Scorpio69 Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 Send one at cost to each BP-er without Elsa's Castles in his/her area Well that is a thought.... I normally would not stress but iam leaving on vacation on Friday and am not too enthusiastic tying up too much money Quote
PurpleSnurple Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 Go stand in front of a TRU or mall with one in your hands with a little sign "for sale" j/k. Hehehe... parking lot sales always feel like a shady stand off between the 2 parties LOL! But it was soooo much easier making instant profit off Craigslist meeting buyers in parking lots. Quote

I wish I could!! I did just sell one on craigslist, maybe I will tell my hubby to sell them when iam on my trip ! Quote
Dbroncoboy Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 Doesn't seem like enough people know about it to drive demand. Those that do know about it know how to find it at target. 1 Quote
xeeeej Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 Doesn't seem like enough people know about it to drive demand. Those that do know about it know how to find it at target. Any volunteers to contact the New York Times to request a story? 1 Quote
colecole Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 Doesn't seem like enough people know about it to drive demand. Those that do know about it know how to find it at target. I agree with this. If this set was out a few months ago and kids would have seen it in the stores and online, then they would be asking like crazy for it this christmas! It is so new that I think the kids don't know about it yet. It could be the toy of the year in 2015....just saying. Quote
stoltzjl77 Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 I would love to have one at a not-outrageous price to give to my daughter for her birthday on Dec. 27th - if anyone who's got one is feeling the Christmas spirit please PM me. I checked my Target on Saturday and no dice, though I didn't ask if they had any in the back room. 1 Quote

fredrick_louis Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 Man the prices on Amazon are dropping fast? I know people want to sell these but at this prices why even bother? I've not sold any since Saturday and complain to Amazon on their "Pre-order" designation on this item cause the rest of us being labled the same way. They say the are looking into it but are actually not doing anything. Are any of you selling on Amazon? 1 Quote

TheOrcKing Posted December 16, 2014 Posted December 16, 2014 Here's a review for anyone curious about the actual build. Quote
marcandre Posted December 16, 2014 Posted December 16, 2014 (edited) Saw these at two targets thim morning. I left them, think the window has closed. Both Durham targets just in case anyone local is looking. All the new friends and disney stuff was out. The guy stocking said they needed to fill the shelf space.

xeeeej Posted December 16, 2014 Posted December 16, 2014 The Amazon listing appears to have been pulled for the moment. The ebay flood is going to get even deeper. I think I'll hold off on selling any more of mine until after the official release, counting on them selling out and demand being higher then. Quote
Huskers1236 Posted December 16, 2014 Posted December 16, 2014 Looks like some showed up in Omaha(******. 132nd) for any local guys. None in Lincoln still. Quote
stoltzjl77 Posted December 17, 2014 Posted December 17, 2014 Yeah so of course right after I finalized a purchase from a generous fellow BP'er (thanks UB!), I find them on the shelves at my local Target. So now I've got to bust a hump to make up the lost ground LOL. So far I've sold 2 on Amazon, one to a guy in Japan who paid over $125 for it. After fees/shipping my take was over $80 so doubled my money. Good times. But Amazon took down the first listing I posted it to, so they are apparently trying to crack down. eBay competition is looking pretty stiff though. Quote
wholovesboo Posted December 17, 2014 Posted December 17, 2014 Saw at least 10 boxes on the shelves at Target in White Plains, NY. Along with 2015 Friends sets. And yes I did leave some on the shelf :) Quote
minicoopers11 Posted December 17, 2014 Posted December 17, 2014 (edited) Okay, which one of you is this? http://www.telegraph.co.uk/topics/christmas/11297005/In-search-of-Frozen-Lego.html Edited December 17, 2014 by minicoopers11 1 Quote

supergman Posted December 17, 2014 Posted December 17, 2014 Went to a local Target (called ahead). They had 8 Elsa sets; 20 mintues later I got there, there was one left and put it in my cart. Still in the aisle, a lady comes over telling me how her daughter needs the set, she just has to have it. I mentioned that other stores have taken stock. She literally flips out and goes insane like the world is closing around her, and starts arguing with two employees about calling ahead and being told they have some, only to find out that there is none when she arrives. People are insane. Quote
