Now its sold out at amazon.de too! Just tried to order another 2 sets [emoji16]. Seems to be that this were just the last few items or backorders that amazon had in stock. Awesome that I got my 2 sets before. For this price the set will never come back!

And in The Netherlands it is still available at Wehkamp, for €104 (+shipping) thanks to their Disney sale:

 

About the Wehkamp deal:

- I just got two more ISD's. After that, according to their administration, there were at least another nine in stock.

- They will probably be sent in a box. Smaller items are sent in plastic bags. Anyway I won't expect mint quality.

- I used the 'kerst' coupon code. This will provide a discount of € 7,50. Effectively, this more than compensates for the € 5,95 shipping costs. Before using the code, check the total amount. Clicking 'use coupon' will lower that total amount by € 7,50 (evenly spread over all purchased items). 

- The 'kerst' code is only valid until the 20th of December 2015 and minimum amount to be spent is € 40,-. See here: http://www.wehkamp.nl/specials/kortingscode/

I already received my two ISDs. Packaged separately in well fitting boxes, and in pristine quality! Excellent!

Too bad I didn't know about the 'kerst' code. Would have saved me a few more Euro. Oh well...

Yesterday their price at Wehkamp was 104 Euro but today 109,99 Euro.....

 

Currently available at amazon.de for 104,19€.

Poof!

I just got lucky and found 3 more from a local Walmart.  Ordered one online to pickup later.  After picking it up, I walked through the Lego section that was in shambles and in the back of the bottom shelf, there were two more, so I picked them up as well.  Boxes aren't in the best shape, but I was planning on building one of them for my own collection.  I think my area is picked clean now.

One ISD available at Het Deense Steentje, for €109. Plus S&H it becomes €114,95:

(in case someone's still interested...)

----------------------------------------------

But ... seriously ... WTF ??? This webshop internet-toys.com is really going overboard with their 'market based' RRP, and then offering a discount on it to look like they're offering a bargain! 

Nice info, I sneaked in and got one more just then. Strike while the iron is hot, nevver stare a gift horse in the mouth etc

They are still listed at €104 but won't add to my basket, one per customer maybe?

Walmart.com has you one up.  "Reduced Price" at $209 +$18 shipping.  sold by toywiz but how many buyers will notice that detail in the little print at the bottom...

I really think walmart is going to shoot them selves in the foot with they way they do 3rd party selling.

 

that being said there is one sitting on the shelf at the walmart down the street for RRP+tax, tempting me.  Not sure how that store is still stocked with LEGO while every target around it is bare...

Yay! Sold out at Wehkamp.nl. That means the cheapest price it is still sold for in The Netherlands is now €129,99. Slowly but surely stock is running out at webshops.  

I was at walmart yesterday and saw a shelf full. I'm really wondering why this set doesn't really seem to get the love.

No, between Christmas and some other stuff, just no $$ to throw into it. Hoping that it makes it to clearance.

It's done. I highly doubt they'll be around to clearance out.

Hi,

Could you tell me if this set is sold out only and will be more after chrismas or is retired completely? I'm from europe.

Thanks

This is a link to the 75055 ISD on the Lego Web Shop, Spanish site: http://shop.lego.com/en-ES/Imperial-Star-Destroyer-75055?p=75055

What does it say there...

Sorry, it's gone and it won't come back, except some time in the future, most likely, as a remake. But when, that's everyone's guess...

I reckon they'll replace it with that new first order star destroyer.

It took me a long time to get the 114.99 for pickup price to show on my tablet when I bought one today at walmart. I was having to deal with that stupid Toywiz.

Starting to appreciate nicely now the QFLL´s are running out of stock.

jup, followin it as well, around 180 on ebay here.

In the US, it seems that the ISD has surpassed the AT-AT in their pre-retirement / post clearance / Sold out everywhere phase.

The AT-AT jumped out of the gate first and was gone, likely due to the fact it was actually marked Retired in Europe, wheras the ISD was not yet. (I see now that LEGO Shop at Home Europe has marked it retired.).

Many in the US started to say that the At-At was the superior investment since it was rising in price faster. I think that was fallacy based on the quick price rise.

The ISD is bigger, heavier, better figures, and is the best System Scale ISD produced.

The AT-AT is also iconic, but is a much lighter set, repetitive build (matters to some), and the set has been made more times than the System scale ISD. Further, there's already a system scale WALKING AT-AT that is far superior. 

I fear both are due for remakes or EP 7 versions, but the question will be which first, and how similar will they be?

Both are also likely for UCS versions. The ATAT i imagine would be OT style, the ISD i suspect they would model after the EP7 FInalizer. 

Lots of interesting things to think about for sure. I like both sets, but i think the ISD is the better investment whether bought at retail or discount.

Right before Christmas I sold one for $175. It was pretty much the same profit amount, but a lower percentage than the AT-AT that I was selling at $155. They were all quick flips. I haven't listed a Star Destroyer since then, but I sold an AT-AT yesterday to a family who had a 5 year old that really wanted one. I think that the interaction with other figures/playsets/small vehicles are what drive more people to the AT-AT. The AT-AT likely has a lower ceiling, just because it has been made so often. It'll be a toss up as to whether the faster selling lower cost set is a better long term investment than the larger, more expensive set.

ISD retired first in Europe, actually. THere are still quite  few QFLL´s (and shops) still selling AT AT´s below RRP here but ISD is now on the up.
