newbie77 Posted November 8, 2014 Posted November 8, 2014 That theory makes sense. The extra stocks also caused some short term fluctuation for eBay prices. I just realized alot of us sellers are really working for eBay the way fees and shipping rates into almost all gains in most cases. Mentioned that some posts ago as well. I hope people listen to valid point. Anyway if these sets keep popping up either way going to impact the appreciation. Short term and/or long term. Quote
newbiecollect Posted November 12, 2014 Posted November 12, 2014 33r2, just received from amazon Quote
johnwray Posted November 12, 2014 Posted November 12, 2014 I have a sneaking suspicion that there won't be a new run. It's not much to go on, but my gut feeling is based on the fact that the LEGO SHOP SAYS IT'S A RETIRED PRODUCT. Quote

Ah I bet you are one of those who say it is not a great investment, will be restocked again and you won't make much? Quote
Bold-Arrow Posted November 14, 2014 Posted November 14, 2014 FBA crossed the $800 mark. lowest is $808 Quote
JDLego324 Posted November 14, 2014 Posted November 14, 2014 Could someone please explain the difference between FBA and the other (cheaper) Amazon listings for 10221? Thank you. Quote
Bold-Arrow Posted November 14, 2014 Posted November 14, 2014 FBA is fulfillment by Amazon. Sellers send their stuff to Amazon who in turn sells them on their behalf. Non-fba is basically like eBay . Quote
jerryherb Posted November 14, 2014 Posted November 14, 2014 (edited) FBA is fulfillment by Amazon. Sellers send their stuff to Amazon who in turn sells them on their behalf. Non-fba is basically like eBay . Amazon does not sell anything on your behalf, they just deal with logistics (ie, shipping/returns/holding). you still dictate the price/stock available for sale.

mudcatsfan Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 I'm not seeing anyone post their SSD Date stamps (just the one recently in this thread) from these weeks of finds. Please do list them so we can determine if (gasp) any of these are new runs, or just warehouse stock. I'm sure its the latter, but it would really shake things up if it wasn't. Quote
mscheaf Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 I don't remember the exact stamp on mine but it was R3 Quote

FISHERDUYU Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 they were all 19R4 as far as I heard. But i guess mschief was extra-lucky If I remember correctly, Amazon's SSDs (999+) were gone in one day, long before the hoarding starts. Quote
No More Monkeys Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 If I remember correctly, Amazon's SSDs (999+) were gone in one day, long before the hoarding starts. So, maybe Amazon is releasing this suddenly disappeared stash? Not sure what the purpose of it was. Maybe lego demanded Amazon to have formal availability until end of year? Quote
Bold-Arrow Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 If I remember correctly, Amazon's SSDs (999+) were gone in one day, long before the hoarding starts. the 999 was a misleading number. Stock dropped from 999 to 20 in 3 hours and like you said , that was before the hoarding started . Quote
exciter1 Posted November 30, 2014 Posted November 30, 2014 Well, it looks like the lowest FBA is now $800+. Quote
glucapg Posted November 30, 2014 Posted November 30, 2014 Is possible to know the price of the last Amazon sold like on ebay? Sent from my XT1052 using Brickpicker mobile app Quote
Val-E Posted November 30, 2014 Posted November 30, 2014 That would be super because listing prices mean nothing if no one is buying! I am sure this one Quote

Val-E Posted December 2, 2014 Posted December 2, 2014 Could someone please confirm what were the biggest discounts on this when sold outside lego shop. On Amazon price history in europe it went down to 290 euros and 310USD in 2013. Did anyone ever get a better mark down (not counting coupons, bashed boxes or any other atypical promos)? Quote
iahawks550 Posted December 2, 2014 Posted December 2, 2014 I got a majority of mine from Amazon at the $310 price. 2 Quote
Val-E Posted December 2, 2014 Posted December 2, 2014 Appreciated. so that means you have doubled your money in a year. What selling point are you looking at? Quote
Wildemar Posted December 2, 2014 Posted December 2, 2014 I know you excluded coupons but for the record one could buy them from galeria-kaufhof.de for 277.22 Quote
