Hi guys,

New to this Lego Investing thing. This is the first one I bought as it ticked a few boxes for me. Licence running out, unlikely to have a better set made (unlike DS rumoured to have a better one), impressive display value etc.

 

When would you think is the best time to sell these? This coming Xmas? Next Xmas?

All depends on the opportunity cost of one's money or even the storage space at certain time so the best timing for each individual may be different. The price may keep going up in 5-10 years or even longer. It all depends on all aspects (cost, age, stability of other things in your life, liquidity...) of your investment strategy.

Available again at US Shop!

But gone again! expected to ship 25th Oct. Looks like the only place it's selling is in the US.

Back to sold out status but very poor performance from the US horde. What took you so long?

Retired product now.

Still showing just "Sold Out" here in the states...

That's a good sign though, which means it's going to retire in the stats VERY VERY soon. Stock up ladies and gents!

It´s been retired here since early August....

How long did that take to retire in the US after it retired in EU?

Who's the mole?

about a year IIRC. Obviously it wasn't doing "the dance" and everyone , myself included, expected TOO to be done . Point was Europe doesn't always indicate US market behavior . 

I agree, we have seen that with SSD, Hobbit, Exo and EEE among others. Still, it´s a useful advance warning system when it works in your favour.

Patience, this one is on it´s last legs. The licence is probably done this year too.

Gone.

I can still order it...I choose not to!

Maybe 9 left?

don't cancel based on what I said . I was warning against correlating the two markets in general not about this specific set .

And back to SOLD OUT again, SAH. By tomorrow it should be done for good.
