Your wife cool with that?

75192 UCS Falcon for $700 cash. $197 profit + $24 in Amazon Rewards points, not bad for a 2 hour hold after it was delivered this morning.

Architecture LEGO Architecture Great Wall of China Building Kit (551 Piece), ... $29.99 [40% off] Dropped 25% on Dec 3 3:00 PM

To add a little balance to the testimonials, I can highly recommend Ravenb99 as someone to do business with for anyone who is looking to sell out a large collection. He and I have done deals together and competed for the same deals, and he is as trustworthy, dependable, and honest as they come. He's one of the handful of folks here that I'm aware of here who can close very large deals with upfront cash without breaking a sweat.

Wife just sent a picture of the front porch and huge stack of boxes asking wth?....lol..... think I'm in trouble.

this turned into the WET testimonials thread...

Investors, I don't often chime in on here anymore to give my two cents (think it's been since like 2014) but one of the things Ed just said is super important and not factored in enough by your average collector/investor. Lego sets don't always appreciate. There is a sweet spot to sell, Ed and several other vendors we've worked with have missed that sweet spot on some of their items in their collections/while also allowing condition to slowly worsen on older items. It is very very hard to properly maintain and store items for 5-10+ years and keep them in decent condition. Seals are not meant to last forever, especially on larger sets with 25+ pounds of weight pressure on them. Watch how you stack things, even on shelves. Never palletize for long periods of time. Don't sit on vintage Star Wars sets for 20 years. also what are you talking about Ed, no one flips that fast

If you have any money left and missed the Apocalypseburg on sale, it is Amazon's turn at $219.99. Make sure to choose ship in an Amazon box for the frustration free option. THE LEGO MOVIE 2 Welcome to Apocalypseburg! 70840 Building Kit, New 2019 (3178 Pieces)

Problem now is I spent all my money this weekend

Legend says that after humans annihilate themselves with nuclear fallout... only the 10220 Camper Van will survive... and of course roaches to drive it.

You can get the (somewhat blurry) instructions for the windmill here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1fGwgDTtjHptf92N29V3MtCLKWXz_dJRH/view

75956 is a Target exclusive and currently 20% off (22% off incl. Red Card savings).

Maybe the second box was a "We know you ordered more than the limit but we also like your money" type of thing.

Nuff said https://nypost.com/2019/11/29/baby-yoda-is-trending-higher-than-most-2020-democratic-hopefuls/

Take care man...Your posts help a lot on this site. So thanks

The kiosk in front of my local Lego store was selling bootleg Dino's.

I think people under estimate how well this is going to do. There were a billion of these made but the demand for this set is equally as great. We may think 50, 100, 400 of this set is a lot but they are selling 1000's of these a day.

Yeah. I was going to be a prize for the LEGO raffle this year.

Its a LIBRARY !

The store calendar (with GWP info) is generally available online at the beginning of each month: https://www.lego.com/en-us/stores

Saw a couple of 50% off Arctic Base at my favorite Target today and could not resist

I think of a different movie.

There is an additional homage in Lady Libertys head

Every-time i see this set, I just think of Planet of the Apes

In addition to the consignment option, there are a number of folks on here who buy large lots outright. I've done four sizeable deals over the last year and know of at least five or six others that other people here have done.

I have worked with a large online reseller and have had success selling off thousands of sets on a consignment basis. If you interested, please feel free to contact me and I will let you know the specifics.

A quick flip is selling something right after you acquire it, usually due to low supply and high demand. This can happen at the holidays when things go out of stock. It used to happen more often at releases, but Lego has been doing better about providing adequate supply or demand has been lower.

Let's hope this set & TB will not have any successors in terms of biggest disappointments ever.

"...they are selling 1000's of these a day." -> ...but maybe to the wrong people which is why some folks have their doubts about this set.

Interesting little piece of information from a reliable source at my local Lego store....the Friends Ideas set has officially taken over the top spot for the fastest selling Lego set to date. It dethroned the Saturn V to hold this prestigious title.....

Looks like everything that Amazon sold out of for Cyber Monday is magically back in stock today -- most back to full retail, including Parisian Restaurant and Voltron. But Betrayal at Cloud City is back for the low, low, price of $479.99 ($349 retail). And yes it is sold and shipped from Amazon.com. Makes you wonder what else they might find in the back of the warehouse when everybody else is sold out and prices are high...

PM paper ad from WMT will work, ordered from TGT

Last stop. The train has pulled into the station.

Creator Expert Beetle - $74.99 (25% off) https://www.walmart.com/ip/LEGO-Creator-Expert-Volkswagen-Beetle-10252/55126190

good to know, thanks.

I heard it was going to be an Amazon warehouse... yup. that's the word on the street.

Wrong person has a Name Tron too.

In your order, just add a small item (key chain / CMF) and the GWP should ship before the main item ... that has been my experience.

Dec 6-24, mini Ginger Bread House with $99+ purchase, while supplies last Dec 6-, Obi-Wan mini figure with Start Wars purchase of $40+, while supplies last

With a large purchase like that, I would suggest putting those into a sortable spreadsheet. Buyers need to be able to figure out what they are getting. I had a great experience with my semi-large sale, but I also had tempered expectations of what to expect with returns. As an off-hand guess, I would take about 60% of Brickfolio value and start from there if looking to unload in one bulk purchase.

I was in nearly your exact shoes six months ago. I considered all of these options, feel free to PM me if you want to hear my experiences.

I thought the tactic for baiting the walker made sense, but I also agree it should have been blasting everything in the mean time, although I'm not sure if ammo is unlimited. It really doesn't have to make complete sense though we're in space with a little green alien. Gina Carano is listed in chapters 7 & 8 on IMDB so we should see her again assuming that is correct.

It will let me list the item (this is the one with only 1 seller-Amazon). No block or gate. I would assume it is just blocked in your inventory when live.

its star wars. run as far as you can..

Lol I did not get it either. Also, the way woman soldier bait the AT-ST did not make sense to me. If you have someone shooting your AT-ST from up close like that, wouldn't you step BACK (not forward) to get a better shooting angle?

Sold a Nexo Knights 70323 Jestro's Volcano Lair for $229. Buy-in was $2 at Barnes and Noble.

Woodinville Costco got the Voltron set today for $114.99, I would assume other warehouses in the area will have it too. Item number is 2131312.
