the promo art for the new movie is a tightly cropped closeup of a dinosaur eye - htf do they know this is indominus rex and not SUPER indominus rex?   i bet it IS SUPER indominus rex.  totally not the same thing and very innovative.  the article is nothing but a shill to get some page views and certainly not something i would want to base any children's toy investment strategy decision upon.  meanwhile TRU keepin da price down on this one by hauling out the phantom stock.  spider is such a nice touch. retail irony.  kids,  don't take this one .

 

That is awesome! That store must be hurting for sales. Gotta make every dollar count. Can't even discount that set... some managers need to take a step back and see what's wrong with that picture.

However, I can't believe that store still have 75917. These are extinct in Canada.

Assuming that it isn't a return and filled with junk, then yes absolutely. Check the seals. Shake it to make sure there isn't anything rattling around. Is the box in decent shape or beaten up? If you are suspicious about anything I'd open it just to make sure. You will still be able to sell it open/sealed bags and still make a decent profit a little further down the road.

No, you shouldn’t. Totally not worth it. But just curious, which store? Asking for a friend...

haha, 150 and you are thinking about it? Maybe you can use a calculator. Selling for over $200 on ebay, and you get it for $150, I guess it's too much work to flip this. Just leave it on the shelf. Not worth it making only $50.

Auction on IR on ebay

I’m all for helping people. But I do believe stupid questions exist.

Sold my last one yesterday for £215. These have been great. Only regret is not buying more when they were on 3 for 2 and 20% off

Yeah that might be true but once you input shipping/fees PayPal and eBay you’re working for free.

Most of us here just buys it, hold it for a few years and then sell it when the price is right.

Selling for over £200 in the uk.  Must be one of the few sets doing better in europe than the usa.

Sold my last one for £230.....plenty more to sell.

So, time to start listing?  I haven't sold any yet, best get to it.

Its time to start buying!
At this rate, it’ll be $1000 by Easter!

Wow I was buying these at target for $70 at the end. Figured it had plateaued at $250. Congrats to people still holding.

It was stuck at $300 until recently. The herd has thinned out, for now.

You can pick them up on EBay for under $300 if someone wants to flip a few.

I think a lot of them (us) sold when we got wind of the new sets. It was one of the harder to get sets in Europe anyway so the last people standing will either coin it or have problems due to the abundance of similar sets.

That's what I did. Sold prior to the new sets coming out. I made a nice profit, so I can't complain too much. Congrats to those who held but I would say sell soon. I can't see this going up much higher with bogus bricks and other bootlegs out there. I'm actually surprised it's gotten this high.

The thing is to not get too greedy and risk a rehash. I'm just considering an offer for all my Raptor Escapes, bangers & mash of course!
