My jaw was already on the floor.  Then you had to say Grand Carousel.

 

Yeah, I'd have paid $1200 for all this no problem!  Congrats!

PM me if you want to work some kind of trade for some of that train track

Totally looks like you robbed a storage unit there. Even if you paid for it - clearly robbery. lol.

Wow, makes my eyes water! Congrats!!!

can't decide which is better.... $148 for TB, $27 for MKII, or this lot...

This lot by far lol

Damn , I was gonna post the same thing word by word.

And congrats on an awesome find. And like alpine , I almost fainted when u added GC to the mix

Now use some of the profits to buy yourself a new TV, lol.

Wonder if all that is complete.

He's got so much equity built into that lot it doesn't really matter.

Pun intended?

Without a doubt, this lot is the best pickup I've seen in awhile.  At least, coming from someone that really enjoys picking up and sorting used lots.

The GC is, by far, my dream set.  This is the set that I remembered being "wow'd" by when I'd see it on display at Legoland California.  I was still in my Dark Ages.  I thought I'd never pay that much for a Lego set.  *sigh*

 

I love picking up bulk lots and sorting through for sets.  This would keep me buys for months.  It'd be tons of fun.

What a ridiculous find! Jealous I am.

hey i've had that TV for a long long time, it's got sentimental value, I've had it since I was in the Marines..... 15yrs ago

Super nice find! If you plan on selling the TB, feel free to PM me. I'm looking to pick up a used one to build.

Sweet Jesus. Usually when I find a big lot like this, the instructions are trashed or missing, and everything is in a giant, sticky pile. You scored.

This is clearly a candidate for Find of the year?

I can't believe someone who would have all of those sets wouldn't understand the value associated with the lot. Crazy.

her original asking price was $3500, my powers of persuasion and bargaining got the final total down to $1220

Amazing collection... congrats on good score!

Looks like you got a whole city ...

Now that is truly some jedi master haggling skills!

 

I'm curious to know how long she had it listed for. Were you the first one to meet her?

Thank you for your service and thank you for sharing this haul.

Was this lot in the DC/Metro area? My GF met someone at the Tyson's lego store over the weekend who had just acquired a large lot with some of the same items included.

I was going to post a Craigslist find for $170 which included Palace Cinema, Arkham Asylum (the new one), 7965 Falcon, Craggers Command Ship along with every Superheroes set from the last two years including Batcave, Batwing, Helicarrier breakout, Quinjet, Wolverine Chopper, Funhouse, Two face chase, etc but your CL lot beat me by a mile.  Mine were all mixed together in two big boxes but after many nights, I have completed everything except for Arkham Asylum, surprising, they were all 99.5% complete so far. It included all the minifigures which I why I pulled the trigger in the first place since I did not know if everything was complete.  Good job.
