make sure you figure up what an inventory of all 29.99 rovers would have been, and if it was allowed i still would be at the top =P Elim

    This is awesome. What a trip down memory lane. This contest was fun. We should do it again. I chose Jabba’s Palace & Daily Bugles. Looking at eBay sold listings it looks like I picked a couple o

Yes, I am that unlucky soul. I picked the Studio thinking I could see it being a $500 set in 6 months time...then a week or so later I saw it was coming back in stock. That was not cool.

 

Luckier than me. LOL.

 

Hope 76000 goes EOL. =)

Here are a few more stats:

The top set had a 46% price jump from Feb to March.  Unfortunately for most they didn't have any in their portfolio.  There was only 1 lucky/savvy person and that was MartinP who had 1 set.  MartinP had a Tractor set as well and along with Quacs who had 3 was the only ones with those.

That is awesome! I didn't think that the Dino HQ would go up that much so fast. I was thinking that it would be worth around $300, by the time the game was over. Now, all the other sets in my portfolio have to see some significant increases.

I'm curious to see how the S@H May 4th sale will impact the going rate of the Desert Skiff. The Batwing is picking up steam too.

I don't think it lasted long enough to have much of an impact.

I agree.  And many that were sold in that short span were eventually cancelled.

New results are in!

The April and May price guide updates happened simultaneously so we have a 2 month gap from our last update.  Only one more month to go before the contest ends!

 

IAmElim with his 28 x Wolverine Chopper has taken over top spot after the dip in price for Desert Skiff pushed jojoyojimbi and Mos_Eisley down the rankings a bit.  Starpod and Busch97racing are a little ways back in 2nd and 3rd with their heavy portfolio of 5 x Unimog.

 

The biggest mover since the March update in the positive direction is njseale up 35 places from 78th to 43rd.  On the slide side we have tdw down 27 spots from 40th to 67th.

I have a feeling I would have a shot if the contest went a month or two longer, but my timing for my strategy looks to be off a bit.

 

Congrats to IAmElim taking the top spot. If you had not done the #6866 maxout that was the strategy I was going to use. (along with being the one I thought would most likely win.)

Ooo, I'm up to 52 now. Doubtful to reach near first place with one month to go but I would be happy to finish in the Top 25 or even 30.

Thanks! I should have managed my real life as I played this virtual game and bought more 6866! But in real life, it's much riskier to put all eggs in the same basket...

One month left. It's not over until it's over!

 

Just to make sure, what's the grand prize of this? 10179?

Glad to move up to 15th and I own the actual sets, along with a Mars Rover or two.... ;-)

This game must be rigged by the organiser, there is no way I should be that low!  Shenanigans!

The goal of the game is to be at the bottom of the list right?

 

Yeah... I was trying to set the example of how NOT to invest.  Damn stupid rules!

Here's some more stats:

 

Movements from the last price updates:

Interesting that the two recent Minecraft releases appear on both lists.  The entry by flyforawhiteguy contained 9 Nethers and 10 Villages, thus almost cancelling each other out.

 

Most of the other sets were held in low numbers by only 1 or 2 entrants.

What I meant to say with mine was, I want all of mine to be Burj Khalifa's... Too late to change?  :negative:
