Harry Potter loose sets YAY or NAY?

Featured Replies

Rumor is that there are new HP sets coming summer 2018. What scenes and buildings those cover is anyone's guess. Note that the above are from the second series of HP sets, not the latest wave from 2010. Net, all depends on what your objectives are, how badly you want these, and how risk-tolerant you are should similar sets be part of the summer release.

Thanks for the input.

Considering these for resale purposes, not for personal build. Just looking for thoughts on of these would be worth your time to separate and brickpick the missing pieces, and sell as used and complete.

Actually these are all Wave 1 (2001) outside of Chamber of Secrets(2002).  While I prefer the latter waves from Harry Potter, this is a good buy at $200.

I was quickly quoting off the top of my head. Looks like I got the wave wrong :)

Easy to do.  Lego made a crap ton of similar looking Harry Potter sets the first couple years.  

Yes, no questions. I've been collecting used HP sets, and they are worth the money - whether resale or for own collection. It's the time of the year where parents are looking for Christmas toys - this will definitely make you a profit.

The Castle will pull in $150 if complete.

I see the green snake for the chamber of secret, make sure it is complete - this is quite expensive by its own going by BL alone.

Fluffy is there as well, looks good.

Check and make sure you get the rarer mini figures.

HP is an easy yes, if the price is right... soo easy to move & already gaining a premium before the 2018 movie even hits. 

UDo have to watch out for missing parts thou, sometimes it's just easier to bulk-lot em, for example the knife teeth for the Basilisk (snake) are nearly $12 each, used.

 

I hope you bought it. I've made 250% return or better on almost every 2001 HP set I've had the pleasure to flip. Best earner of this venture by far. 

 

Edit: If you're not in a rush to flip it, I'd say price high with OBO. Many people will pay the premium asking price outright, but if you price high you'll at least get your target margins with almost a guarantee.
