Went out to a family who was selling some SpongeBob, and Ferrari sets.  Once there they mentioned that they had a few more things they had found. Her mother was a collector, and just shoved stuff in random spots when she was done.  Needless to say once I got it all home and went through it I was pleasantly surprised.

The tub is nothing but Harry Potter, 30lbs worth.

​Some nice sets in there, how much you paid for all of it?

Holy moly! Nice find!

May i ask what you paid for it?

Wow!  GC!

Wow! Amazing find! Enjoy going through all of it!

A freaking Grand Carousel? Give up the price already, we need to know how much to hate you 

The GC alone makes that entire purchase worth it (unless you paid $10K).  Would love to know how much you bought it for.

Is the GC still sealed?

I have to tell you, as much as GC goes for, if I found one like that, I'd be opening that bad boy up immediately.  That's my dream set.

Is that a sealed metro liner and club car?

Yes!

​On the second picture, bottom right. The GC appears to be opened. 

Mr. Andre put it best. I hate you. My bulk lot GC came mixed in with 180 pounds of mixed bricks and is missing the baseplate and only has two sails.

Paid $500 for it all... the GC was opened, inventorying it now to check how complete it is. But looks like it is mostly there

Very nice!

​What an awesome find! Nice job... Slow clap... well done

$500....wow...which state is this in?

Outstanding.  Looks like 4x on your money, at a minimum.  That's an A+ Craigslist find, by any measure.

Went to buy a SpongeBob....came out with a Grand Carousel....wow...that luck.

Very nice. Are the Santa Fe sets brand new?

The trains are both new, there is a third that's open but complete.

Nice find some great sets to ad to your collection. 

 

Now the one question everyone wants to know, What series are those Mixels?
