Val-E Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 (edited) I passed and I´m having the same doubts this year about Fairground Mixer only it is slightly more widely available and I don´t see at as much more than a big CITY set and no one buys CITY at full rrp, do they?

EEE is doing pretty decent. Are you trying to tell me to load up on mixers? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Battrax Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 About time... nice....great set and not one that will be repeated. Each time there has been a Maersk ship, it has been a different class. I should have bought 100 of them. Oh well, I have done my best ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Needless to say, they never made it to markdown near me... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also flipped one to some bloke in Australia early on that was rash in hindsight :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
binici Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Not sure if to resell or rebuild? I really like this one, but the train line looked even better... What to do, what to do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salimr Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 I love this set! My husband is from Somalia so we totally built this with a small boat behind it. I am waiting for all his friends to buy my extra ones from us just because the Captain Phillips movie. In reality that whole situation is so depressing, one has to have some humor. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm actually very proud of how most of the stickers turned out. I also replaced some containers with different colored ones to make it look a little more realistic (not really sure if it worked lol). Probably the only set that has been displayed 100% of the time I have had it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of choices on ebay. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcdfan Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 If they flipped over the image, they'd be able to see how to spell Maersk. What problem the other 5 misspelled listings have, beats me. LOL 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not gonna happen Since Maersk = stickers, a bigger EEE is just going to give you more stickers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChristopherJB Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 Feels like this set is dead in the waters. Price appreciation has been abysmal. Shouldve got more SSDs and HHs during the same period instead of this junk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame as it's a superb set let down by too many damn stickers which I think have put buyers off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
