Batman

What sets do you currently have?

I see. Thank you for your help. I ended up picking up the Grand Emporium, r2-d2, and tower bridge. Does this mean I am now officially a lego investor? Lol

Thank you for the advice Noodlenut. I have a few large sets I'm looking at investing in long term. Which ones would be best? Tower bridge, haunted house, r2-d2, ewok village? I'm at a store right now lol Also I just learned how to quote. I'm new to the whole forum thing

That's awesome. I really appreciate the help jeff_14. So how is it that you handle your smaller sets? Do you part them out or just wait then flip the entire set?.. I'm embarrassed to ask but what does part out actually mean. Is that selling it brick by brick? And is there a guide on how to part out sets? As you can see I'm very new to this industry and I will be searching the site/forum for info, I just figured since you are helping me now I would ask a few simple questions lol.

Also would the spiderman daily bugle showdown be a good set to invest in for either short term or long term?

Thank you everyone for the warm welcome! And I appreciate the advice jeff_14. I definitely have time to put into my new found hobby/business. I would like to explore opportunities in short term and long term investing. The main themes I'm looking at (for short term investing) is the super heroes series and maybe star wars as well. I was wondering what would be the best approach for handling these smaller sets. Should I separate the minifigures and sell the set without them and sell the figures separately?

Hello! Just wanted to introduce myself. I am 22 years old out of Toronto, Canada. I have recently rekindled my childhood love for lego and new to the secondary Lego market. I plan to go to school in September for a business degree and I figured this would be a good way to help pay for school, get some entrepreneurial experience, and it would be a fun hobby as well. I stumbled upon this: http://www.ehow.com/how_5141645_make-money-selling-legos.html I've decided I am going to try and emulate what this guy was able to do. So any guidance anyone has on how I would be able to accomplish this would be greatly appreciated!
