by heavy you mean like to much over?

Curse Marty McFly, yes with heavy I mean too much over. But again, depends from person to person. I'm sure plenty of people here will tell you to buy it and  you'll have a nice return from it... and they're right about the return.... No investor has (thankfully) the same principles or priorities. For investment purposes, my principle is, don't go over MSRP. If that means I'll miss out on a  great set... too bad... plenty of other great sets out there

As Neosphinx stated, it's all a matter of your taste. I for example, bought a bit over a year ago a BNIB mint 10185 for 550

TH has officially retired?

No. Still sold out for LS&**** us and still marked "Hard to Find".

Not in the USA.

Must have been a typo of M4x18. Not officially retired yet.

Yeah, what I meant is 'No longer available from LEGO Shop at Home' EU, my bad.

Also since it has just retired, you could gamble and look around for it a bit more, not for too long though.

 

Sold Out doesn't constitute retired. Exo Suits status was set to Sold Out during most of August and look what happened there.

Yes, I rewrote that post above. Right now it should read 'it is no longer available to purchase from LEGO Shop at Home EU altough it could be a temporary thing as it could always come back' instead.

I figured it might be a typo because if it did officially retire, I'm sure this thread would explode!

Inside information for Dutch investors: Intertoys will have a 15% discount on the entire Lego collection next weekend or one weekend later. Hope their inventory Town Hall will last till that moment. It is the same issue with the SSD in September: Discounted for 320 euro in September, quickly sold out and then a few days later also the 15% discount.. man, what would I love to have SSD's for 272 euro back then :-)

I'm sorry Marcel.. I only know this for Holland. A friend of mine is manager at Intertoys.nl, I will see him this week and I will ask him about the precise date and also what the case is for Germany. I will let you guys know of course, so we can buy it all and start a completely overpriced TH-market with our created cartel agreement ;-)

Keep the faith. 

I think this will be a 'Black Swan Event'. Highly improbable, totally unexpected and its impact will be huge.. they can be negative but as well be positive. This is a positive Black Swan and I'm all-in with such a chance, perhaps better lose some bucks than forgoing such an opportunity and regretting you didn't buy more.

I guess this isn't availbale at retail anywhere in the uk or us online?

I think latest for sale at retail in US was on 10/23 so we are 4 days out but there is a lot of time left for more to pop up.  Imagine it goes back to available again somewhere before gone.  Hope it doesn't.

Even though I think it won't be gone till next year, I stocked up a few just incase. Don't want to be caught with my pants down.

Would be stupid thing of Lego to put it back to available for a long time (few days).. imagine all the returns they will get to handle. Will cost them a lot of money and effort, doesn't make sense. I think there will be some people on this forum that will need a lorry for their returns lol.
