I agree, all he has proved is that there are a limited number of "valued customers" out there who apparently don´t know that Amazon Uk / Asda or Tesco exist and are happy to contribute to the @TabbyBoy pension scheme instead.

By the way, if you want to participate in a little investment prediction game based on RRP, send me a PM and I´ll give you details. Only 4 places left. Free-to-play and no prizes as it is a beta test.

Sometimes I come across an affluent parent who will pay RRP to get the item now.

I now need to sell the effluent to the affluent - the R5!

The total sale was for $210 with a profit of $91

1 Artic base camp 60036, £89.99 ebay brought for £49.99,

35% profit in less than a year happy with that, one of the first sets I brought.

11x 10240 Red 5 X-Wing for £2000 cash - they are disappearing fast. No more PMs please as I only have enough now for the BP members who've asked me for some - sorry.

You just watch the bar stewards reach £300 next week! ;-(

So it looks like I'll make just enough on the pallet of Red 5 X-Wings to pay for lunch on the way back from the warehouse! At least it's not a loss as first feared.

Not bad for a CITY set. £15ish after tax? I've also got a few of those Supply Planes that I keep meaning to sell, I'll stick them on this week.

Agree with you. 

I still have 4 to sell. Will keep at least one. 

Yeah... I hold the Pet Shops for 2 years, and sell them at break-even, and I'm grateful... thankful that I found buyers who will take them at that price.  Sell a couple Arkham Asylums after 2 years for 70% net profit, and I feel like I'm being taken advantage of.

Your sold posts are like an excel spreadsheet of mine =X*1.5

I honestly think you could make a business just selling for other people now that amazon is gated for Lego.

75146 Star Wars Advent calendar.  Sold for no profit through a Facebook posting, but very happy anyway because I do not have to eat this one (Lego bricks are not crunchy in milk at all no matter how long you keep them there).  Sold to a father for his sons.  I do have one for my kids though and they love snow suit Chewbacca!  

This particular Star Wars set has been a TURD for me and it seems the only one in the past few years that has been a winner is 75056 that has the very lucrative Darth Vader Santa suit minifig and a few other small winners in the set.
 

next set of truds are going to be brick boxes. have you noticed prices of 10697 and number of sellers its close to 500 now

This one will be a wonderful performer next year after I get a bunch for $20 after Christmas, as I did with last years and sold this year ~$60.

But yes, these were absolute duds for QFing this year.  I made ~$13 per City Advent this year flipping them after getting them from TRU during 20% + TRUTH.

It performs much better when you let it go as a gift.

500??? Yowza!  I noticed those $49 1500 brick boxes at TRU don't seem to be selling this week either.

Sales over the last week in FBA:

2x 851341 elves playmat $38.95 each
1x 851341 elves playmat $44.99 (got these for $7.49 each and wish I would have gotten more, especially when they were clearanced even further at $3.74)
3x 10695 creative box at $41.99 each
2x 10695 creative box at $39.99 each
10671 Juniors Fire Emergency at $69.99 each (paid $9.98 at target clearance)
60048 City Police Dog Unit at $69.75 each (paid average of $20 each at Walmart)
40222 Christmas Build Up at $34.99 each (free promo)
75000 Star Wars Clone Troopers vs. Droidekas at $38.89 each (paid $13 after EOL)
75054 Stat Wars At-At at $260 each (paid $90 for it and I made a mistake with pricing it and didn't get a chance to fix it before it sold, kind of salty about it but it is what it is)

Surprisingly the brick boxes seem to sell for a higher price any other time outside of the Christmas season.  What?!?
