are we factoring in driving, time , and gas ? cause I like to order sitting on my sofa , sipping coco in my Bronie PJs

And we all know that the average BPer's hourly rate is a three digit figure..... $4.37

Eiffel Tower 21019 is on rollback $20.99

one of the best promotion stacks in a long time. Even if you didn't do in store which wasn't much better as the VIP doesn't net a ton anymore anyways. Probably last one that could rival was whatever it was with T1, T1 mini and a few other things thrown in. Basically got T1's down to 50 off. This by far if done right was about 75-90 in promotions depending on platform minus fees, double points and if in store another 15 or so. Plus depending on what you bought some stuff you could make on at retail. It was almost as if LEGO was paying us to buy.

10251 Brick Bank $145.70 at Amazon.

Not necessarily a stack, but my personal favorite was the bonus VIP points "make-up" offer for the Darth Vader minifig which got cancelled due to QA issues, where every SW purchase, no matter how small, got you bonus VIP points (was it 100 or 500 points, I forget). Stacked well with SW brickheadz/Microfighters that were on sale.

Once you see the missing piece in this cover picture, you cannot unsee it ....

Staying away from the large box sets like this. One too many AMZ returns for some stupid crap the buyer did. Yes, it went up and value, but AMZ takes their pound of flesh and then it only takes one idiot soccer mom or scammer and it eats heavily into profits. Give me a pallet of $12 junior sets I can arm sweep for $4 and sell for $40-$50 all day long over this

Few decent deals popped up at entertainment earth if you’re looking for Kessel Run Falcon ($118.99), BB-8 ($64.99), and Iron Man Detroit Steel Strikes ($19.49). Free shipping on orders over $25. https://www.entertainmentearth.com/s/pre-black-friday/s?query1=pre black friday&company=&theme=&producttype=&celebrity=&character=&landingpageid=5524&landingpageurl=pre-black-friday&lppreviewid=0&podcast=0&salesid=0&promotionid=0&selectedfacets=__Theme=LEGO&itemsperpage=60&page=1&filter=All&sort=bestsellers&productview=&advancedsearch=False&hideshop=True&alertid=

How many left turns and what’s the price of corn dogs at Sonic while we’re out and about?

3x Brickbank w/ free Skylander from TRU

his were cancelled.

Did anyone else notice the limits on some LEGO sets on AMZ are up to 27? Normally they limit 2 or 3 per week, but I spot checked about a dozen smaller/medium size sets and was surprised to see the limits that much higher.

The video description says 1580 pieces, so quite a bit smaller.

Seeing you took the time to guess I will grade you for your ones you put numbers on. City 9/16 Creator 2/2 Duplo 1/4 Friends 0/3 MC 0/1 Ninjago 0/1 SW 9/9 (some numbers were transposed but figured them out) 21/36 58% Been a long time since school but think 65 was passing...

Price of gas is cheaper when you can get Limeades during Happy Hour.

Immediate cashflow-wise: $145.70 from AMZ. Overall total value-wise: store purchase over the weekend, because you spent $170, got $15 back in VIP points and 3 promos which should bring you an easy $50-$75 in sale proceeds, bringing your total to ~$100 after tax.

I said that many times over, but purely based on the visual aesthetics, this is in my opinion one of the best looking modulars ever.. its sleek, elegant (combination of grey and white never fails).. kind of art deco architectural style.. compare this in 5 yrs against the latest Diner (totally unimaginative architectural style, although very memorable and "classy" for the US population".

same here. orders placed through ge have shipped while walmart orders spend a day or two in limbo before getting rejected. i am hitting this portal lightly for stuff i can't get from target who is taking everything i'm giving. i am wondering if this is a temporary holiday restriction to discourage qfll from hoarding up all the black friday deals as has been the custom for the last half decade lol to prevent mass hoarding of whatever creative brick tower is the black friday special this year. all you BTP who haven't been banned - go ahead and put back to back orders of some set in and get back to us if you got banned or if BTPness allowed you to transcend walmarts banning algo. ? this will just mean more hand to hand combat in store to obtain necessary stock levels.

Conversely, there are those that are selling on a smaller scale to fund their personal collecting. In that case, the extra time taken to sell ten £20 sets vs one £200 set is a serious consideration.

Ah, thanks for reminder. Please add @TabbyBoy to my confirmed 'Retiring Soon' list.

Guilty. I’m not approaching steam roller numbers, but I have double digits. Why wouldn’t I? It’s a big a** freaking bank! It looks awesome in any city lay out. Any collector would be silly not to have it.

no no

Or already putting it into the context of future (non-)gains, this set will soon be known as: "Women of nada"

Bringing it home!

That doesn't sound like a Deal.

Okay, Duplo Fig WyldStyle and Emmit are extremely adorable. I usually think Duplo figs are rather ugly. https://brickset.com/sets/10895-1/Emmet-and-Lucy-s-Visitors-from-the-DUPLO-Planet

Talking about price of gas ... 4x Fuel points at Kroger. Sort of back on topic

And we all know that the average BPer's hourly rate is a three digit figure.....

Scooped one at $170 off Amazon for my personal build. First Lego purchase of 2018. We have all the modulars going back to Market Street so didn't want to pay any more for this one than we had to. Not totally convinced it is going but why not I have to get them all. Cancelled and rebought at 145.70. Cheers Amazon.

I've managed to get some orders through WM by going through Google Express. Only lets me order 10 at a time, but it's better than nothing Sent from my SM-G965U using Brickpicker Forum mobile app

Technic Power Functions Motor set 8293 just $16.99 at AZ. (43% off.) To me, this is a killer price. I bought 7 when they were $19.99. https://www.amazon.com/LEGO-Technic-Power-Functions-Motor/dp/B01E78WLCU%3FSubscriptionId%3DAKIAJQSYTIGRBKVM26KQ%26%26linkCode%3Dxm2%26camp%3D2025%26creative%3D165953%26creativeASIN%3DB01E78WLCU

I need a big yes for T1 or today will have been very depressing.

Samsung Pay has Walmart cashback at 30% for toys. Limit $100 reward per purchase, so the only limit is your imagination. And the WM order cancellation hammer. And you're screwed if you have an iPhone.

Elves The Goblin King's Evil DRAGON 41183 - $16.99 (43% 0ff) https://www.amazon.com/LEGO-Goblin-DRAGON-Building-Pieces/dp/B01MRI21QA/ref=sr_1_1?s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1542653901&sr=1-1&keywords=lego+41183

I'm probably wrong, but doesnt this seem like more sets than usual? Havent seen many leaks on 2019 sets, but seems like they are finally starting to scale back total number of available sets.

I noticed several new rollbacks $7.49 - LEGO® Seasonal Christmas Train Ride 40262 $7.99 - LEGO BrickHeadz Boba Fett 41629 $16.99 - LEGO Star Wars TM Yoda's Jedi Starfighter 75168 $16.99 - LEGO Technic Power Functions Motor Set 8293 $34.99 - LEGO Ninjago Green Ninja Mech Dragon 70612 $43.99 - LEGO Friends Sunshine Catamaran 41317

Still a cool set that I thought would never be made. It's the little things...

Excuse me? I do the pessimism around here.

My tidbit of advice to try, for future reference: If the $99 qualifying item is on Backorder, add one other cheap item in stock (keychain, minifigure pack, etc) and that will most likely ship out sooner with the promos. I can't be 100% certain that still works, but I also placed a Great Hall backorder but added a few small items and those and promos are currently "in warehouse" status.

This pretty much sums up 7700+ posts well: Back in late Jan - "My predicton: LEGO: €1700 will turn into €2,008.11 Crypto: €1700 will turn into €39,958.47"
