Plus phantom stock, imagine going in deep on Blacksmith and BookShop.  🤦🏻‍♂️

That is why many of these fools have pivoted to YouTube to make their 5% by trying to pump up a dead market with fake stats or focusing on the 5 sets that have been winners in the past 2 years. 
 

There are too many good expensive sets coming out every 1/4 that people can’t keep up. The market is flooded like Beanie Babies. Cantina which should have been a slam dunk winner with all of the exclusive minifigures will be a kiss of death set for many. 
 

That is also why this place is dead AF everyone who was just in it for the money has left for greener pastures.

Be honest.  Tell us how you really feel 😆

Call me a fool but I am still buying at least one Bookshop a month for as long as that zombie walks.  But I have a decently large warehouse to store them and, if I didn't spend money on LEGO, I'd just spend it on hookers and blow.  And yes, I am currently sitting on 14 Blacksmiths and :::shudder::: 9 of the original Disney Castles (71040.)

Maybe he's joking cause there is no such thing as legos?  It's just Lego regardless if single or plural.   Not sure why else he would doubt people still being able to make a killing even if he doesn't. 

Are you ready for retired set deals from Walmart in two days? Woohoo.. Also Technic Dodge Charger for $80, probably more. Guess they’re taking a page from the Amazon lame book.

 

30% Target Circle Deals are active.  $39.19 Commander Cody Helmets, Eldorado Fortress $150.49, many others.
Also, make sure to look for this under deals:

Edit -- **Actually nevermind, Toys are excluded**... for those inclined, Rakuten normally has 1% cashback @ Target.  Not much but every little bit helps.

Also, my circle shows only $15 from $110 so guess YMMV

Thanks for the heads up Raindog.....Mine is Spend $125 get 15 back

Most of the time these Target Circle Deals are all the same.....Anyone else getting a different offer?

RMN has 2% CB and toys are not excluded. I grabbed the corvette for store pickup then will use the $10 towards Eldorado. I am thinking since these discounts are linked to your Circle account that the Limit of 3 Eldorado will be enforced. 
 

Anyone ordering more than 3 of any of these sets?

I thought about going for 3 more Cody Helmets but figure it's not worth the risk

If i remember correctly Target Circle Deals are similar to Walmart+ deals....Go over the limit and risk your orders being cancelled, getting banned, or both

Hasn't happened to me yet but i've talked to many people who it has happened to

9 Cody Helmets and 6 6-packs of minifigs.  I'm really hoping that Amazon will match the helmets.

Was hesitant to go in on the minifigs but do think that’s a good deal

I'm the only LEGO vendor at a comic show next month.  I've been buying up both Marvel and Series 25 packs and cases when I can find them cheap.  i think/hope that they will sell well.

True....But if i'm gonna risk getting banned from target it'll be for something bigger and better than some Cody Helmets
