Oh yeah, I bought 4 fun packs at Target for 50% off via cartwheel. The kids were thrilled. I am tempted to bust out the Kragle.

Target online item return Architecture Studio. 

111.89 instead of 159.99

Perfect seals. 

Just picked up a Sandcrawler 75059 on AWD for $260. Whish me luck. I really wanted one to build so I hope it shows up in good shape.

Picked up my 2 Big Yellow Box 10697 from site to store and kindly asked them to scan them to see what it rings up as. Came up at $15. I said is there any way I can gt that price. After 20 min and 4 different people got them for $15. The one guy was basically trying to buy the one from me even searching for price on Amazon. I said yea some low lifes resell these for over $100.  

RE 39.99 WM

Two general grievous buildable figures

Not my purchase but someone picked up a relatively under priced 10179 listed at £1300 from UK Gumtree ad that popped up last night and the ad was gone this morning although can still be found thanks to google cache.

Same seller also had a 10189 Taj listed at £1200 which has also disappeared so maybe the same buyer did a deal a got both for a good price.

Funny, someone is selling that very same one on ebay.fr right now.

bought 2 75094 tydirium shuttle for 160€ on amazon

 

There were 2 separate occasions when buying a temple of airjitzu in store yielded a free set (enter the serpent and Ronin Rex). Both have msrp in the $50 range. That is about as good as can be gotten for an exclusive like this.

Ended my Architecture streak by picking up a Fairground Mixer (139.99 - used VIP points)

But if I read it correctly the french listing is showing shipping from the US (New York). so basically this listing (you just have the "International Version" of this listing): http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lego-Star-Wars-Ultimate-Collectors-Millennium-Falcon-10179-1st-edition-set-/111468646511

Likely the Gumtree listing copied the image off of ebay, which makes it all the more suspicious to me.

Picked up a couple T-Rex Trackers and Indominus Rex Escapes

I found a few more Utapau Trooper Battle Packs for $6.50 at Target.

(sorry, I'm in France so all my searches get redirected through the French equivalent)

But yes, my point was that the image was either stolen for the Gumtree listing or for the eBay listing. You pick.

Given that the ebay listing has several images which all correspond (same floor, same lighting, same wall), I think the gumtree one is suspicious. Especially at that price.

Got another farnsworth house + villa savoye at mrsp

Man, I love architecture sets!!!

42040 Fire Plane $38.  Couldn't turn it down at that price.

3 Milano Spaceship Rescues at 50% off

My wife stumbled upon a 70169 - Agent Stealth Patrol in a local toy store's clearance bin, for 50% off. She messaged me about it, asking if she should get it. Told her to take it.  

Found this listing on eBay and figured it was worth a shot to buy one- worst case if something goes wrong I should be able to get my money back. Been collecting for 6 months now and this would be my first Harry Potter set!!! What do you guys think? I've never seen any Harry Potter bootlegs out in the wild so hopefully this is the real deal.  There were 4 available in total and they were all snatched up pretty quick
