I know it's harder to do but set names rather than numbers would be better. I don't remember every set number. Ty

10240 X-Wing for 319€. 100% profit in 8 months.

75054 AT-AT for $155. 50% profit in about a month. I feel like this set will get a reissue for Rogue One. If I'm wrong I'll take my lumps.

Hey Vinetu, just wondering what platform did you use to sell it?

Rogue One AT-ATs wouldn't look exactly like the OT version anyway. Variants make more toy money. 

UCS "Attack on Hoth" is the question for 75054; does it include AT-AT(s)?

Either way, that's a good price. I would also take $150 cash for mine.

Is the ucs 75054 confirmed? I'd like to get my paws on one

Christmas Train for €38 shipped locally, this is the promo which keeps on giving. Wish I'd bought more from Lego during the promo now.

40138 + 40139 (Christmas train + Gingerbread House) together for €40, excluding shipping. By putting the shipping at €10 (within The Netherlands) I covered the eBay and PayPal fees to get a nett worth of €20 for each set. Unfortunately people in The Netherlands aren't as willing to pay lots of €€€ for these free promo sets as they are apparently in Ireland or the UK. The going rate for both sets on Marktplaats.nl is still around €20-€25 tops.

Cool, was that on ebay? I think I sold all mine at €33.50 shipped. I only ship items over €20 tracked, so my shipping is a little pricey compared to UK sellers.

Sold another 21110 RI on the bay for €43 plus shipping. Slowly getting through these at 2xRRP now, which is fine.

That was ebay, I don't do tracking on an item that cheap, it's not worth the extra €5. At that price it's better to effectively self insure.

The way I look at it, on a €20 item, I'd need to be scammed or have a problem with shipping once every four sales to be paying the extra for registered post. Even I'm not that unlucky. Even on  €50 item, you're talking one in ten, still not worth it.

Yeah, I was think of upping my cut off for registered post from €20 to €50. I don't sell huge amounts in that price range though. If I had a ton of GBH to get through, I'd sell them by standard post and risk the odd hit. I think I'll drop my shipping for few small sets and see how it goes.

The thing about dropping the shipping is that you then pay the ebay fees on that amount. For example, cheaper to charge €40 with €10 shipping than €45 with €5 shipping.

Most of my sales are to the continent anyway and I use couriers for anything over 2kg, so covered by their insurance.

Does eBay charge differently in Europe than in the US? Because I pay "Final Value Fees" on the sale price as well as on the shipping (they actually come through as 2 different charges). So there is no difference between a $50 item with free shipping, a $45 item with $5 shipping and a $40 item with $10 shipping.

Yes, we don't pay ebay fees on shipping costs.

In Germany we do pay ebay fees on shipping costs. As well as paypal fees.

That is weird because that encourages you to list all your items for 1 EUR and just put the difference in the shipping costs. Unless eBay doesn't give you flexibility in setting your own shipping costs of course .....

So this is a weird question perhaps or an observation... Seems to be a whole lot more posts about what Lego set was bought, and significantly less about what is sold. Seems that the majority of us are buying a whole lot more often than selling. Mods feel free to move this to the bubble thread of more appropriate.

I can only speak for myself, but I spent Nov-Dec selling and now I am hitting the clearance and only buying. I have found that selling falls off a cliff once the holidays pass.

I'll get the party started...

I sold my last Lone Ranger Constitution Train Chase for $115 shipped on eBay!
