January 25, 201411 yr I'm not sure anyone got them for $20 on lego. No one here said they did that I know of. I was able to load up for 30 ea week before last for tru Sent from my iPhone using Br
January 25, 201411 yr Picked up 4 of the VC's with a $13 item for $453 - $120 = $333 + tax = $360 Picked up 4 of the Falling Waters with a $13 item for $453 - $120 = $333 + tax = $360 Big shopping day. If these falling waters don't retire this year, might not have been the best purchase.

If these falling waters don't retire this year, might not have been the best purchase. That`s great! Hopefully they do retire, which will mean more money quicker, but Falling Water will be a $250-$300 set on it`s own eventually, even if it`s still around for another year. It is a very popular building in real life, and pretty much anyone who is a fan of the Architecture line will want one.
January 25, 201411 yr Well at least you're tryin' Well at least you're tryin' Well at least you're tryin' ....Okay, when did I fall into an episode of The Twilight Zone or the movie Groundhog Day? I swear your browser is possessed! :frantics:
January 25, 201411 yr I wasn't planning on it, but they pulled out a Lord Business Lair during the LEGO Movie activity event at Barnes and Noble this afternoon and with my kids club and member coupon stack I couldn't pass it up. Large set with an exclusive main character minifig was a must for my own personal collection. Crossing my fingers that the movie isn't god-awful...
January 26, 201411 yr Got lucky today in NJ. Open box 10188 with sealed interior boxes for $266. Someone returned it. Sent from an iPhone using the Brickpicker app
January 26, 201411 yr I finally went to fill up my pick a brick box yesterday. there wasn't that great a selection in my lego store. might try to sell through bricklink!
January 27, 201411 yr Did some Target shopping today 4 batwing 6863 for $34 each (seems to be the only place to still have these) 2 of lone ranger train 79111 for $79 each (meh about this set but figured may as well, hope to have it hit $140 then sell) plus 5% off with my redcard Now if I could find somewhere to match the MOM price that they have I'd be set. not sure how I did but the order is placed.

Well Done
January 27, 201411 yr Wow, it always amazes me how much lego some people can afford to buy! Well Done "Afford" is a relative term... After selling, one re-buys, thus the endless cycle! Anybody splitting their profits into half re-invest and half other non-Lego investments?
January 27, 201411 yr New 10219 Maersk train. Been wanting one for a while. I'll prob hold onto it since it is sealed though. Too bad I couldn't find a super deal on a used one. For my son... Open box 10198 (sealed white boxes) at a local Target that was 30% off. Wrote about it another thread. 6248 Pirates volcano island. No box 4181 POTC Isla De la Murata with box. This will go nicely with his two displayed POTC ships.

January 27, 201411 yr 1 Black Pearl @ Amazon WH :149 (v.good condition) Don't have one, pretty happy about this find
January 28, 201411 yr Managed to score a b-wing for $125 and a WVC for $75 NISB, from some guy that works in my building. Walked by the for sale message board in the lobby of my work, and low and behold this guy was selling Legos he got for Christmas he didn't want. I never thought a Monday would be this wonderful!!!

January 28, 201411 yr No, married 11 years with two great kids. I own an investment advisory firm, so my wife completely trusts my investment decisions. I would like to make thousands on this stuff years from now. That requires a sizeable investment now. I am hoping for a half million in value 5 years from. We'll see.

I'm aiming for 1/5th of that but that requires diversifying to flipping for things other than Lego.
