Since we have the buying thread, I thought we could have a selling thread too. Let guys, and girls, let others know sets they have moved, maybe returns that they realized and the timeframe it took to get there. If this is lame, well, I guess it will fall to the depths of the forum, here goes. Sold a sealed 7199 IJ Temple of Doom for $200, purchased for $115 6 months ago I have others, but this is just to give you an idea.

I guess it depends on whether you think they will hit EOL before Christmas? If you do, hold out because you should make a tidy profit.

I got half of the DCs at Argos for

4626 For $20+ shipping. Got it for $7.50 at Stop & Shop.

Sold a 79111 Lone Ranger Constitution Train Chase this afternoon.

Sold some more Wolverine Chopper Showdowns (6866).  I had to bump up the price a little bit more, so I don't sell out of my stock too quick.

Harry Potter the burrow.   Used with all parts and instructions.  Last complete set from bulk lot.

Sold another TC-4 droid this evening.

7747 wind turbine transport and 4204 mining truck. Both new and sealed. $115 total. Craigslist deal so no fees. Cleared $60 profit.

Sold a 3368 City Space Center Again!!! In less than 24 hours.

 

I have one left and I wonder if I should keep this one for later. What do you guys think?

Sell...what nonsense do you speak of?

 

Wait, that makes sense, buy - wait - sell - repeat....I knew I was missing something.

Finally moved my last Ninjago Samurai Mech. Broke even on it.

I haven't started selling mine yet.

Lol Samurai Mech is still readily available at MSRP.  Definately one of my busts   The set is cool when built but noone seems to care about it

 

I even spot it in TLM (on the left TV monitor towards the end)

I know, I bought several for $17 and I'd like for them to hit at least $40 before selling.

I can only think of a handful of "winners" in the Ninjago line and the samurai mech isn't one of them.

Yeah Ninjago line is a dud... Everyone should stay out of it..

Sold a 4208 CITY 4X4 FIRE TRUCK plus a KREO TRANFORMERS OPTIMUS PRIME #30689 I got for 75% off at B&****** way back.

Sold a few more Wolverine's Chopper Showdown (6866) this week.  I keep raising the price and they keep selling.

I need to get on this as well.  They seem to sell consistently 55-65.....not bad for a 12-15 buy-in.

Really? Wasn't like every set that retired in the Ninjago line a winner besides the Samurai Mech? And it only just retired.

 

I have a few waiting. No one has cleared out of stock so it may go up once its actually gone. I honestly think WHEN a set retires makes a big deal too.

 

If the set retires when its actually OOS, then I think it becomes a little more sought after just because it gives the appearance it was rarer than it actually was. But I don't know. Maybe the bad sets linger because they are bad.

 

I just think about something like the Batcave. Its a winner. But if it retired today while they were still all over shelves, it might not shoot up as fast. Of course they might just fly off the shelves from the people panicking. lol.

Me too - sold 2 in the last couple of weeks.

If you piece them out you will get like 75-85. I did that for the few I was able to find a local hobby shop for $25 each. Not sure what the prices are now for the minifigs but just something to think of. They sold fast when I listed them. I was suprised the motorcyle alone sold for $7 each and extra claws $5 each.

Wonder if that will work for The Ridler Chase set in a couple years.

No doubt as long as flash stays exclusive to this set and he was also in the movie for a minute or two. I think this set will do well eol.but that's a ways from now

The set is also $10 more than the Wolvie/Deadpool set.  If you ever have a chance to get them for under $20, snatch them up.
