Who wants to buy the NY Stock Exchange?

[Jeff Mack]

It would be really nice if one of you could buy Ed and myself this....

[Jojoyojimbi]

it's a bargain, less than ten cents a brick

It's $16,000 and has 23,261 pieces.  I am not sure if your math is correct

The creativity of some just amazes me. I really like how they captured the sculptures of the people.

I think it's correct. From my calculations, it's under $0.07 per brick. I saw this while looking for some other sets, and I have to say that it's impressive. Only if I had the money to buy it.

If it was 0.07 per brick, it would be $1628.27.

 

If it was 0.688 per brick, it would be $16003.57.

Ok, I guess maybe I am doing the equation incorrectly.   I am dividing 16,000 / 23,261 = .687= .$.69 per brick?   Am I doing the math wrong?

That's why I said under $0.07, not exactly. That's still a good ratio for the most part.

Isn't it .68 cents per brick?

[Jeff Mack]

Ok, special note to self.  Make sure joyjoy and MartinP don't do any math things for the site

I think I did the math wrong. I guess this is what happens in the summer when you forget how to do the simplest math problems.

Wait until you're my age (38)... plenty of simple things will be beyond your reach.

[El Guapo]

Wow that is pretty impressive.  I checked this guys sold listings...he sells a TON of the instructions for the base of the statue of liberty at $65 a pop.  Good for him!  It also gives me hope and puts into perspective how many big time lego AFOLS are out there that are buying these things!

[knarrff]

Now, _that_ would be an amazing price - less than one cent per brick ...

[TheBrickClique]

Boo. It's been kragl'd.

[Silburned]

Boo. It's been kragl'd.

 

That's no match for the polish of Na'il.

[rastascoob]

He's sold 3 Statue of Liberty bases for about $1800 a pop as well.

You are right.  It's the price of the set divided by the piece count......not the other way around.

May have to work out a trade for some of those SSDs and other big sets you have...

[DoNotInsertIntoMouth]

I've heard there is a bubble growing with the New York Stock Exchange though - not sure you would want a sculpture of that.
