Sandwraith Posted June 8, 2017 Posted June 8, 2017 %30 off "select" sets starting tomorrow. Might be good to combo the email coupon code with if there's anything good on sale since the code expires the 11th. The 2 they have on the flyer wouldn't make me bite though (a Nexo and Ninjago set are shown). Quote
Codes Posted June 11, 2017 Posted June 11, 2017 For those interested, it seems like TRU is giving out the LEGO Batman Movie Batman Battlepod polybag with a $40 LEGO Batman Movie purchase. Quote

ChristopherJB Posted June 16, 2017 Posted June 16, 2017 Anyone the past week here had a chance to clean out some Lego Apollo Saturn from TRU? I haven't heard anything here so far from regular posters. Quite a few people from Niagara Falls have been dumping these on ebay for around 200USD a pop plus shipping. http://www.toysrus.ca/product/index.jsp?productId=129615126&prodFindSrc=search&fv=2510384&f=Taxonomy&fd=&fg=&keywords=lego+saturn&x=0&y=0&foreSeeBrowseSampling=15&foreSeeBrowseLoyalty=1&foreSeeEnabled=true Quote

Selling it at $220US earns me $55 Canadian profit which is nothing to sneeze at and prices may creep up in the next two weeks without new stock until the second week of July. Quote
Sandwraith Posted June 16, 2017 Posted June 16, 2017 Flipped 1 for $250 (cad), but that's it, i have one other to keep for myself or flip later if stock doesn't come back in full force soon enough. Quote

Do we know that as a fact, that the second batch won't come before the second week of July? I would kind of need one for a birthday gift in July... and I didn't expect to have to deal with evil resellers. Quote

I would kind of need one for a birthday gift in July... and I didn't expect to have to deal with evil resellers. Multiple Lego stores indicated to me (Canada and US) that their last shipment came this week and the next one will not come before the second week of July. I believe that someone posted similar information in the Apollo thread as well. Quote
Thumper Posted June 16, 2017 Posted June 16, 2017 Just too soon to QF (imo)... July 20th being the anniversary of the landing, there should be much more hype trying to acquire this set in say 2-3+ weeks, it'll likely be well between restocks enough that it will be much much harder to get than it is now (it has on the shelf availability still even though bo at tlg) also With the 50th anniversary of the Apollo landings (July 20 1969) coming in just 2 years - there will likely be significant multi-platform interest then... I believe this one is a 2-event hold not an early QF while available not for just a small roi. Quote

(kinda poor really) unless you already have several coupon cards piled up and of course they accept them on Lego over $129 Tell that to a few guys on ebay from Niagara falls. I saw one guy flipped like 50+. 2 days ago, I saw 50 sold in 24 hours. Just saying. On craigslist, I see some people selling it for $300 and in the posting said "I already sold one for $320, last one for $300." That is either a marketing gimmick or maybe it's true? I think it's worth it if you are cleaning like 20-30 in one shot from TRU. Quote

It is 149CAD which equates to around 110usd. 55CAD profit is the bare minimum profit. Most are making at least 60usd profits. Tell that to this guy from niagara falls. 70 sold for 55CAD profits. Less that a week of work for 3500. Many barely take home 3500 a month sitting in offices or working at starbucks. Quote
Guest ph4tb0i Posted June 17, 2017 Posted June 17, 2017 Don't forget that if you do this as a legitimate business exports from Canada to the united states are tax free so that's another 15 cad at least in profit per set. Quote

Ha. You got that right. And to make the trip worthwhile, you can load up some collectible he-man, G1 transformers, GI joe figures, coins, and comics, and bring them back up with tax back as a business. Go to the next collectible convention and unload those collectibles for a kings ransom. Those in vancouver all the way to white rock have a greater advantage because of all those shows in bellingham and seattle. Definitely worth the two way trip. Making a trip from TO to buffalo also works during the hockey season. Leafs fans can watch a game in buffalo at the same time. No idea why people complain about a 55CAD profit not worth it. Money is money. Quote

Money is money. well you don't pay tax on the item outside sales but you still have the input tax to inventory. & it's not so much complaining about $55cdn profit, it's that there's more money on the table waitn for you if you wait a week or so and quite likely double or triple that with no additional effort, it's unlikely the hype has peaked just yet..
