February 2016 Polybag Availability Update

Original Post:

Sorry if there's a post like this already. I searched but polybag comes up in so many threads its hard to see! I was thinking of getting polybags to sell. I'm not really looking for huge profit, mostly it seemed like a good idea for building up my eBay feedback. So I don't need to be super profitable but of course I don't want to lose money with shipping, etc. How do you know what bags will do well (obviously like anything theres no sure thing but any idea what does decent vs what js pretty much always a flop). They are hard to search for since they are random. How long do they usually last? Is there any general tips you could give?

If I can some of these imported to US is there interest on here? I know in the past people have tried for group distribution on non-US stuff

Definitely would be interested.

great

Obviously buying 1-2 at at time from Hamleys or Bricklink is cost prohibitive with shipping.

I hope to get about 30 of these to me in the US. I need to cover cost + shipping over to US and then get that price but I expect these to be much less then $20, shooting for $12-14 territory

Will keep posted

I would be interested 

General Consensus: A LOT of us would be interested.  Best to corner the market, @Elkkthunder

Haven’t seen these yet.

All but that water plane has shown up at LEGOLAND California.

Looking at the title of this thread and my backlog of pics reminds me I’m overdue in writing a new article and setting up a 2018 thread.

Oh well. This still works

I wouldn’t mind a new thread
Or maybe a more general “new poly bags” or “look at what I just found in a bag”
Or “here’s where you can find it”

A little off topic but does anyone know where to get the supergirl poly for less than $35?  Still need to add her to my collection.

Nope. Only an uninformed reseller.

Got them. Wife took pic. Need to figure out final cost

Sweet.  Did u make a list of those that requested   i did say metoo at the time!  

Building the hamley U.K. Royal guard list. This is people that's said interested or messsaged. If you replied and it wasn't a firm I am interested you may not be on this list.

i need to see if I have enough padded envelopes around or that may bump cost. More to come tomorrow after sorting out envelopes.

I'll find the message and get you one mate, no problem. 

Thx!   My tower bridge will have the appropriate security!

Sweet, let me know what info you need from me. Thanks!

To be 100% Transparent, all said and done for the 30 with cost, currency exchange on credit card and shipping to US I am in these at roughly $10 each.

 It seems padded envelope, USPS First Class 1-3 ounces through paypal is $2.61.

I have padded envelopes (amazon leftovers) so no cost.

I would like to make a trivial amount for time and effort. 

With paypal as goods and services (with fees) at $15.36 shipped to you, I would make $2 after fees. 

If you paypal as friend/family the cost would be $14.61, again I would make $2

For now I will sell 20 of these. 

I think it would be easy if you message me and I can reply with my email to send paypal, unless you have other thoughts

Thanks
