July 18, 201312 yr On a work trip. Picked up a few things. - 2 x Orc Forge for $33.98 (Target) - 1 x Vermin Vaporizer for $29.98 (Target) - 2 x Mia's Bedroom for $4.98 (Target) - 1 x Luke's Landspeeder for $17 (Wal-Mart - yes, randomly found on a shelf) - 1 Ninjago poly booster for $3.50 (Wal-Mart) - 4 x Superman Metropolis Showdown for $7 (Wal-Mart) - 2 x Superman Black Zero Escape for $9 (Wal-Mart)
July 18, 201312 yr on top of the 3 additional arkhams I bought in the target sale this morning, I also hit up my shopkos and cleaned them out of Olivia's house. they have them on clearance for $56. I stacked an additional $10 off $50 coupon on each of them to take them down to $48.52/each after tax. I was able to get eight of them.
July 18, 201312 yr Just picked up 41015 Friends Dolphin Cruiser for my niece. Just sitting there on the shelf at Target @ MSRP. Official release isn't for another 2 weeks. Interesting (and great) thing - the box has 3 factory seals on each side of the box instead of 2. I certainly hope that becomes Lego standard. Passed on 4 Bug Obliterators at 50% off.
July 19, 201312 yr Battle of Endor used for $69. Says they "think" it's 100% but couldn't guarantee ---I'll find out soon! ;-)
July 19, 201312 yr 1 x Medieval Market Village and 1 x Quinjet for $184 Australian. Considering the retail prices, cannot complain at all.
July 19, 201312 yr I bought the last Orc Forge in the Reno area for msrp. Travelling for work has its benefits...
July 20, 201312 yr I can't believe how big of a difference there is in clearance prices. The 4 Targets I have been to still have HD at $113. MoM is $67. I would love to find some of the prices you guys report on here.
July 20, 201312 yr Picked up a 75022 for 25 because I honestly had no idea what it was / had never seen it before. Even if I don't resell it, probably worth it for the mechanical Darth Maul?
July 21, 201312 yr I hit a mega jackpot today at my local targets. I probably cleaned them out in my local area. All sets I purchased were at least 30%+ off. I think i did good with all the sets. They seem to be pretty popular/good legos. I saw at least 50 boxes of galaxy/spongebob legos on clearance at over 10+ targets but I left those alone since they are not even worth the time or effort even at 50% off. 3x Jek-14 Stealth Starfighters (only one i paid retail since it shouldnt have been on the shelfs to begin with which stuck me as odd) 2x Lone ranger Train ($49.99 each) 13x Uruk Hai Army Set ($20.48 each) 4x Shelob hobbit set ($20.48 each) 3x Z-95 Headhunter ($20.99) 1x Battle Quin Jet ($47.00) x3 Batman 6864 ($24.99) x4 76001 ($19.99) Let me know what you guys think of my haul .. any sets in here that I should return or should I keep it all? thanks!
July 21, 201312 yr Picked up several retired impulse/polybag sets for my personal collection including Adventurers 5902 from awhile ago, and Toy Story 30070 and Atlantis 30042 (I know, zero investment potential, but I'm a sucker for ROV-like vehicles and three-eyed squeeky toys). In addition to the little sets, I scored 3 roadplate sets for the HKD equivalent of about $13 Canadian. A miniscule haul in this thread, but I am pretty satisfied. Some nice scores here, keep it up 'pickers
July 21, 201312 yr today I got 5766 log cabin 7346 seaside cabin 9678 twin pod cloud car x2 for free 9496 desert skiff 75000 clone troopers v drodikeas battle pack 9498 clone troopers v commando droid battle pack 31009 small house it cost me
July 21, 201312 yr Picked up 15 Captain America Cycles at Wal-Mart. They were all full retail but they are nonexistent in my parts.
July 21, 201312 yr I just grabbed a Haunted House off of Amazon Warehouse for $155. I'm expecting the box to be damaged but I'm buying it to build. Add the $80 worth of Amazon card points and I paid $75 out of pocket. Plus I'll get 3% back on the whole $155 since I'm applying the points to my card balance.
July 22, 201312 yr FriendsIce Cream StandSummer PicnicAlready had these from before but seeing how they've been sitting there for a while, I figured what the heck.Olivia's Invention WorkshopFound a lone one behind a bunch of Olivia's Speedboat. Box condition is okay and I have no idea how this of all things got there but I'm not one to look a gift horse in the mouth. Also paid just $4!GamesThe HobbitBought this for half off at $17.48. It was the only thing at Target for 50% currently. Great parts set for that much and glad I held out on the discount.Star WarsRepublic Troopers vs Sith TroopersGot my second one for $10 straight. Wouldn't mind seeing these hitting closer to half off.Yoda ChroniclesFinally got my hands on this book and price matched with Amazon for $12 and something cents. The minifigure is cool but the book is just so-so.To end, I bought even more extra minifigures from Series 10. Jeeze louis, this last series has really sapped my wallet!
July 22, 201312 yr nothing to write home about, but I was able to snag 3 swamp creatures for $1.75/each after tax. shopko had them on clearance for $4.99, but I stacked with a $10 coupon which brought them down to $1.75. I had to purchase a couple of other items to get my total over $50 to use the coupon, but I was buying those items anyway so not a big deal. I don't usually like such small sets because you will never sell at a large sum, but with an entry point so low I'll take it.

July 22, 201312 yr That's a good deal. now how much are you to sell them for if I was to list them now I would probably just start them at what I paid ($1.75) and let them go from there. retail is $7, so I wouldn't expect to get much more than that right now. in 2-3 years around halloween when they are a little more scarce I would be happy with $15-$20 each, but would be very surprised if they went higher than that.
July 22, 201312 yr Nice find. I would have purchased that within seconds given the opportunity, which is what I'm sure you did. Got my two shuttle sets today , one suffered minor damage due to shipping . All in all score! Seller didn't even hold off on shipping times. :)
