I don't think so.  Two years out for retirement.  There's a lot of Costco stuff that has taken awhile to appreciate.  Lot of storage and funds tied up in the meantime.

"If" I had the room I may have gone in but this has been a big buying season and my warehouse is pretty maxed out.

yea i agree. i bought out the dreamzzz stablezzz which i thought was a sick buy at $20, 75% off, but they are big boxes and only going for $50 on amazon so after large FBA fees, i probably only made 10$ each. They did sell insanely fast tho. 30 in 1.5 hours

hey, nothing wrong with a quick flip!  I considered it with some of the stuff but I'm not really geared up for that.

Looks are kinda funny to think about.  I feel these people looking at me and them wanting to say something "funny" but I never even look their way. You can tell they are just on the edge of making some comment if they could just make eye contact, lol.

Exactly! I whipped out my phone while waiting online and did not alter my gaze for a second. I heard kids talking to their parents etc...

Headphones are a perfect way to avoid unwanted interactions after you've had to respond to the same "wow, that's a lot of LEGO" comment for the millionth time.

I did NOT buy any of the several January 1st Sets Walmart Employees were FRANTICALLY pulling OFF the shelves when I was in a store yesterday afternoon. lol. Bunch of space stuff, some Friends stuff, couple Minecraft sets... Was pretty funny to see in real time action though. Not sure how I feel about the new boxes, but I think I like them.
