received my 227th-235th egift cards this morning since they started having these gc deals at the beginning of october all on the same account i've had for 10 years. november 22 was the best day - got 22 gc that day alone.

79

They did the same to me. Letter in the mail increasing my credit limit! My first thought was "who the hell spends this much at Target each month!?"...but then I looked in the mirror.... Sent from my SM-G950U using Brickpicker Forum mobile app

Sainsbury's deal of the day..

Well, here's my haul for playing along with this Black VIP Card game: Black VIP card Scarif minifig: free in-store give away when I purchased the MF Y-Wing print: email code DJ minifig: email code Card Holder: email code Mudtrooper: added free by CS rep because Card Holder wasn't showing in shipping confirmation online code error Thankfully I was an early buyer, early builder, and early seller so I got all my money back from the original purchase. All in all, I came out ahead in all this...but I think Lego could have done better. Even something like the Space Slug or Comic Con Solo movie MF cockpit would have really made the program special.

Lego Ideology: RRP $10 BrickHeadz = Printed Pieces RRP $400 Hogwarts Castle = Stickers

Lego 10210 Imperial Flagship (new in open box) for $615 shipped, with 15% off coupon and 8% ebay bucks, brought it down to a net of $523.

I flipped a couple too. There was a nice immediate profit on those. I sold out a few weeks ago ... and then my son, who doesn't bother with LEGO much anymore, asked for a LEGO Fire Station for Christmas. GMAFB

Some of these Nexo sets look like different parts of a giant mecha. This would be 1 of the feet. LEGO should have made these sets with optional builds to combine them into 1 huge mecha ala Devastator or Megazord or Voltron

heads up eBay Site-wide coupon 10% Electronics, 15% other categories on Sunday 12/16

Amazon PM'd w/ limit of 27 https://www.amazon.com/LEGO-BrickHeadz-41627-Building-Multicolor/dp/B07D4BHYJ6/ref=sr_1_1?s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1544729527&sr=1-1&keywords=lego+41627

BH need to be designed so a mini-figure can be placed inside (maybe even clear plates on the bottom so it can be seen...right now that cavity is just novelty complexity with no purpose...basically there should a reason to touch a BH build again otherwise it sits on the shelf as a dust collector

I think the microworlds were awesome when there was no Minecraft theme. But once the minifig-sized Minecraft sets came out, the microworlds suddenly didn't seem so great anymore. That would explain the drop in interest and resale prices.

This set brought me out of my dark ages! To make you feel better maybe, I paid full RRP AND shipping from Shop at Home. No free shipping then! Edit: $121.48 with tax and shipping. December 2010. Edit edit: I also bought it without any gifts with purchase.

circle of QFLL life.

First time paying over RRP for a retired set. Picked up 10193 Medieval Market Village NISB for $160 shipped off of EBay. Set has been on my list ever since I came back out of my Dark Ages. The 15% off coupon helped sweeten the deal, and so did the $15+ in EBay Bucks I earned (and since EBay bucks are calculated BEFORE coupons are applied, it worked out to almost 10% EBay bucks instead of the 8% offered in the promo).

I find that stale bread rolls work great to cushion shipments. Don't tell me I'm the only one.

I thought the same thing. If I ordered something from Amazon and it came with grocery bags as packing, my first inclination would be it's a terribly run business. Then, if there was some thing wrong with the product, it would make me more upset. I'm a piddly Ebay seller and think grocery bags are meant for the trash, not for re-selling.

I sold over 40 Fire Stations over the last few days @ $110 and remaining 10 @ $120 , both with $24.97 shipping. I didn't know they were going to be so hot. Bought all of them for $50+tax at Walmarts few months back. Sold last one today for $130 + shipping

ordering from WM has been like playing roulette lately ; sometimes you win sometimes they cancel.

they banned all business accounts and corresponding household ones a while back

They’ll disappear at 10% off day after Christmas here in SoCal.

Check your emails from Staples. Mine had a 15% off shipping supplies coupon, good through 12/29. (Not sure if the code is unique, or not.)

Just got a fresh shipment at Dollar General.

We have another thread for the last 3 pages.

That list reads like a load of sets many here wish they had never bought ?

Me like

Bhz have been 12 month or less release since they started, all of last years ended 2017 and all of this years end 2018. Sure you will have some hangovers like Finn even after the retired tag, yet they never officially gave Phasma the tag. Pretty much like what mixels were, out for a few months, retired, then see hanging around. Plenty of characters to make and can make variations of mickey and minnie if they want too so no need to really keep around for a long time anyways.

lol its ended up that way... been pretty active during good eBay bucks promos though. 15% off coupon on top is great though, how often does that happen! In the last 2 months though, I've picked up Imperial Shuttle 10212 and Vader TIE 10175 this way. all in new open box. of course, your set is the best ? need to find somebody who has an open box 10179 for cheap for the next halo set ?

A lot of people got DO around $120 last month. That buy in is a little high for my taste. On topic - Hogwarts Express in stock at target $65 plus card

Yoda/Luke Brickheadz set is $9.99 at Walmart.com

I love that line and it seems very underappreciated/undervalued.

not a fan of grocery bags as filling in any situation quite honestly. just doesn't look professional not to mention sanitary?

I will use plastic grocery bags for Ebay orders, but I would not recommend doing that for Amazon orders regardless of whether this dude scammed you or not. I have always tried to make Amazon orders look very professional and use brand new boxes and packing paper or air pillows in the order.

FedEx and UPS are always going at it so if you are comparing retail rates they should not be that different. USPS to FedEx/UPS is not really a fair comparison so I'd expect some discrepancy there. I would definitely open up a business account. Some business credit cards offer some type of discounted rate offer (Amex, I think?), and those credit cards sometimes offer double or triple miles if miles is your thing.

It takes you 30 mins to pack each package, really? I take it this is your packing style

Or count out 5000+ pcs. You want to cannonball down here and do it for me? Dunn dun DU-UH-UHNNNN! I'll likely offer it up as is with most bags still sealed. I think it's worth more like that than built once.

Picked up The Tumbler 76023 complete with manuals (no box) for $75...local Facebook Marketplace.

Got my two Clsssic Batcaves from Blinq. One arrived perfect the other not so much. Standing up the set in the box though? Geez. I’m probably going to personal build both of these. But still.

$47.82 @ Amazon on 11/2 - 11/9

Ordered the Star Wars Last Jedi Resistance Bomber 75188 from Target (a 780 piece set) and they shipped it in a plastic bag. It's not smashed but every corner is dented and there's a small hole in the front. First time Target didn't ship boxed to me. Off to local Target to pick up a decent one off shelf and exchange it.

heads up walmart sends out $10 off $35 store pick up coupon to registered account. Not sure what's the pattern, but I do receive one in a newly registered account. The other recently established account received nothing.

Get your mickey and Minnie while you can

So you're out now, as in everything is sold? [emoji2]

Emazers is the only confirmed retirement so far this season.

Didn't see the tiny little typing above the GIGANTIC receipt picture.

It’s the “pick one up off the shelf, take it to the register, and pay for it” promo. It’s on SALE. In store. All brickheadz are 20% off. What am I missing here?

/S Here in Djibouti, the Saturn V is already retired. But we do connect to the internet by sticking a Ethernet cable up a Cheetah's butt... so things may move faster here. /S
