November 17th, can't come soon enough.  That's when you will see a drop in sellers across the board.

I didn't sell enough items between Sept 1st and Oct. 31st to sell in the Toys & Games Category after Nov. 17th. Regardless of my constant 100 rating.

Those that didn't make the 25 sales criteria from September 1st to October 31st will be dropped from selling on Amazon until January.  It lessens the competition a bit.

Not authorized to sell toys after the 17th, so the sellers will drop from the list.

Someone's going to be busy cleaning up this thread later.

Next book, "Advent Calendars and the Bottom Line"

There is a 3rd party seller on Amazon has 857 of these in FBA @ $62.99.........

How long will these be cleared? 

Makes me wonder how wholesale accounts are able to sell FBA.

I'm taking donations to liquidate this one.

Even the one at $47 + shipping has 200 on hand.....

Stay on target... stay on target... November just started and it just disappeared from LEGO Shop at Home for (hopefully) the last time.

If you bought 857 of them, it sure could feel like it.

Buy at $34.99 locally? I have sold a couple of these in the past but never gone in heavy. I could get 20+

not sure if a a month is left since we need to take into account day 1 in the calendar (Dec 1) and possible shipping delays (Thanksgiving holiday, increase in packages sent, etc...) and a smaller buyers market (since most folks who want it will already have purchased it).  i would say there is 7-10 days left on the safe side. 

I was selling calendars well into December last year. Some people give them as gifts to use next year. My last sale was Dec 15th. Looking at my numbers it seems the last week of Nov was when I sold the bulk of them and it looks like I was selling 70-75 plus shipping on Ebay, I am still not worried. These don't turn back into a pumpkin on midnight Dec 1st or anything.

My son is excited about the Star Wars Advent calendar.  When I showed him the C-3PO Santa version online he was pretty disappointed.  He wanted the Darth version that his sister opened last year (he got City).  I then showed him Darth Maul from two years and he was even more excited.  I bought one of those very cheap a little while back.  Now I can sell the C-3PO one I had earmarked for him this year.  Win-win.

How's 75056 doing for any of you who still have them?  I see a lot on ebay but listed at pretty high prices when compared to this years version.  Anyone having luck still moving 2014's calendar?
