Alpinemaps Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 My jaw was already on the floor. Then you had to say Grand Carousel. Yeah, I'd have paid $1200 for all this no problem! Congrats! Quote

DoNotInsertIntoMouth Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 Totally looks like you robbed a storage unit there. Even if you paid for it - clearly robbery. lol. 1 Quote

Bold-Arrow Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 can't decide which is better.... $148 for TB, $27 for MKII, or this lot... Damn , I was gonna post the same thing word by word. And congrats on an awesome find. And like alpine , I almost fainted when u added GC to the mix Quote
hepcatpunk Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 Now use some of the profits to buy yourself a new TV, lol. Quote
Migration Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 Wonder if all that is complete. He's got so much equity built into that lot it doesn't really matter. Quote
holleman67 Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 He's got so much equity built into that lot it doesn't really matter. Pun intended? Quote
Alpinemaps Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 This lot by far lol Without a doubt, this lot is the best pickup I've seen in awhile. At least, coming from someone that really enjoys picking up and sorting used lots. Damn , I was gonna post the same thing word by word. And congrats on an awesome find. And like alpine , I almost fainted when u added GC to the mix The GC is, by far, my dream set. This is the set that I remembered being "wow'd" by when I'd see it on display at Legoland California. I was still in my Dark Ages. I thought I'd never pay that much for a Lego set. *sigh* I love picking up bulk lots and sorting through for sets. This would keep me buys for months. It'd be tons of fun. Quote
Jojoyojimbi Posted July 3, 2014 Author Posted July 3, 2014 Now use some of the profits to buy yourself a new TV, lol. hey i've had that TV for a long long time, it's got sentimental value, I've had it since I was in the Marines..... 15yrs ago Quote
comicblast Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 Super nice find! If you plan on selling the TB, feel free to PM me. I'm looking to pick up a used one to build. Quote
johnwray Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 Sweet Jesus. Usually when I find a big lot like this, the instructions are trashed or missing, and everything is in a giant, sticky pile. You scored. 1 Quote
eferna Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 This is clearly a candidate for Find of the year? Quote
nolanfan34 Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 I can't believe someone who would have all of those sets wouldn't understand the value associated with the lot. Crazy. Quote
Jojoyojimbi Posted July 3, 2014 Author Posted July 3, 2014 I can't believe someone who would have all of those sets wouldn't understand the value associated with the lot. Crazy. her original asking price was $3500, my powers of persuasion and bargaining got the final total down to $1220 1 Quote
oneknightr Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 her original asking price was $3500, my powers of persuasion and bargaining got the final total down to $1220 Now that is truly some jedi master haggling skills! I'm curious to know how long she had it listed for. Were you the first one to meet her? Quote
BrickLegacy Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 hey i've had that TV for a long long time, it's got sentimental value, I've had it since I was in the Marines..... 15yrs ago Thank you for your service and thank you for sharing this haul. Quote
beartrapper Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 Was this lot in the DC/Metro area? My GF met someone at the Tyson's lego store over the weekend who had just acquired a large lot with some of the same items included. Quote
