Nah. I have more fallingwaters, and by the time is said and done they will bring in 140 to 200% profit. I think the Tower Bridge will do fine. Even if it doubles, i'll have turned 80 into 450 in a few years time.
August 11, 20169 yr 3 of my 4 Star Wars Phantoms for $75 CDN each in the last few weeks. Doubled my money on these after only 4 months. Raised the price on the last one by $10. One Olaf polybag for $20. Paid $5 and will make $15 profit after fees and shipping and shipping credit. Let it go, let it go........ Also sold my only 7848 Toys R Us Truck yesterday for $135 CDN. Paid $45 3 years ago. I was debating whether or not to open this now that my modular/city display is growing. Might have to buy the open and used one from my son's friend now. I can afford a fair used price after selling the new one for 3 times what I paid. All Amazon.ca Edited August 11, 20169 yr by jeff_14

August 16, 20169 yr I capitulated and sold my one of two 10188 sets today. Local buyer for $620 CAD. Not a big profit, but my buy in was low and all this talk of the new set being a rehash of 10188 spooked me. I started off just into building and collecting....but the buying part became fun and addictive due to the hunt for deals lol. I'm undecided about opening and build my last 10188. I honestly think the set is mediocre.
August 16, 20169 yr Finally a 853373 Kingdoms Chess sets for £80. I've been trying to get rid of this for a year. This set has been a disappointment in terms of resaleability. Do I buy any of the Pirates chess sets?
August 16, 20169 yr Atlantis Guardian of the Deep $8. Part of a big used lot I bought. Edited August 16, 20169 yr by TigerEyez

This set has been a disappointment in terms of resaleability. Do I buy any of the Pirates chess sets? Jammy sod! I sold my last 2 Kingdoms Chess sets at a small loss once postage and fees are taken into account. I wish I sold them 2 years ago when they were worth more. Pirates chess sets? No way for me unless >50% off ;-) To be honest, I've not paid over half RRP for anything recently.
August 16, 20169 yr I got lucky really, and randomly noticed about 12 months ago that the going price on Amazon was like £115, I didn't buy many, think I had 4, but unloaded them all then and there. I have bought 5 Pirate chess sets though just in case a similar trend happens. If it doesn't its one of those things.
August 16, 20169 yr I wish I bought more kingdoms chess sets. The have been going for $150 on Amazon consitintly. If the pirate set retired last year when the rest of the line did I would have high hopes for it but I'm questioning it now
August 16, 20169 yr I've just done a price check on 40158 Pirates Chess Ebay BIN price is £40-55 but it seems to be a VERY slow seller. So I may give it a miss, plenty of other sets at that price point that are more popular. Getting back on topic, todays vintage sales are: 6880-1 [Surface Explorer (1982)] £16 6881-1 [Lunar Rocket Launcher (1984)] £15 6842-1 [Small Space Shuttle Craft (1981)] £5 6824-1 [Space Dart I (1984)] £9 6844-1 [Sismobile (1983)] £7

Do I buy any of the Pirates chess sets?Me? I wouldn't. That set has been on sale on LEGO Shop at Home for something like 6 months now. It is not moving at all, imo. I'd avoid.
