trekgate502 Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Sorry if I got an SSD today from LEGO Shop at Home that did not come in a Lego box, just the SSD box in a ship box, where do I look for the code? On an interesting note, and I am sure the code experts here already know, but my DS 10188 that arrived today the box had a "Production Date:" on it with 140705 and a "Production YYMM:" that had 1407. That was on a lego branded box that the DS was in which was put into a ship box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, two corners of mine were a little dented in and it was shipped from LEGO Shop at Home in a regular cardboard box with air cushions on one side, which explains why only that one edge was dented.

My wife was pregnant with my son, Max, and we were cutting back on expenses and my original voyage into the Land of LEGO Investing was nearing an end. Dropping $800 on two LEGO sets at the time seemed frivolous. It was two years later that I realized LEGO sets were fantastic investments and Jeff and I came up with the idea for this site.

TheDarkness Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 Everything happens for a reason ???? You can't hang your hat on that one It was the same reason I missed out on the UCS Falcon.

imirish11 Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 SSD finally approaching $700 on eBay for new/undamaged units. There is a small cluster of sellers competing at $700, then 2 sellers priced between $700-$800, 5 sellers between $800-$900, and another 3 sellers between $900-$1000. The picture on Amzn is a bit different, higher prices, but with more sellers concentrated between $700-$800. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostDad Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 back to 10221... what does the crystal ball say with regard to its potential and price. it already reached 699. will it get a bump in x-mas time and may be after the new movies are out? i am thinking of selling half of my inventory . Not sure I see the $699, at least not on eBay. Amazon appears to be over that, though I have no idea if they're actually selling at that price. eBay at the moment looks more like $650 - $660 (including shipping; lazy buyers who haven't yet figured out how to change the listing sort order from "Best Match" might occasionally pick one up at $699). It's not an enormous difference from $660 to $699, except to note that the set has not really moved in price over the last few months. The point being, yes, it will move up from here, but I would expect it to do so much, much more slowly. The pattern with most sets (10197, for example) is a quick, nice bump in price right after EOL, and then a slow, steady appreciation from there. If you need to free up space or money, you'd do better selling the SSD's now and picking up something not quite EOL that you can still find occasionally at retail, like GE or the Camper Van. On the other hand, if cash and space are plentiful, I'd rather sit on the SSD's than just about any paper investment (10-year treasuries at 2.5% anyone?).

Bold-Arrow Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 Amazon appears to be over that, though I have no idea if they're actually selling at that price. It has a rank of 19k, so it is moving. athough after fees, that brings the take home on par with ebay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emazers Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 For a set not retired yet its doing very good,when Lego finally puts Retired on there Site then the price will go higher pretty fast. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
