it is fetching $200 now on ebay.

 

 

however,

20 fee, 20 shipping.

No profit if you bought at msrp and paid tax.

I would like to enjoy one hell of a Sept-Dec selling period first  

I sent my brother to pick up 4 more GE from the LEGO store in Kansas City.  I called and the guy said they had 7 in stock.  I am leaving 3, not sure why.

The Trains are going to be continuation theme............. (new Cargo train and new High Speed Passenger train).

I think we will see very small margin for these 2 sets.

It's not retired until it is says retired... and even then TRU could do something funny..

I don't remember what happened with FB, but I thought that it was basically available everywhere up until the last minute then poof!

GE has seemed to be OOS at all the major retailers for a while now. Maybe showing up here and there on their websites but not very often. Amazon seems to have never really restocked and same with TRU and Target.

So what do you guys think? Any resemblance to what happened with FB for those that remember?

I think with FB, there was actual "retiring soon" tag...

I would love to see Lego release a new modular this summer (like PR last yr) and than officially list GE as retired in the coming months. 

 

Once GE is gone...I guess someone will create a new topic, 'Pet Shop - Gotta retire sometime' and cycle continues.

In-store, but I'm not sure about S@H.

In-store, but I'm not sure about LEGO Shop at Home.

In-store as in massively almost everywhere, or as in "someone on Reddit mentioned that he saw it"?

I'm pretty sure folks posted here saying they saw "Retiring Soon" tags.  Reddit is where the truth really lies.  (Wow, that is profound, I must say)

Any Information about availability of GE in the store in Frankfurt? Or generally in lego stores in Germany?

I saw the "Retiring Soon" placard on the Fire Brigade shelf at the Glendale Lego Store just before the mad rush to get them. It was the first time I'd seen confirmation of its imminent demise.

Raleigh Lego store still has some. They still have the free balloon poly with purchase too. 

If any Chicago BPers are reading this I just called the discovery center in Schaumburg.  They had 2 on the shelf there the other day and I called to see if they are still there and she said "oh yeah we have plenty".  So I'm going to swing in and get 2 or 3, sounds like there will be leftovers after that.  Get 10% off if you get the annual pass, at $40 it pays for itself quick.
