I think this should be recognized as a form of domestic terrorism.

Guess it's a ymmv situation just picked 3 up a hour ago for 44.79 each
-
I believe they're still scanning at 44.79

Amazon price matched
-
I don't have the Amazon Amex just a regular platinum, not sure if it's specific to that type of Amex card. Offer popped up right below where the 20% coupon was on the product page. I had to enable it/opt in and the max discount that could be applied was $60. Could be used in one transaction or spread across multiple.

Amazon deal: LEGO Disney Wish: Asha’s Cottage 43231 is over 60% off when you apply the 20% off coupon at checkout. If you have amex points to use its another 40% off. Total was $9.76 per unit.

There were a couple target 40% off sets that poofed in my cart, ended up getting a few more trench runs atleast.
-
Walmart cyber deals still has Ironman armory 76216 50% off, Amazon matched it. Terrible ppp but 8 minifigures and it's ironman...

I got no problem with amazon banning sellers who are flipping masks while medical professionals desperately need them. They got what they deserved.
-
I understand your frustration but I don't think it'll work. Brower games, DC deals, toyplanet, dboytoys, douse, etc there's a bunch of sellers who have so many listings they likely won't even notice a couple listings tanking in price.

Good luck, there's about a dozen lego resellers who will penny cut you to death. When they go to war on a listing the price drops fast. I use Amazon's repricer and it's not bad. You can set it to match the buy box/lowest fba which I use most of the time. You can also have it price your product a certain amount above the buy box which I'll do often against the known penny cutters. They usually dont have much for stock so you just wait them out.

The bots are out of control. I had 4 Lego listings get hit this week, one of them (Crater Creeper) became unsellable because the bot thought something with the name Creeper in it must be related to pesticides. Atleast that one they fixed after opening a case. The other 3 listings they just removed, I sent receipts from Lego.com (only place you could buy them) to try and reinstate 2 of them but the receipts are old and they want proof of purchase that was issued in the last year. Pretty hard to do on stuff that's been discontinued for 3+ years. The 4th listing got taken down just yesterday Nexo Knights Stone Monsters Accessory set 853677 and I'm not even going to try fighting it, there were only a half dozen or so sellers so It'll probably just disappear from Amazon forevermore. It was only released in 2017 it's the first relatively new set that I've had problems with, perhaps a prelude to the fun that awaits in 2020.

Nether Fortress was the only real dud. -
It's been asked quite a few times already (once by me I think), you might be able to find more answers a few pages back. The consensus seems to be that people have done it but if a customer thinks its a counterfeit product because the packaging doesn't match the images in the listing you may get hit with a suspension/account review.

I think the bots must have taken down a few listings. I had some Lego friends carry cases (bought from lego.com) and the listing got removed a couple days ago, was selling on it for a couple years.

Is there a chance they'll just bring back Lady liberty each summer around Independence day? I don't know if there are any "4th of July" seasonal sets but maybe this fits. -
PETER TINGLE ALERT Too good to be true usually is.

Ending the message by wishing you a magical day after taking away the 40%? Disney is ice cold.

What Lego set did you buy today?
isocleas replied to Damnation666's topic in General Buying & Selling
Return rate is pretty high on sets like these too. Grandma gets Timmy a 300 dollar set, she expects a big box and instead get this little thing (which falls apart easy). Return. Or you get a collector who expects a mint box...I still take the gamble but often enough i just get back a beat box (maybe used) to sell on ebay for a loss. $130 cheapest U.S. seller if you want a proper NA version (which matches the listing) + shipping btw -

It has begun... 71040 disney castle too obvious? -
I decided I'm going to start boxing some of my higher value small sets before sending them in to amazon fba, had too many crushed returns due to amazon being lazy with mailing them in envelopes. I ordered: 14x8x4 10x8x3 8x6x3 5x4x3 If anyone can think of a common small size I missed please let me know. Also I think the 8x6x3's from amazon are a pretty good deal right now at $8.75 for 25ct, free prime shipping for those who are interested: https://www.amazon.com/Partners-Brand-P863-Corrugated-Boxes/dp/B01EN0WC5S/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=Partners+Brand+P863+Flat+Corrugated+Boxes%2C+8"L+x+6"W+x+3"H%2C+Kraft+(Pack+of+25)&qid=1566023594&s=gateway&sr=8-1

Which version of sets do Canadians get, the U.S. version produced in Mexico I would assume. Or do they get the euro version? I'm trying to expand my purchases beyond the U.S, but I'm not sure which countries to look at.
