What Lego set did you buy today?

The Minecraft and JW sets are steals at those prices. DSFD and Cap Rex good too.

I´d take back all the Volcano sets though. Too damn high even at 45 USD.

    Wow. This might be one of the craziest deals I ever found. I just left Savers (a goodwill type store). Found a big bag of Legos marked $9.99. I had a 30% off coupon, so I paid $7. I wasn't sure what w

Thanks! I agree completely about the Volcano sets. Leaving soon to do so.

You're high

Too high a buy in to quck flip, it´s got at least 9 months to go and those prices will come round again. Of course, if you like tying up capital for no good reason, in for 30.

That is the name of the game , invest.... quick flipping is getting harder.... I bought some fortresses too and 200 bucks is no big deal for 4 of those.....

That's more like it

Check back in November and fill your boots before Xmas rush  but why waste ammo now? I got them for 39 euros RRP 99 and couldn´t move them at 59 as Amazon was price matching me!

Tabby´s sub 30 GBP buy-in before XMAS was the right price at the right time.

My problem isn't capital, it's supply.  I was clearing at least $1000 a day during the holidays.  Until I ran out of stock.  The only time I quick-flip is when there is a window between limited supply and over-supply.  If I can get something that very few people can get and it's only going to be for a limited time, then I'll flip them.  Otherwise, I'm buying and holding for that holiday rush.  Again, I'm not tying up capital because the supply isn't sufficient to have to not purchase something due to lack of funds.  Once I see merchandise that I can make 2x - xx my buy-in and I can't make the purchase due to limited funds, I'll reconsider.  Ain't happened for a while.

For me its space. I have very limited space. I did return 3 of them. Kept one. Its an interesting set and its different than what we see constantly with City sets. It might pay off when its retired. 

All these pics of dimensions cases made me itchy to buy something in bulk.  Way I look at it is I got a head start on Ross this year and Walmart & B&N next year.

Nice!!! That's what I'm talking about. My Dimensions boxes have nothing on this. This is heavy duty!

Are all of those Easter Egg Hunts?

Some Valentine's. For whatever reason Lego did cases of 5 on those then went back to 6.

Can I take your Elves off you? They are an absolute steal at that price!

I should have grabbed a few more. I first grabbed only 1. Before leaving the store I went back for more and all but 2 were gone. I could have grabbed at least 3 more if I swiped them all when I first saw them. I can't wait to try the Dragon build. One will be for my niece's bday next weekend. That only leaves one :)
