2 75103 for $90.24 at target with red card (before tax)

Pretty freaking cheap...

Nice, in for 2.  Even cheaper for me since I used a couple of free $10 gift cards from their diaper promo.

My apologies if already mentioned but looks like Target matched amazon on Ferry and Caravan such that if you want multiples to hit $100 and have red card, you can get these for right around 55% off.  Not a city fan myself:

Ferry - $17.99 - buy 6.  Comes out to $13.13 a piece.  MSRP $29.99 (although note it has been routinely at $19.99 for its life.

Caravan - $12.79 - buy 8.  Comes out to $9.18 a piece.  MSRP $19.99

http://www.target.com/p/lego-city-van-caravan-60117/-/A-49119157

Tax not included in the analysis

Target.com, got both 75103 and 75140 for store pickup.

Total $77.40 before tax... ~52% off.... couldn't pass up for personal collection.

At Target: Gen Grevious $27 each. Darth Vader $21 each. Rey Speeder $12.79. Boba Fett/Han Carbon Chamber set $17.49. 

3x Gen Grevious and 1x Darth Vader set = $105 plus tax minus $25 = $80. So that's $20 each. There's a 3x limit for Gen Grevious. Not bad. Gen Grevious retails for $35 and Vader for $25

don't want to be "that guy" but if any sets that are not retired and for which there are "other" sellers who are cheaper than amazon themselves... [ reminder might be exo-suit... recurrence ]

Yeah it's hard to sell.  I grabbed a few at wal mart for half off. I'm not losing but I also don't like being bothered with them either.

There's a new First Order Battle Pack coming out in 2017, which will hurt the value of the Troop Transporter. My money is actually on the Resistance Transporter. It's actually a really cool ship. Hopefully it's shared heritage with the B-Wing doesn't hurt it

Hey now the B-wing is a cool ship.  Glad I found some Resistance troop transporters for $20 at Target.

Yeah but 6 carbon chambers is almost 105 so like 80 after discount.  then with redcard and discounted gift cards around 50 percent off.  I'm not gonna go nuts on math but seems like a decent set.

You sold me on the carbon chambers. In for twelve at $13.29 each after tax, red card, and $25 off $100 discount (49% off). Two separate orders of six. Good deal.

If it were retiring now, I might scoop them up too.  You can almost pay for the set (at half off) by selling Boba Fett by himself.  But we've got a year left on this one.

The BPer battle. Time vs discount vs space ... gotta have a median to succeed.

Agreed. Maybe too early to buy for investment purposes. I tacked one on to a Target order (at $20 or 21... before the price dropped even more to $17ish) to reach the $100 threshold. Both the Boba Fett and Han with carbonite piece has already sold for $10 each.  There's a new Star wars Desert Skiff set 75174 http://www.bricktoynews.com/lego-star-wars-2017-sets-wing-desert-skiff-landspeeder/ with Boba Fett coming soon which could hurt the value of the Carbonite Chamber set. Pics that I've seen thus far of the Boba Fett in the Desert Skiff set look very similar (or the same). Still the Carbonite Chamber is a neat idea and have the carbonite piece that isn't extremely common plus the Ugnaught minifig. I bought one for myself just for the Boba Fett and carbonite piece. 

Worst case scenerio at $17 (plus additional deduction of $25 off 100) its a great gift. 

I'm on the fence with the Resistance Transporter... Its different. Any chance that might see Force Awakens version of Leia in a microfighter set (like Hera with the Ghost microfighter?) That could hurt the value of the Resistance Transporter.. although its interesting build might reduce the loss of value. 

You guys are killing with the great deals. Over the past few weeks I've stepped back several times and asked myself if I should stop with the purchases (can I move the items at a profit that I'm buying?). Its easy to get carried away. Thanks everyone for sharing your finds! 

Sorry. Hope I didn't stray off topic too much. Batman (movie) Mr Freeze set has dropped to $16.82 at Amazon. Batmobile 70905 down to $49.99 https://www.amazon.com/LEGO-BATMAN-MOVIE-Batmobile-Building/dp/B01J8PBBKA/ref=pd_sim_21_2?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B01J8PBBKA&pd_rd_r=2CHS8A1XY148WR152FGW&pd_rd_w=yNSOC&pd_rd_wg=7pGzp&psc=1&refRID=2CHS8A1XY148WR152FGW and the Joker car is still at regular price.

SOLD! Thank you

I'm going deep on this one.

Those holding back better not complain in the next month, in the next year, about how there is a lack in Lego sales.

Take advantage. At 40-50% off msrp there is money to be made.

But then again everyone has different profit margins. No need to be greedy. Profit is profit. Sell at a high volume if profits are slim. Adjust to come out a winner.

if you ball hard, you make space.

You just talked me into twelve more. 24 of these is good for now until summer clearance when Walmart will probably mark them at 30% off and they will all get scooped up, never making it to this type of discount in the wild except for the random backwoods Walmart that will blow them out at $5 each. My best bet for a similar price later will probably be at Shopko by stacking a sale or clearance price with a $10 off $50 coupon, but that's no guarantee. When the price is right, you buy. These sets are small, so storage is not an issue. I don't quick flip very much so most everything I buy goes into storage for at least 2-3 years anyway. 49% off is a no brainer for me on this one.
