Helping out a good friend who just got into modulars hard. Selling him a sealed Town Hall for $500 which I feel is a fair price for him and me although it pains me to think about the loss of potential future gains.

Reinvest that $500 properly and you can make better future gains. And you get good karma for helping a friend. We call that a twofer!

That's a good way to look at the situation. Thanks for the perspective. 

Finally got rid of my last Kai Drifter polybag that I got with promos this time last year... $9. 

Recently sold a pair of Mr. Freeze at $20 each, two May 4th Stormies at $20 each, a 7144 Slave 1 (missing Bobba) for $65, and a complete 6195 Neptune Discovery Lab for $150. 

Promo $0 polys obviously, and the two sets cost me maybe $20 in replacement parts buy-in, originally from personal collection. Puts a nice chunk towards a Big Ben purchase I think! 

All prices including shipping. Was quite pleased with the last one as it went for nearly $50 more than brickpicker or bricklink's price guides! 

2 x Azari's Magic Fire €10 cash (free SAH promo)

Double-Decker Couch 70818 €40 shipped (buy in €11.50)

My 99th and 100th sales in just over a year 

This reselling is a great lark altogether

With new Exosuits listed at $33, and very few "used complete" sets being offered... if you're selling and you haven't built one yet, you might as well unbox it, and build it for fun. Let it hang out on your desk for a couple weeks... pose it... have a little fun with it... then box it back up again and sell it.  Your opportunity cost making it "used" vs. new is about $3.

Sold one 4431 Ambulance for about 40€ I bought this set because there is no ambulance in the current City lineup. It has nice minifigs, but there's quite a lot of stickers in this set.

9472  Attack on Weathertop NIB and 9473 The Mines of Moria NIB

Sold 2 NISB 21109 ExoSuits on eBay $33 ea, free shipping (wrapped in shipping paper only - per my listing - shipped 1st class at 15.5 oz).  Lucky for me, when I first bought them, I was just starting out, and I only bought a couple.  One of my first Brickpicker "hot tip" buys, about 97 weeks in inventory, now pretty much break-even on the sale (only because I used about $20 in VIP points to buy on one of them). Still, the feeling of having no more 21109 in inventory ... priceless

I have this feeling there was about $100 in mental labor for this transaction.

Sold 2 sets of Series 8 Mixels for $103 shipped on Amazon

Sold one of my 75055 ISD (MISB) through Marktplaats for €175 cash in hand. Buy-in was €107.

(And selling for nett €175 on Marktplaats is about the same as selling for €200 through eBay. Plus they come to pick it up at my door, so I don't have to worry about sending the parcel and getting it damaged along the way. )
