September 20, 201510 yr That's a really good deal, I guess it was good to buy them in a lot.Yes, sometimes finding lots that folks are trying to offload leads to better deals.
September 21, 201510 yr Today I got my 21005 - FallingWater that I bought for 110,97€, the box it's a bit damaged. What do you think? Still a good deal?
September 21, 201510 yr Got one in much worse condition for 45 110 is not a good deal (RRP 90) and I advised someone not to pay so much a few months back, but this now seems to be a set that can be bought for over RRP after EOL and should still turn some profit in years to come provided you hold on to it for a while.

Well, 45€ it's awesome. I don't want to make money right now, I'll hold it for at least 1 year.
September 21, 201510 yr I recovered a sunken QAR off ebay. Probably paid too much ($120), esp since I already have one, but it was x5 points and I was itching for a new project. I have a pretty good stash of ship parts from bulk deals so hopefully it comes together with minimal bricklinking. I enjoy doing sets like this much more than out of a sealed box anyways.

I've got three of those at the moment, one to keep and two for eBay a little closer to Christmas. I plan on getting a bit more than $120 though
September 22, 201510 yr I didn't know TRU did Sandcrawlers!? Never seen one in the London ones nearest to me and don't see them on the website.Do they have secret stock?I got it in the Coventry store - they have them in the Solihull store as well
September 22, 201510 yr I got it in the Coventry store - they have them in the Solihull store as wellYeah there are a few 'good' TRU that stock the large exclusives. Unfortunately none are near me.
September 22, 201510 yr So I'm in Asda ( our Walmart for you Americans) just picking up some odds and ends tonight, anyway in this random corner I spotted like several cases of series 13 minifigures, which looked untouched, and seeing as how they just cleared all the Simpsons series 2 down to £1, I figured I'd grab one and price check, long story short they were £1 each, so I ended up with 3 full boxes. Good random score.
September 24, 201510 yr 2 75053 The Ghost 62 € each1 75054 AT-AT 72 €1 42023 Construction Crew 38 €all at Rossman offline shop, thougt they were all gone these days .
September 24, 201510 yr Argos 3-4-2 managed to get full box or series 14 MF.Nearly 7 complete sets from 3 argos stores . Also bought 3 Kylo Ren's Command Shuttle while I was there.
September 24, 201510 yr 3 R5s in the Argos 3-4-2.when is the next 3-4-2? I think I need to plan a "business" trip....
September 24, 201510 yr HH sealed but with open and completely trashed box...........$320. I actually have a set I built at home with a minty box. The only difference between that and a brand new one would be the tape is cut. Would you guys consider it NIB for pricing purposes?
September 24, 201510 yr If the seals are cut I would not list it as a new item on eBay. You're opening yourself up to a potential SNAD case. I would mark it as used, thoroughly describe the condition (ie - damaged box, cut seals, but sealed bags), and take good pictures to show the condition of the box. As far as pricing you are likely to get pretty close to the current market prices for a HH in this condition since the bags are sealed and most people are buying to build it at this point.

I'd def list it as an open item with sealed bags. Not sure if I'll hold it for a while. Im sure the price will just keep going up on this one.
