Just like the title asks, what LEGO set did you buy today?

I bought the 4184 POTC Black Pearl.

Visited a Barnes and Noble today because their site said they had a Harry Potter Knight Bus in stock for $35.00. No Knight Bus was found.

 

However, the site also said they had a 4738 Harry Potter Hagrid's Hut for $40.00 at the only other Barnes and Noble near me.

 

And it was there.

 

And now it's here.

 

Actually these prices are awesome! Where did you find these do cheap?

 

Should have mentioned that.

 

2 x Duplo Deluxe Train Set $47 (I have flipped 4 of these already for $120 each, they are a really easy sale) - Fred Meyer

4 x 4441 Police Dog Van $14.99 - Shopko

2 x 4635 Fun with Vehicles $14.99 - Shopko

1 x 2012 Star Wars Advent Calendar $11 (after $5 TRU rewards) - TRU

2 x 9491 Geonosian Cannon $12 - Fred Meyer

1 x City Garbage Truck $11 - Fred Meyer

1 x 9493 X-Wing Starfighter $40 - Fred Meyer

 

Yeah, the train is the 5609. Fred Meyer has them marked clearance down to $95, and clearance toys qualify for their 50% off clearance sales. Tough to find though. I may save these two for a bit, seems like they should go for $150 around Christmas pretty easily.

 

The rest of those Fred Meyer prices aren't even clearance, just a sale they are running.

I've often wondered how many HP sets are still sitting in B&****** stores across the US. Probably the only place left you could find them at retail.

And pretty much the only reason I'd bother stepping into one these days.

Oh, and just noticed your profile says Mississippi. Fred Meyer is a regional chain in the NW US.

You should probably quote the post this is targeting. Just confused the heck out of me.

I think I just realized he was referring to Msudawgs56. His profile location says Mississippi.

What the? Your post changed in mid qoute. Well, bugger me.

I'm fast with my edits. I rarely get stupidly quoted.

 

EDIT: Although, now that I say that to a mod....you could probably make me look like I'm saying whatever...

Yes, I agree with your post, noted.

 

(not going to say who I am replying to though. :-)

Yeah but the field of culprits is rather small now, isn't it? It's like the lineup of The Sopranoes. WE'RE ALL GUILTY!!!! :devil:

Thanks Sarm34

Just got a 1990 (1677) 'Rabbit' off my cousin for $0.99!  

From amazon.it:

 

2x Tower Bridge @ 174EUR each

1x R2D2 @ 145EUR

 

In the nicest possible way, I'd like to say "I hate you guys!"

 

Hope I bagged some bargains!

The Burrow, Hogwarts Castle and Hogwarts Express for $144 total (Used)

Great find! You sure did.

OK, new rule, let's all go check the Brickpicker price guide before asking if we did good on a purchase. Especially before creating a new thread to ask if we did good???

Where did you score this?

Ebay... It was listed while I was checking my home page and immediately went ahead and got it. It was listed as an auction but had the BIN option for 130+shipping

Nice catch. I have gotten a few good ones like that. I got the SW 8017 smaller Darth Vader Tie Fighter for $34 used. About 15ish under normal. I like grabbing used sets if I am wanting to build something.

I'm thinking I will be keeping the Burrow and selling the rest as I already have the other two but missed on 4840 and it is just crazy expensive to get a new one. It will basically be free after I sell the others.

I had the feeling you were not really asking...but really wasn't sure lol

Purchased an Epic Dragon Battle for 70 bucks plus tax from this Wholesale liquidation store which was basically just some warehouse in the back of an office suite...pretty weird but it was legit, sadly that's the only Lego set they had in the whole place. Mostly TV's DVDs, and furniture.

 

70 sounds like a good deal and it was but the box is pretty badly creased and slightly indented like it had one of those Wal-Mart security spider-web things on it. Ican probably open and build it then sell it for around the price I paid, or I can just hold it like my others and sell it for a bit less than the others after they go EOL and appreciate.
