I don't own a cat because they are the spawn of Satan. It has nothing to do with my investments.

I've had this problem, only with cats.  They're even less appreciative of MISB lego exclusives than your sister's boyfriend.  Imagine finding that a "fixed" but nonetheless territorial male feline has "autographed" a stack of MISB Sandcrawlers...

If you named your cat Harrison, that could be a good thing!

Sadly, no.  However, given the target of his attentions, "Utinni!" might have been more appropriate.  I've always wanted a pet Jawa.

I never thought R2 was as big of a seller as it should have been (until the retirement dance that is).  And I think that had a lot to do with it's price point.  If Lego were to release an 'Ideas' sized R2 set (600 or so pieces, $60 price point) it would sell like crazy.

R2 Ideas set is likely never to happen. Ideas sets are for unique builds, builds that stand alone. R2 is In his own class and has been made a few times before via Technic, UCS and tons of minifigs.

Finally, my R2 shelf is complete. Thx for everyone's contribution. I think I'm going to start another row of these. These will not be on the market again for a minimum of 4 years. 

Impressive!

we need a UCS C3P0

You are joking, right!?

Is it bad that I bought this mostly because it put visions of what I'll sell my R2s for this Christmas?

This is going to crush the value of 10225.  Much cheaper, and you get free synthetic creamer as a bonus!

You are developing to become a rev. warning about black clouds coming and constantly bringing bad news on this forum. Maybe you should start your own tv channel? 

That's because he doesn't have any R2D2s ready to be sold for 3x this Christmas and 4x the following Christmas.

If it´s not remade by then!

Whoever snapped that one got a really good deal there - shows miracles are still possible.

And they say box conditions don't matter.  even the seller don't want it.
That one would be consider open box and not Nuevo in my book. Though the seller did state that.

Honest seller, honest price. Anyone who missed out and wants one to build will be stoked.

no way this will be remade.

...and that is why one should use BIN...

Never say never and it was a BIN it seems. Until recently new ones mint were only at 250 euros so it´s a fair price.

I think it was a steal at that price as this would be equivalent of brand new without a box!

Selling at £275 ebay uk. We need a nice new TFA trailer with some more airtime for the little guy to push that price up. 

Are people looking to sell this holiday season or holding ?

Hold......

Stay on Target..... Stay on Target !!!

Let the other impatient ones sell... then it will become like a snowball running down the hill. Resulting in ever growing value.
