$2 per brick isn't great, but I couldn't resist at 90% off

I got my wife to pick up 25 of the Costco 2 in 1 super packs. She wasn't happy. Said I had to buy 25 boxes of tampons to make up for it.

How's the resale market on those? Price tends to spike monthly.

Picked up a large lot on Craigslist for $150. Unfortunately, no instructions. Sets were put together still for the most part. I've been able to identify the following sets. No idea if they are complete yet, but I was able to go through the large bucket of figures and find that at least they are all included for each set that I've identified thus far. Here's what we've located to this point: 3181-1 Passenger Plane 4202-1 Mining Truck 4203-1 Excavator Transporter 4209-1 Fire Plane 4432-1 Garbage Truck 4439-1 Heavy-Lift Helicopter 4738-1 Hagrid's Hut 4842-1 Hogwarts Castle 5868-1 Ferocious Creatures 7037-1 Tower Raid 7048-1 Troll Warship 7094-1 King's Castle Siege 7097-1 Trolls' Mountain Fortress 7498-1 Police Station 7947-1 Prison Tower Rescue 9465-1 The Zombies 9469-1 Gandalf Arrives 9474-1 The Battle of Helm's Deep 9476-1 The Orc Forge 10188-1 Death Star (Boxes 2, 3, and 4 are all still sealed) 10193-1 Medieval Market Village 21105-1 The Village 21106-1 The Nether 31005-1 Construction Hauler 60001-1 Fire Chief Car 79000-1 Riddles for the Ring 79001-1 Escape from Mirkwood Spiders 79002-1 Attack of the Wargs 79003-1 An Unexpected Gathering 79010-1 The Goblin King Battle Not a bad haul for $150

The LEGO Group wins major intellectual property lawsuit against bogus bricks in China November 5, 2018: The LEGO Group today received a favourable decision from the Guangzhou Yuexiu District Court against four companies who infringed multiple copyrights of the LEGO Group and conducted acts of unfair competition by producing and distributing bogus bricks building sets. It is another significant legal victory in China for the LEGO Group in its battle against imitators over the past two years. According to the decisions issued by the court, the four defendants, Shantou Meizhi Model Co., Ltd., et al, are liable for copying the 3-dimensional artworks of 18 LEGO® sets, multiple LEGO Minifigures, as well as for carrying out unfair competition acts. The court ordered, among other things, that the four defendants shall immediately cease producing, selling, exhibiting or in any way promoting the infringing products, and shall pay the LEGO Group approximately RMB 4.5 million as damages. Niels B. Christiansen, Chief Executive Officer of the LEGO Group said: “We welcome the court’s ruling. We believe these decisions are well-founded in the facts and the law, and clearly demonstrate the continued efforts of Chinese authorities to protect intellectual property. It also shows the authorities’ commitment to creating a fair business environment for all companies operating in China. The court’s decisions state that the bogus bricks manufacturer and sellers must immediately cease copying the 18 LEGO sets that have been found protectable by the court. These rulings send a clear warning message to other companies who may be copying LEGO products. We will continue to take all necessary legal actions to protect our intellectual property rights.” Christiansen added: “When children and shoppers choose a LEGO product, they expect the highest quality and the safest play experience. We cannot have them being misled in any way. While we welcome fair competition, if someone misuses our intellectual property and seeks to take advantage of consumers’ trust, we will take action.” Over the past two years, the LEGO Group has obtained positive outcomes in its intellectual property enforcement actions in China. In October 2017, the LEGO Group won a case at Shantou Intermediate Court against BELA, a Chinese toy manufacturer, for infringing the copyrights of the LEGO Group and for unfair competition. In another case decided earlier in July 2017, the LEGO logo and the LEGO word mark were recognized by the Beijing Higher Court as “well-known” trademarks in China. https://www.lego.com/da-dk/aboutus/news-room/2018/november/bogus bricks-case/

Do you report yourself to the police when you go over the speed limit?

Like other sets, all of these have the word "toy" in the title. I added these to the list up top.

I'm sure Chinese companies producing counterfeit goods will abide by this.

That explains why my Nexo Knights sets haven't been selling.

i ? carini26 - this is just silly with the giftcard. could i have them delivered on a silver platter.

Lol, I have a nearly identical photo from my local Target. Planograms are amazing

What a Daily Deal! Sent from my SM-G955U using Brickpicker Forum mobile app

Yo, don't poke my bear.

you opened a case because you are not asked for the certification?

Just now looking at my listings and I have at least 10 on that list I have sold in past. No email though. Opened a case about Lowrider because I am currently selling those.

Orders have been shipping rather quickly today .. not even an hour in most cases

haha, maybe you snatched them all up. $399 is still too much to stomach. The return is low on that until near end of life.

time to go incognito

ha - you beat me to it - was just coming on to post the same... but I'm not biting - would love to, but saving my $$ for Black Friday deals...

Taj Mahal for 399, amazon has it for $410. Not sure if I'll bite on this. 10% off is not bad for an exclusive.

10% Ebay Bucks on purchases over $150 until 11:59PT tomorrow. Of course I made a purchase for $180 yesterday =/

The hilarious part is genuine clearance bin Nexo has always worked out cheaper to buy than the Chinese fakes!

Two or three orders, probably ok. More than that in a short time period and you may get the nasty letter/email.

Proceed at your own risk. Target doesn't like resellers and has taken action in various ways in the past, but "reasonable" (interpret that however you wish) numbers of multiple orders usually make it through OK.

Escort Girls aren´t protectable?

Cobra Kai season 2 BTS preview:

I wouldn't go that far. Target meets its delivery estimates about half the time. I currently have a couple orders that were pushed out weeks. When they got slammed by Lego orders for the giftcards it was taking 2-3 days to just process the order. Target and Walmart are definitely catching up in terms of relevancy. Not sure what their profitability looks like at the moment but I can't imagine they are as efficient as Amazon.

Bump..... Hey Guys and Gals.....just wanted to pass on a couple of extra 10% coupons for WM online shopping. I have 5 available..... first 5 PM's will get a code.... I would rather give one to 5 different poeple, not all to one. Happy shopping!! GONE!!! I hope they work for you guys!!

Target matched the Silent Mary price. Too bad I already bought one from Walmart

How's the resale market on those? My best bet would be to get some pumpkin spice seasonals and resell them in the spring. I'm sure the margins will be thin, but I'm up for the challenge.

How's the resale market on those?

Glad to have one of these.

Run... by Nick Sweetman

Just picked up a 40305 Lego Brand Store at my local Lego store (Troy, MI) for $25. I didn't think this was available in the US. It does not show up on the US Lego SAH site.

Realistically, there is no need for them to request safety documentation for items that Amazon currently sells or has sold in the past. If the products were not deemed safe, then why was Amazon selling them in the first place? These requirements make sense in certain situations such as when a new toy listing is created by a 3P seller, but not for products that Amazon sells/has sold.

I compiled the list of sets revealed as needing safety certifications and I'll sticky it: 10232 10722 10724 10728 10734 10735 10737 10746 10747 10808 10811 10815 10823 10855 31047 31048 31050 31051 31052 31053 31058 31062 31063 31065 41118 41119 41124 41128 41130 41149 41175 41185 42053 60147 60151 60152 70348 70349 70622 70627 70906 76081 Also, here is the Amazon Forum thread BA posted earlier: https://sellercentral.amazon.com/forums/t/toy-safety-certification-denied-product-image-rejected/425424?
