I think you missed something on the box:

Preparing for the 50% off clearance Apparel and Toys at Meijer starting tomorrow, 1/26.

Picked up a couple things yesterday. I think everything was talked about and shown via other threads. Only thing I didn't mention yesterday was the Sea Cow. Don't own any LM sets but I saw it on offerup and decided to buy it. Got it for 220 Sealed. Noticed used ones going for 300 so I figured it was a good price!

If you browse around some of the top results, you'll find they're frequently sellers who have a surprisingly lean "item specifics". There's dozens variables that drive search results - not all of them are known, and certainly the algorithm eBay applies to weight those variables is a mystery. I've spent over a year trying to map it out, but it changes too consistently to make any meaningful progress. The one thing we do know is Title, Description (html headers in particular), click-through rates, and sales conversion rates are primary drivers for search rankings. Click-through & Sales conversion rates apply at both the listing and seller levels (i.e., if you've got a poor rate, that would be held against a new individual listing you post). Item Specifics are factored as well, but it appears to be a bit indirect - useful for shopping searching by category to find the item, but potentially held against you in generic searches. The quantity, price, & format (duration, shipping/return policy, etc) of a listing are factored as well - typically when "all other things being relatively equal". I could go on for several paragraphs - but frankly it's all prone to eBay system changes. The simplest key to driving your listings higher in search results: 1. Manage Impressions (Views) - Use Title keywords that would correlate strongly to people searching for your item, but not to unrelated searches. Lots of impressions but low click-through/sales (people scrolling right past your listing in searches it does pop up in) buries you. 2. Drive Click-Through with appealing photos & prices - this leads people to at least take a closer look at your item. 3. Drive Sales Conversion Rates with overall listing quality & competitive prices - you want to be converting around 5-10% of those click throughs into sales. If you do those 3 things well, all the rest becomes an afterthought. Not surprisingly, eBay priorities search results based on listings & sellers most likely to result in sales - and it's far easiest for them to predict that based on #1-3.

Yesterday I received the educational set 2000451 Panama Canal (buy-in 250E). Expensive set but I really like the design.

Built the City Rally Car 60013, Liked the shape and styling of the car, reminded me of some of the old B class cars from the 80s for some reason. Maybe it was the spot lights on the front or a wide body kit. Anyway, Loved the Built and not a bad price either at £6.

Hello to everybody! I am Federico from Italy... I have always been a super Lego Fan... In the last few years, after discovering in my parents' attic 114 vintage sets with boxes (even if all mixed up eheheh) I started hunting down ALL Castle and Classic Town sets in their (European) boxes (not MISB...so my collection can be defined as a Back in Box collection) for the period 1978-2000. I also collect the USA versions that have a different code (i.e. 588 vs 381) and US exclusives (575, 590 etc. etc.). I am not far from achieving the first goal (a full set of 1978-1988 castle and town sets) even if I am missing several value packs and some hard to find sets! I am very picky when I check the sets...I try, to the best of my knowledge, to complete them with the right bricks from the correct age (hollow torsos, full back pegs etc etc) I DEFINITELY LOVE VINTAGE LEGO SETS...They take me back to the old good times when I was a happy child! My favourite sets are 375/6075 1592 and 1589! Ciao FEDERICO

Finished up the last of our CL find...The SW Snowspeeder 75049. The two At-Ats are in trouble now that we have built their nemesis. Lol. Fun little build...but probably wouldn't be worth the $68 price these are going for on Amazon or the $50 price elsewhere.

I couldn't agree with you more, I'm still kicking myself for not buying AMZN 2-3 years ago when it was only $350 $375ish. The Telltale signs are all those major retailers closing stores across USA. Who wants to drive, park, and shop? I see malls turning into Quasi-amusement parks. Only entertainment, restaurants and specialty stores. I see Amazon warehouses every 5-10 miles like MickeyDs.

The only thing that can stop Amazon is going to be laws against monopolies. Nobody else is going to come close to being able to build a 3 hour nationwide fulfillment network with hundreds of millions of products in the catalog. Some things are here to stay - Google, Amazon, and Tom Brady.

Technically you are only responsible for shipping up to the distribution center. Although depending on the values of the sets and the feedback rating of the buyer, I'd be more concerned about the possibility of scam if I were you.

Business Price for those people who are wondering

Bummer I live so far south of the Meijer-Dixson line. ;-)

U ain't lying .. ok off to the right thread now .

The lowest FBA price for the Simpsons Dimensions pack is already down to $12.95. That's a $13.74 drop in only about three days. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00ZGDSELI/ref=olp_product_details?_encoding=UTF8&me=

If I were running TLG, I'd want to make both groups happy so I'd make it with a breakaway midsection so you can display a full ship or get some Kraken action.

Okay boys and girls I just bought my third tranche of raffle tickets (as I said I would do). So come on, lets get this raffle going or else you are going to have to tolerate my insufferable gloating when I win all of the prizes (those odds be amazing!). P

Got a Clone tank for $60 at wm. And a bunch of poly bags for $3

Yes, I have gotten all of the Nexo sets available at TRU for "Free" using my rewards. As @fossilrock said why don't you chill out on the negativity. Perhaps take a self imposed time out and build a lego set for fun. If you lived in the USA I would send you a Fortrex.

You are very generous. Regardless of whether you win or not, I would like to send you something when this is all done. Thanks again.

No. Items marked "Clearance" with the starting 5% discount. http://www.kmart.com/toys-games/b-20007?Brand=LEGO&filterList=Brand&sbf=Clearance

Most of us are Lego employees. Our main source of entertainment is reading these crackpot conspiracy theories about retiring sets, future releases and sales figures.

Genius plan, leaves more free space for the new sets too.

Another stop at 99Cent Only but they only had these... And got these from Wally... 1 x 41127 @ $2 and 2 x 71204 @ $4/ea

Wait, what? The AFOL in me understands your underlying sentiment, but you can't honestly blame LEGO for producing too many, and I quote "play sets that LEGO has an unhealthy love for." l like the big display sets as well, but they are indeed a TOY company. It's not a stretch to think some kids might get more enjoyment playing with their toys than starring at them in a display case. _________ Also, in reference to not seeing any sails on the box "art", I will leave you with this image of the Dying Gull snapped during the filming:

Nabbed about 80 Dimensions packs at the 99 cents store. Mostly homer level packs as that was the best value, but also a few Bart, Bad cop, and Chima ones. Using about 30 as my GWP for the following month and parting out and listing the others. Already sold 13 Homers for $6.98 and a few fun packs for $5.98 on BL, buyers paid shipping. Not bad, as that pretty much paid off the others. Best deal there however was the Odwalla bars, they were 2/$1

or

I hear the "Just Donate" option is not used much ......

Hopefully I know what's the next best thing so I can buy their stocks and do not have to stay in LEGO retail business

99c price Avail only in 4 states...i am selling in lots to my east coast customers and asian market...

i meant new arrivals to 99 cents store around me. which means we are going to get a whole lot of these craps.

Good thing we all know why...

Haha the only person that I like to mess with is our residential janitor. But you really don't have to send me anything man I was just playing around and don't expect anything. I can still pm you if you want but I don't want you thinking that I'm looking for handouts. Either way thanks for offering to do that!

Mark Hamill recently said on Nerdist Podcast that he read plenty of the fake info and scripts before TFA, but he also read the complete and accurate one on the internet as well. Disney monitors all of this, but takes no action because that would immediately tip off what was the real information. So the real script may be out there, but it won't be confirmed until people actually see the movie.

Beetle poly is definitely a box ...
