Val-E Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 IMO If you want to build it, yes. If you want to resell it in Spain or the Eurozone in general - NO! If you want to resell it in another country or hold for 3 years, maybe. 1 Quote
Aseroth13 Posted February 21, 2015 Posted February 21, 2015 I cant even find a used one of these anywhere in the north east for a reasonable price so that I can add it to my built collection. Quote
hirustar Posted February 21, 2015 Posted February 21, 2015 IMO If you want to build it, yes. If you want to resell it in Spain or the Eurozone in general - NO! If you want to resell it in another country or hold for 3 years, maybe. yes for the personal build, no for reselling interests. there r many other sets with great discounts who will perform in the same way or better (IMHO) 1 Quote
supergtp1 Posted February 24, 2015 Posted February 24, 2015 Looks like the 6-7 hundo's are out the way on up to $750-790... Wheeeee!!! Chugga-chugga-choo-choo Quote
StarPod Posted February 24, 2015 Posted February 24, 2015 if i unloaded 5-10 of these, what would you recommend putting the money into Quote
boliramirez Posted February 24, 2015 Posted February 24, 2015 if i unloaded 5-10 of these, what would you recommend putting the money into No brainer, 10188 Death Stars..... 2 Quote
redghostx Posted February 24, 2015 Posted February 24, 2015 if i unloaded 5-10 of these, what would you recommend putting the money into Nothing. There is nothing currently available at MSRP or a good price that will see this type of return in the same time frame. Quote
boliramirez Posted February 24, 2015 Posted February 24, 2015 Nothing. There is nothing currently available at MSRP or a good price that will see this type of return in the same time frame. Are you sure??? How many 10188 do you own?? Quote
No More Monkeys Posted February 24, 2015 Posted February 24, 2015 Nothing. There is nothing currently available at MSRP or a good price that will see this type of return in the same time frame. Creative Towers? Though that's gonna get saturated real soon Quote
redghostx Posted February 24, 2015 Posted February 24, 2015 Rough math indicates that you could currently buy 1.5 Death Stars for every 10221 that you sell at $750 assuming that you don't pay tax (based on shipping from coast to coast). Even though the Death Star is likely to be a winner, why would you sell a sure thing so quickly after retirement unless you like the thrill of the quick flip, If you are a flipper, then items like the CT are a great alternative. 1 Quote

You are over thinking, he is just asking what set to invest if he sells some 10221, the straight answer is 10188, well at least for me.... Edited February 24, 2015 by boliramirez Quote
GhostDad Posted February 24, 2015 Posted February 24, 2015 No price is too high for an SSD. I'm snapping up all I can right now at $800, 'cause some anonymous guy on this site told me it's sure to hit $2k by this time next year. Last Fall, I was buying SSD's at $700 and passing up HH and TH at MSRP to free up funds. So far that hasn't worked out, but I'm sure it will given time. After putting all my retirement funds into Phoenix real estate in 2006 and buying shares in offshore oil drillers on margin last summer, it's a relief to have finally found a sure-fire investment in SSD's at 2 x MSRP! 5 Quote
Ed Mack Posted February 24, 2015 Posted February 24, 2015 if i unloaded 5-10 of these, what would you recommend putting the money into Duplo. 1 Quote
Sauromosis Posted February 24, 2015 Posted February 24, 2015 Disney stock and I'm being serious. Quote
Ciglione Posted February 24, 2015 Posted February 24, 2015 If you sell 10 of these at current price? Man! That is some serious cash that needs some serious thinking. I would buy a few Tumblers and invest the rest in a nice far tropic paradise holiday alone with my wife. 2 Quote
gregpj Posted February 24, 2015 Posted February 24, 2015 Duplo. The Duplo Creative Towers are BIG. I've had a few people inquire about my remaining SSDs and I'm not letting go of any more for a while. I imagine if someone had a lot of them it might be easy to let go of a few (I sold one locally for cash at 2x what I paid) but I'm constantly surprised by how few people really bought this set but now want it.

toycrazedchris Posted February 24, 2015 Posted February 24, 2015 Duplo. We are from the planet Duplo and we are here to destroy you.. Daughter's favorite line from Lego Movie.. ; ) 8 Quote
Ed Mack Posted February 24, 2015 Posted February 24, 2015 If there was one set I would hold onto at this point in time, it would be the SSD. But what do I know? 1 Quote
Ciglione Posted February 24, 2015 Posted February 24, 2015 Honestly, I would load up on some beanie babies. I heard they will keep going up in price, and they are really cute! Sent from my XT1080 using Brickpicker mobile app I know a guy who might be willing to sell them to you at 80% below RRP. So what can go wrong? Quote
