Sprocket77 Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 What do people see this reaching price wise? How important is the short production run, when at the end of the day it is still a city set, rather than a licensed set which will appeal to more collectors? Quote
Val-E Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 Rare trumps Licensed Set.Maybe tops 150 euros once there are really only a handful left. 1 Quote
Ciglione Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 Rare trumps Licensed Set.Maybe tops 150 euros once there are really only a handful left.I agree. Just are we going to wait for it hitting 150 euro? Now it sell for between 90 and 100 euro. Quote
Val-E Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 For it to reach 150, there has to be a substantial thinning out of stock.As we have seen with TH and LM, supposedly rare sets have still been obtained in multiple lots by a number of investors some of whom have the lack of astuteness to advertise that they have several units.Until these ones are off the market, 90 euros is the market price.

Val-E Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 With GBP to EURO conversion that´s where it´s at but I meant purely EURO sales. 3xMSRP in other words. Quote

We are now edging towards 150 euros as a selling price on Ebay. No more than a dozen sellers on Ebay or Bricklink.It seems the short shelf life has helped it reach a level of appreciation that a normal City set would take 4-5 years to attain, if ever. Quote

Maybe it's because they're closer to the Arctic than some of us, but they must have had some supply of this set in Latvia, all the recent Ebay sales are from there. Quote
Val-E Posted March 17, 2018 Posted March 17, 2018 Apparently there will be a transport plane in the new Arctic range (60196) and it will be a store exclusive similar to the last one. Time to sell if you haven´t already. Quote

Val-E Posted March 17, 2018 Posted March 17, 2018 Customers will definitely see the value in paying more for a smaller orange plane. Quote

Val-E Posted March 17, 2018 Posted March 17, 2018 There was a time when all retired Lego sets were $500 sets. Now it just applies to 10179. Quote
exciter1 Posted March 17, 2018 Posted March 17, 2018 Just now, Val-E said: That´s 60193. Kockshop mentions 60196 so either they are wrong or we get 2 air vehicles - that would never happen in a City subtheme, would it? Another possibility is it is a train station to go with the new trains, but we would have got pics by now. I reckon it´s a store exclusive for Arctic. TIme to sell I tells you. Already did, but I have one more, like every other set in tarnation. Quote

Phil B Posted March 18, 2018 Posted March 18, 2018 For those who are not fluent in Magyarul, "kocka" means "brick". Of course "shop" is not Hungarian, it should be kockaaruhaz.hu ...... (Or kockabolt.hu) Quote

Val-E Posted April 20, 2018 Posted April 20, 2018 1) Jet engines instead of props. 2) Blue City band on box goes across rather than vertical. That´s as far as I can get. Quote
