So as well all look to get legos we are tapping all resources

ebay

craigslist

i recently have had some success with estate sales. I realize they may be priced higher but have been good for some bulk lots and flips.

i hate seeing a listing and it's too far from me or can't tell what's in the lots pictured do I figured we could use this to share estate sale stories, post sale you see and more.

 

The below pictures are about 6 hrs from me

they are selling bins as a lot 

other items separately-

A nice few boxes of dental implants there too

I picked out a construction mega crane and the obvious boat. Hoping for any other hints

One of the soccer builds is in there, you can see the nets in the uppermost back bin. Plus some duplo and parts that look like non-lego taking up space... that red 4 pronged thing for example..? Might be less actual lego there than it looks like on the surface.

Actually that red "ramp" is Lego, it's the Racer Launcher for Warrior #4569-1 part #30556/red... a 10 cent part from 2001 nobody wants :-)

The front-most bin with the crane also has a "Digger" #7248-1, the bin next to it has the remnants of an "Arctic Expedition" #6573-1

Any ideas on set

It was a sealed City Harbor set 4645 I got for $5

Bring this back- 

First my weekend Score- Local Estate Sale showed this in their listing

I walk into the sale and figure a few towers of bulk sorted- then I see this on the floor

I asked the sale worker how much for everything, bundle deal. Needless to say their number was lower then mine. So I called for backup, got another van and got it all, except one plane I let some kid buy.

There is Cafe Corner, Green Grocer, Grand Carousel, other modulars. Some custom MOCs, entire bin of baseplates. I only am 6 boxes in.
