping window. Generally speaking, if you have to rely on ordering online (unless it's next day delivery) you won't beat the people who have a store 10 mins from their house. And then you have to contend with the people who buy _hoping_ to flip for a profit, and when that doesn't materialize in 2 hours after they've listed start dropping their prices. Shipping in Canada isn't cheap so flipping these low cost items is also hard .. let's do some math: $12.99 for a single. + 13% tax (I am assuming your in Ontario given your profile picture) = $14.67. This little thing is going to be somewhere between $11 and $13 to ship in Canada if you print your label on eBay (that is still the biggest discount available, get yourself a free small business account so you can ship expedited at the counter). Do you have boxes already? Or are you paying for them? I buy boxes for bigger sets, try to recycle for little sets... boxes are from $1-$3 depending on where you buy (uline.ca has all kinds of shapes and sizes but there is no free shipping). Let's say you list for 2x RRP and remember, online shoppers aren't going to consider your tax paid as part of 2x RRP. $26 + $11 = $37. Whoa, that's almost 3x RRP now! Let's assume it sells, and we subtract some fees... $26 - ebay's 10% [$2.60] and paypal's 3% [$0.78] + their per tx [$0.30]... nets you $22.32. (you did list in Canadian dollars right? if you list in US, PayPal's exchange rate back to Canadian dollars isn't commission free .. they lie). So now you've made a little money... $22.32 - 14.67 = $7.65 + $0.65 in VIP points. $8 is 54.5% profit for a fair bit of work... to double your money, you need to list at about 2.5x RRP. NOW don't get me wrong, I am not saying don't try .. in fact, selling the poster could net you a few dollars more and that could be shipped in a padded envelope much cheaper (though they'll run you about $0.50 each if you buy enough). If you've never sold, it's good practice, might get you a feedback or two if you package them up really well. But it's a risk .. what will you do if you don't sell them? Build them? Birthday presents? What a hassle to return them.. or hold them for 2 years while they appreciate and everyone else bought them for 30%+ off or during 2x VIP or during the mini beetle promotion which brought their original cost waaaay down and selling for 1.5x RRP nets them that 50% profit. I know this is a little more general than just Brickheadz, but I think it illustrates why we sometimes chuckle and discourage people from trying to flip these things .. a few folks around here seem to have the magic touch to get these things from the stores early and most certainly they've made some cash, but unless you're expecting a shortage of Brickheadz availability (pretty unlikely with the smaller sets it seems) then it's high risk, low reward and most of us can't be bothered.
