I've just started buying. Came home yesterday to a pile of boxes by the front door. Had a blast opening them after my son went to bed! Got two Ectos, a Parisian Restaurant, a Detective's Office and a Pet Shop. Still waiting on a Red 5 and a Palace Cinema. I can't wait to do more shopping this week.

Someone has the buying bug! Be careful buying is the easy part....selling and making a good profit is the harder part.

Yes, it is very easy to buy! Luckily, this is for investment purposes, so almost everything will be held long-term. I have a separate business to run, so I don't want to get sucked in to flipping as it's very time-consuming. Going to have some fun with this, though!

Good for you! This is supposed to fun. Some people here take this stuff way to serious.

2 - AT-DPs

Used 5526 with box missing a few pieces for $200

I scored this lot for $15 off of one of my local exchanges 

Received 15 R2D2 from our one of forum members. Well packed and comes in great condition. I even didn't pull them out but directly throw the whole boxes to my storage. I won't meet them again until Christmas season.

 

Bought a single Brainiac Attacks today. Love the set and the minis in it. Convinced this is never going on sale. Lol I just wanted to make sure I had one for myself at this point.

No discounts on pretty boxes. I prefer the ugly ducklings.

I know im gonna regret this but how much?!?

I finally cashed all my VIP points in plus $50US and picked up a Sandcrawler for me and the architecture studio for the wife. The bonus was since I missed out on the May the fourth promo, the manager (I believe) gave me a Darth Revan poly bag!

​I believe same price but you get extra VIP points. I could be wrong 'cause ravenb99 is a magician...

 

Just the 500 points  extra and a winter soldier.

Not sure why they were on sale but picked them up.

​I missed out on r2-d2 and definitely want one after seeing this.

I ordered the Indominus Rex Jurassic World set. Didn't really want to buy when it was just released but it was on sale...!

Winter Village Bakery 10216.  Used from eBay.  It was the last of the Winter Village sets that I needed.  Everything else I've either already bought, or put together through BrickLink.

I picked these two up today... Just jonzin to build some new Legos. I love the ghostbusters Ecto 1 it was a fun build...

​I sold one to a grandma (well, convinced her to buy one at Target today). She was in the LEGO aisle with her grandsons, and one of them kept going on about how it was "rare".  I just said "It is a Target exclusive," and we started a five minute conversation about the value of LEGO. She wouldn't let go of the set, saying, "I wonder if they'll even restock it." I think someone just found a new retirement job. 

I picked up a Final Duel from the lego store. I like the new Vader. He's smiling. ???? Zero JW sets in stock. PR and DO only modulars on shelf.
