Cracked open a 10228 - Haunted House to build with my daughter.

Taking in Mother Nature and doing some hiking with the family.

Bought this to build and to see how I liked it as a display piece, and now that its built its a hard set to imagine parting ways with. Really captures the feel of Mos Eisley! Also its a little bigger than I expected and a tad crammed on my shelf, but it works! Unfortunately I cannot open the cantina due to lack of space 😅

Local buy for $250. Tree House, Porsche 911, Poe X-Wing, Vonreg Tie, and a ton of speed champions

Finished my birthday present today.

One thing to realize is that those of us who are in a position to help are in that position because of the time we've put into this and the longevity of our efforts. I certainly had help along the way (I'm still hugely indebted to LegoFanTexas for one key piece of advice he gave years ago and Raven for...well...a bunch of stuff), but no one served everything up to me or anyone that I know on a platter. I'm happy to provide help, but it's unrealistic to expect me or Donbee or anyone else to spell out the specifics on what they're doing and how they're doing it. Besides, there is a certain "

Respectfully, this isn't the point of Brickpicker. We're here to "pick" aka buy low and sell high. We're not here to advocate on behalf of all upset customers to make sure everyone gets whatever they want at MSRP. We want upset customers to buy the Frigate from us for 250 dollars after we bought it for 40. When you do things like this, you risk lowering the resale value of this set (although I suspect that this rep is like a lot of other ones and doesn't know what he's talking about).

What monster over at Lego allowed this set to be number #21324? IT SHOULD BE 21234!!! This explains why the Count isn't in the set, he probably stormed off!

Let’s get back to the deals, and we can move this discussion....somewhere else please.

the post did not suggest any sort of advocation...it was informative...let's not cast stones at the messenger (they are this forums most valuable assets)

You just triggered my PTSD (Post Traumatic Steamroller Disorder) by posting that. 😂

LEGO Dimensions Slimer Fun Pack FBM - $90

New GWP floating around the Insta. The Monster Book that has wheels underneath making it bite as you roll it. Not my picture attached.

Here is a starting handful of "super heavy investment in parts" starcrusiers for your perusal from this year's SHIPtember building event with more to be posted in due time. Apologies for not uploading last year's designs. After this I will go back and sort that out.

Fair enough, and I mean no offense, but auctionbrokers you said that "apparently Lego has taken a lot of heat from this." Some of that heat was you calling them at least three times to talk about the situation. If nobody ever did that, they wouldn't worry about Amazon and trying to cancel orders that some of us made. This is kindof a theme over the years here. Some resellers can't help themselves, they repeatedly call Lego support or their local store to address their concerns about stock or orders when the better thing is to place your orders and not be real obvious or vocal about it. Do

BrandSmartUSA sent each lot of 5 Bespin Duels in the Lego shipping carton, in another box full of padding.

Always figured yours would be more like this...

Here I was agreeing with you till you said three reps?? Thank you very much for the info as information is a good as gold around here but.......... You talked to three different reps about this or you were reading on different forums and three other users wrote the same info? because if you called three different times to talk about this then sorry you are the issue.

Contacted a Lego rep to get an update on the Frigate set. I spoke to John and he said that their team that works with Amazon are looking into this matter to find out what happened and to have it rectified. He said the last thing that Lego wants are upset customers who are not able to purchase particular sets because of resellers. I guess Lego has taken a lot of heat about this. John also said that according to his information, the set was not being sold exclusively by Amazon and that it would be available online at Lego Shop and other locations by the beginning of November. He did confirm

Much to my surprise, I also got one!

I sorted through a bunch of political ads in the mail and found this beauty!!

I ACTUALLY GOT ONE TODAY IN THE MAIL!!!

Received my 2 Shanghai sets from WM today I bought on 10/15 for $42.97 each. They sent 2 LEGO shipping boxes w/ 3 sets in each box. Not going to complain. I like sets that cost $15.50 each.

I actually won a supergirl

Don't ever pass up an opportunity to buy Fabuland.

Buy Steamrollers, Exo Suits and Fire bikes

seems like a recurring theme

these were available for shop at home for more than 3 months at $7.50 during double vip + promos. i bought way too many. after 3 years, i have sold 8 at $24.99. now the price is down to $19.99 and only heading lower now, these are crazy slow sellers on amazon. even worse than the LEGO VIP promo.lol. i lost more money on fba storage and then return fees than i ever made on these the 1 time i was stupid enough to send these in to FBA. IPI wrecker. i donated 12 last year and have way too many sitting on a shelf to flood the market the second they make it back to $24.99. good luck with th

Feeling a little guilty. Bought some sets from a Military Exchange. They came in just a polybag and both came damaged. One worse than the other. Nothing super bad. Just one with a huge crushed corner and the other with a dented one. I inquired what would be my options via live chat. The customer service rep just immediately gave me a full refund. I replied that a full refund was not necessary, as a partial refund would be adequate. She said that it was already put in the system. So now I got both sets for free. I haven't complained about box condition in a long time, in fact most of

so, are we betting that Lego didn't make enough of these for the holiday season, or stocking the shelves for the long haul? So far this year I have bought all the sets that they made plenty of, and none of the sets that they didn't. I am a bit nervous that if I buy my max of 3, it will screw all of you out of a QF because I am cursed.

this forum is a "den of thieves"...and as much as we think there's some sort of "Pirate's Code"...every one of us here are competing w/ everyone else. I'm on here daily and actually enjoy the "community"...but I harbor no disillusion that anyone here wouldn't trample me on a bee-line for a 30% sale...I would only hope that the train of shopping carts would not roll over me as well

I'm not advocating for upset buyers, I am trying to warn resellers concerning the status of this set so they know what may be coming down the pike. As a reseller myself, I know I would want to be aware of this. Also, this was confirmed by three separate reps so I believe that the information is solid. No worries though, next time I will keep it to myself.

Hmm, possible future CMF series? Just like The Simpsons before, why make new molds just to be used for 1 set?

Yeah, I don't understand their thought process here. Reduce size of set to make it more palatable as a toy for kids purchase, but then slap 18+ on the box? Really think they should have gone full-on modular.

Really missing Grover and The Count

Winner, winner. Chicken dinner. The 18+ thing aside, this price tag is worth it just for the minifigures alone (assuming they're not released in some other form/set down the road). Would love to see a GWP of The Count minifigure at release.

Sanctum Sanctorum by Felix Greco

I was happy to find out I received one today in the mail! Sadly, I won't be getting Miles as I don't play videogames, but quite happy getting supergirl!

Saw this in my local Craigslist and couldn't help but think of you. It's actually not a bad price for open with sealed bags, but yeah, I'll pass. 😄

Saw IN person a pallet of Technic Land Rover for $165 at my local Costco. YMMV I know that's more than IWOOT/ZAVVI...but less rolling of dice

For just a penny a piece, this "perfectional Lego builder" will put your sets together for you.

From Target... a few Claus Brickheadz arrived individually wrapped in Target polybags and the rest were shrink-wrapped!?

So, let me get this straight. You are arguing that a company that innovates, employs probably tens of thousands and has worked hard for nearly 80 years is to be chastised because some of their product is marketed at a higher end price range? That opportunistic resellers (of which I am proudly one) are somehow more virtuous or less worthy of scorn than the company that makes what they do even possible? Really? That's the line you're going with? There are in fact some things that don't need to be said.

10227 $500 shipped ... eBay

Some chinese site says it is set 30628 which is a GWP for purchases above 1399rmb. There was a scene of Draco stroking the monster book of monsters, I would have preferred Neville as well. It's a limited edition of 7900 sets. 😄 Pics up on stone wars as well. https://www.stonewars.de/news/lego-harry-potter-30628-monster-book-of-monsters/
