watch the price plummet as its available to all now.

any views on price potential on the Batman 2 figure polybag?

sold 5 before it was generally available, and sold for an average of £25, but ebay market looks saturated now... around £12 each.

Have 3 more to sell, worth holding them back, or will the market saturation mean they stay low at £12 a bag now?

IMO it won't go near £25 again, it will be £6-8 next week, and may go back to £12 once the promo ends.

I had a stash of Spiderman 30448 poly bags last year and was selling them easily for £20+ when there were only a few sellers, it's been £6-8 since and has never recovered.

I had the same situation with the Toys R Us exclusive Hulk polybag, buy in roughly £4 at the Brick show 2015 - sold like hot cakes at £14.99 a bag.

Bought another load stupidly at the 2016 show for £5 a bag, couldn't get more than £7.99 a go this time round...

 

As I said before, LEGO is now mainly for flipping not investing. I can't think of more than 10 sets currently that will even reach RRP (plus fees) after EOL let alone exceed it. This could be why LEGO turned a blind eye to bogus bricks for such a long time... to upset resellers? If so, it worked!

Such a lot of negativity...

Anyway...Deals thread

Thanks for comments. Sorry for going a little off topic.

agree with tabbie boy, buying in to a deep discount to RRP is essential.

Ive definitely learnt that promos and polybags need to be flipped very early on in their release to get a decent price 

Argos employer offloading tons of freebies which should have been probably given to customers for Lego purchases.

Doctor Who back at Amazon UK.

8 in stock.

Make that 7 and price dropped to £39.99. This doesn't concern me as I still remember the Delorean wasn't exactly "snapped up" when that was discounted. Doctor Who is the sort of set that'll soon be missed when it's not as incredibly widely available and discounted as it is now. LEGO simply overestimated initial demand (like they do will most sets these days!) and demand will come in due course. I know of lots of Doctor Who fans who have never heard of this set but, I know they'll want one!

I've already got a cash buyer lined up to take all mine for £28 each so I still make an easy £1000+ if I shift the lot. However, I'm in no rush.

DSSS for £20 for those interested:

How come they are week 15 codes if it was only launched in June? I need to check mine.

I have the same code on a set bought last year. And S codes are normal for European retail purchases.

IIRC this one had quite a few different runs.

06S6 on Droid Escapes

Seal codes on mine 36s6

arrived this week

Also worth mentioning that when they arrived this week they were badly packaged and had box damage. Very surprising for Lego

Probably returns? I must admit, the last set they sent me didn't have the usual air-pillows in it, had a dent in the corner and double-sealed. That's the problem with sale items as restocks are sometimes remorse returns from resellers and returns from retailers who don't care too much. It's not always wise to complain as you'll stick out as a reseller. If it's just one set, you just say it's a present for a very fussy little boy ;-)

EU SAH sale seems to be over. That means no more cheap Ectos.
