I am trying to figure out where to move this discussion.  TBH, the discussion has been too civil for the bubble thread [emoji14]

I say let it be , the discussion is pertinent IMO . 

This thread is letting me know which sets I need to return, not buy. 
 

I'm so confused. First I see "buy in" is super important. Now you get the great buy in price and all of a sudden this is a bad thing.

the point is...the game has changed drastically...many will get weeded out...just because something goes on sale doesn't make it an automatic buy...this is 2016/17 not pre-2013

if you can't make profit, any "buy in" is meaningless

You have a time machine?

You want to take advantage of the super limited time warp/regional grocery chain/one-off store clearances instead of those available to the world through Amazon.  And the longer the deal sticks the more it's going to hurt the secondary market price down the road.

FM sells at a rate of about two per day at current sale prices. At RRP it's closer to one per day. Good price for a personal collection but people investing in it are going to be disappointed.

$100 feels right then.

It's 41130 coaster

What am I missing? This is the same price at Amazon, Target, TRU and K-Mart

It was 41130 coaster

and thursday at tru you could get them for about $60
 
i fear this thread turning into one where one newbie pushes other newbies into buying up stock on sets...almost like stocks lol

TRU also has it for $79
41130

FM will look great if there's a new Carousel to go with it next year.

There's more than one person...and one opinion...on this site.

Wasn't this $80, plus BOGO 40% off, plus TRUTH, plus $25 gift card with $100 purchase?  If you bought 2 I think you could get them pretty dang cheap.

When price is the same, many like TRU for 10% TRUTH, 20% GCs, Rewards Points, promos (currently a bowling polybag and $25 GC if you spend $100 and last week a Bricktober) vs. WM.  They were just pointing out a potential path to a better buy-in for you and helping you see the potential discounts of your competitors.
