Zelgazra Posted August 2, 2017 Posted August 2, 2017 Shipping probably isnt too too bad from Quebec to Ontario. I shipped one from Vancouver to PEI in 2015, and shipping was "only" $40... so just one province, maybe not nearly as bad. Might be worth running the shipping calculator on it? Quote
WCH Posted August 3, 2017 Posted August 3, 2017 Probably not worth it for this set but if it was a larger set. Quote

Sandwraith Posted August 4, 2017 Posted August 4, 2017 (edited) Minecraft Nether Fortress 21122 is %50 off online, not that i think this will be a good set to invest in, but if i didn't already have one in my minecraft display i'd be all over it. https://www.walmart.ca/en/ip/lego-minecraft-creative-adventure-the-nether-fortress-21122/6000192885418 Edited August 4, 2017 by Sandwraith Quote

I'm always on the look out for Lego to donate to the local childrens hospital and would definitely buy some of these at $5 but can't find them. Are they in store? 3 Quote

Are they in store? in store, Ottawa south, in with the sports gear. they have multiple stickers on them (messing up the box) showing various price stickers from $12 - $10 but scan through at $5 if you take them to one of the price checkers (never bothered to take any to the checkout, not good for parts). they've been there a long time. There are other better sets mixed up in the junk section too but they scan at rrp Quote

Kudos for donating Lego to local hospitals. We started donating toys after experiencing first hand how such donations can brighten up the spirit of a child that has to spend an extended period of time in the hospital. Very nice! Quote

But how do you organize these donations? Do you just show up at the hospital with a bunch of Lego and ask them to distribute? There are always small sets that I couldn't get in a reasonable quantity to part out (1-4) and I would love to donate them. Friends and family are already flooded with Lego... Quote
kd123 Posted August 4, 2017 Posted August 4, 2017 The hospital we donate to is Markham Stouville Hospital.

CupIsHalfEmpty Posted August 4, 2017 Posted August 4, 2017 I co-ordinate the donation on behalf of my LUG (MBLUG.org), and I draw from friends and family as well. I've been doing it for 6 years now and have a contact at children's hospital of Manitoba who let's me know what themes, gender and size of sets they are most in need of. I then drop off a couple hundred sets in the fall. Just google your local childrens hospital and they will have a donations coordinator you can work with. Sets that retail at $13 are the most popular as the kids build them on the trays in their hopsital beds, then take them home. I try my best to pick them up at 50% off throughout the year. 2 Quote
PerfectDecoy Posted August 16, 2017 Posted August 16, 2017 Picked up 2 Encouter on Jakku for 37 each today. Not sure if ill ever be able to resell for profit but worst comes to worst me and the kids can build at least one Quote

I was selling them on kijiji for $40... but they were selling really well at that price. Definitely a hot price... so you might be able to get a little more for them... but probably not much. They probably wouldn't sell for $50 or up. Quote
kouks Posted August 18, 2017 Posted August 18, 2017 I see the Grand Emporium all of sudden on the Wal-Mart site (sold out of course). Just wondering if they actually had some and did anyone get one? Quote

I was on their site last night and didn't notice it, so there's a chance a box of them were found in the warehouse and loaded up onto the site. Probably 1-2 sets max. Somebody out there got lucky!

Thumper Posted August 18, 2017 Posted August 18, 2017 (edited) that happens allot, I think their web-persons just recycle old pages when they make changes or drag along artifacts from their sandbox env or something - the Benny's s.S.SPACESHIP kept reappearing for months over a year after it was dead same with the tumbler.

Thanks for the point out! It's always fun to see what random retired sets make it back onto the site. Quote
