Brickenvy. lol. If he can sell a 10179 for 12 grand, more power to him. I wonder if he's lurking around here somwhere...

if he is then he is a hardcore lurker because he has been called out several times on this forum.

Brick envy is weird though because they also have some very competitive prices......I like many members have bought from him and they offer great customer service.

 

I'm not knocking them. It's just I've seen some stupid high prices there. Helm's Deep for $299.99, instance. Props to them if the customer service and quality of the products is worth it, and keeps the business runnning. I just think that particular store occupies a niche that would be practically impossible to move into.

agreed that a lot of his listings are ludacris to say the least.

i didn't notice anything rapper-related about them...

You called it uppity, I call it avoiding ghetto lowlife classless people. Same thing I guess.

THAT'S why Walmart bought the ASDA chain in the UK! :D

 Sounds like they are driving a lot of traffic to their ebay store with those items. Even people who aren't in the market for a $800 Diagon Alley (like ALL of us here) are clicking the listing because it's so crazy high.

I do not want to open a new thread so I'm posting here...

 

look how high some uneducated guy bid for Darth Malgus....

Good Lord I'm gonna sell him a Time Share.

I'm.gonna sell him a bunch of Malgus minifigs!! :)

Willing seller, wiling buyer. Market forces are sometimes incomprehensible.

Spoken like a true liberal

But common look at it this way. There's 2 of a set listed one for 600 one for 1000. I'm

Gonna list mine for 1500 knowing that these other two will sell eventually. There is a possibility someone else will list another but if they don't the lowest asking price will be 1500. Just a waiting game

Liberals don't take advantage of other people? Now that's breaking news

 

My only concern with the practice of those high prices is skewing the market data to determine investments. If a few of them sell well overpriced it would have to effect the market value right?

Thats definitely a concern. Thats why its good to look at the median and the last ones sold data on the item page when you look it up to make sure its not inflated.

The fastest way to have your comment deleted and/or a thread closed is to start throwing political talk around, I know it starts out all in good fun but it has no place on this website. Please refrain from making potilical comments, even joking around. Thanks.

Human mind is truly a mystery!

I love it when two bidders get carried away. My first "big" eBay sale about 8 years ago was a DVD I bought for
