This is a set I have been waiting for personally. I love this set. I can tell you that I have ordered two already. One for putting away and one for putting in my foyer for Halloween. This set is an instant classic.

Haunted House 10228 for $179.99

Haunted house for sure.

Who do you think you are, darin?

 

Who will win the race to $500 in the aftermarket, Haunted House or Town Hall?

 

My gut says HH.  But if TH is gone, lots of people will be caught with their pants down. Conventional wisdom was that as long as you had GE you were good for the year.

He's been on the site for some time. He bought into some $600 SSDs after they disappeared.

I've just collected my 10x HHs from my and my girlfriend's respective workplaces.  I'm pleased to say that 8 are in pairs in 4x factory outer boxes and 2 separate with seal codes 38S4 - well, it was 5 to each office.  I'll also sell these in pairs since there's no packing to do!

Nice score Tabby-

I have just 3.  And I hate to do it, but I'm pretty sure we're going to tear into one of them tonight. I mean, that was always the plan - to have one for ourselves - but looking at prices now (and imagining where they may go)... it's going to be hard to crack those seals.  I've been preparing my six-year-old all week: telling him that this will be not his Lego, but our family's Lego.  That we're going to set it up for Halloween, then take it down after the holiday - just like a Christmas tree.  You will not take the minifigures to your room.  You will not swap their heads with your stormtroopers or Darth Vader... jeez... I feel like the dad in the Lego movie. But I gotta lay down some law.

For anyone that hasn't hit their 2/wk limit, keep an eye on Amazon today, looks like the HH carousel is back on.

What's wrong with zombie stormtroopers?  You could always go out and get a used copy if you don't want to open your sealed boxes.

Can't you just buy a used one?

 

Been looking but haven't seen a used one for less than $250 lately.  Too much.

Kept popping in and out near midnight (PST) last night but couldn't fish one out...

I understand that so well... A friend of mine told me, two months ago "I want to build the HH, but it's so expensive for just a lego set !" and I said "Buy it now ! I'm sure it will retire before Xmas and that you'll not loose some money if you sell it used later ! You'll love it !"

So he bought one to build... it took a month to receive it (that may be a part of his problem), because it was on backorder, and now, he doesn't want to build it anymore because the price is already so high (+50% of the MSRP within a month), that he would be even more upset to open a set he could so easily invest in... 

People need to get their priorities straight!

 

Buying LEGO products does serve but one use: Reselling them later!

 

Also they should stop buying other stuff just because they might enjoy it and be happy... I mean what nonsense is that? Spending money on things?! You should keep that money and hoard it. And one day when you're 90 years old sitting in that dark empty space you call home you'll at least have a lot of money to keep you company and boy all those happy memories you can share with it, like that one time when you didn't open a LEGO set that you really wanted to build but sold it for some more money.

Hh is popping back at amazon. I grabbed a couple :)

It's nice that Amazon has a purchase limit of 2 per account per week.  That way more people have a chance to grab one.

Finally managed to grab two more HHs through Amazon.

How can i never get them?!?!?!

Just keeps coming back. Wish I could get another. Don't have to right tools. Bringing a knife to a gun fight is what I do every time I try to get this. And I don't know where to get a gun.
