exciter1 Posted November 1, 2014 Posted November 1, 2014 My local Mom & Pop Pharmacy is running a 20% all their toy stock this weekend. I bought these items earlier today. Tie Fighter - $43.99 Jabba's Palace - $95.99 Friends: Adventure Camper x 2 - $27.99 Friends: Cool Convertible - $11.99 I bought the Space Shuttles a few weeks ago and I didn't see the Friends: City Park Cafe earlier today either. I'm going back for the Big Blue Brick Box 6166s tomorrow, even though they are marked up to $40 and I can get them for $32 each. It looks like they're going for about a $100 on EBay, so I should be able to get $50 profit each on all 4 of these. I'm not sure about getting the Helm's Deeps, but I know this will be my last shot at getting them for $104 each? Opinions on what I should pick-up of the remaining items? Most items are MSRP and sales tax here is 7.25%. Thanks... 4 Quote
Elkkthunder Posted November 1, 2014 Posted November 1, 2014 Where is this? Buy the batwing agreed Quote
exciter1 Posted November 1, 2014 Author Posted November 1, 2014 Yes, I can get 3 x Batwings for $28 each, but they haven't appreciated much and I'm sitting on a pile of them. Quote
Migration Posted November 1, 2014 Posted November 1, 2014 (edited) Are those Skiffs still around? Cargo terminal could be good as well. And don't forget Colby City;) The log cabins may also have potential. Edited November 1, 2014 by Migration Quote

ravenb99 Posted November 1, 2014 Posted November 1, 2014 I'd get the Tie Fighter, Cabin, and all the 3000 friends (think you got all but the stables from your OP). I'd go with the Helms too, not going to get another opportunity on that one Quote

Yes, I'm trying to figure out how much to spend, after blowing out my wallet this week/month. 1 Quote

Migration Posted November 1, 2014 Posted November 1, 2014 As cool as all those old sets are, I think I would rather grab a Pet Shop or Tower Bridge. Assuming you've already got a few Helms Deeps and Jabba's Palace and Barges. Quote

Assuming you've already got a few Helms Deeps and Jabba's Palace and Barges. Yep, I do have a good amount of Jabba's Palace and Helms Deeps, so I might convert the 6166 $$$ to a Pet Shop. I'm at my limit on Tower Bridge. I have many Heartlake Stables too, so that's why I left it behind. $40 isn't a bad price on it though. Quote

There's just not enough meet on most of those bones at retail to be worth the trouble to flip other that the ones you said you already bought. 1 Quote
exciter1 Posted November 2, 2014 Author Posted November 2, 2014 Insane!!! Where is this store? Somewhere in po-dunk Ohio and they told me a BIG shipment of toys and LEGO is on the way. Unfortunately, they've marked up some of their 2014 stuff already, Quote
Crustybeaver Posted November 2, 2014 Posted November 2, 2014 Opinions on what I should pick-up of the remaining items? Every single Space Shuttle you can lay your hands on. Helms Deep, Jabbas Palace and Super Heroes Hulk should all be instant winners. 1 Quote
Flemdog33 Posted November 2, 2014 Posted November 2, 2014 If they need to move inventory I would ask a manager or owner to cut a deal if you were willing to buy a large quantity. Worse case they say no! Quote

Worse case they say no! I tried that a few months ago and they wouldn't call me back. I didn't repeatedly bug them though. Quote
trenty1990 Posted November 2, 2014 Posted November 2, 2014 U all think jabbas palace is a good bet? I'm going to have to read up on that thread tomoro I completely missed that set Quote
exciter1 Posted November 2, 2014 Author Posted November 2, 2014 U all think jabbas palace is a good bet? I'm going to have to read up on that thread tomoro I completely missed that set I think the consensus is it's a big winner down the road. Quote
BrickLegacy Posted November 2, 2014 Posted November 2, 2014 Im still sticking with my original prediction of $300 Christmas 2015. Quote
trenty1990 Posted November 2, 2014 Posted November 2, 2014 I'm going to have to pick one up on offer just incase Quote
exciter1 Posted November 2, 2014 Author Posted November 2, 2014 are they hiring pharmacists? Quite possibly... Quote
Bold-Arrow Posted November 2, 2014 Posted November 2, 2014 Quite possibly... in that case, howdy neighbor 1 Quote
ravenb99 Posted November 2, 2014 Posted November 2, 2014 in that case, howdy neighbor I could see a lot of multitasking from the pharmacy and lego aisle if that came about. Here's your prescription and a tie fighter as well... Quote
