banshee3 Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 (edited) *edit* Like a dummy I didn't put the set name in the title. Pirate Ship Ambush. I'm fairly certain that this guy is done and not coming back, however futureshop seems to have stock right now for 99.99$ (30$ off ). I'm on investment lock down for the time being so I have to pass, but I like this one, own this one, and believe it is one of the two or three LOTR sets that could make money So have-at for any of ya'll interested. FS also has a few other sets on sale, but nothing as significant as this one. Edited January 3, 2015 by banshee3 1 Quote
bricketycricket Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 For anyone considering this for investment: It has been on sale for $70-$80 multiple times, so just know what you'll be up against. 1 Quote
Guest ph4tb0i Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 Yeah, i hoarded out southern ontario when they were at 65 at target this summer. good times. lol. Quote
@rtisan Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 Solid buy in at $65, but would not buy for investment at $100 if you want to profit anytime soon. Quote
massakassa Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 These were $45 at Walmart last spring, $100 is quite steep. Quote
banshee3 Posted January 3, 2015 Author Posted January 3, 2015 point is not how much more this is versus previous sales; more so that this is likely the last you'll see of this set at less than msrp. If you're looking for it, there it is. Quote
fatboycarney Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 These were $45 at Walmart last spring, $100 is quite steep. In Canada? Quote
Veegs Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 In Canada? I don't think so - the best I heard of/saw was 50% off MSRP in Canada. This is a decent price for long term investment - obviously not great for a short term flip, but since most sets are best to sell 18-24 months post EOL that means a hold until Christmas 2016. I don't think it is crazy to see this selling for $190-200 in two years. Quote
massakassa Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 (edited) In Canada? Yup. Only one store i know had it for that price though. Up to the managers discretion i guess. Edited January 3, 2015 by massakassa 1 Quote
Sandwraith Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 Most WM's i saw in Canada had it at $80, but yes some stores do different prices and whatnot. Got quite a few during the Target clearance, but thanks for the post! Good price for anyone who needs/wants one for a personal build that missed all the clearance sales. Quote
