eliminator Posted August 17, 2017 Posted August 17, 2017 Only 28 BWEs left. Let's hope they don't bring anymore of these in! Quote

I see some new arrivals on the site, including Technic sets, so they may be getting ready to move the older sets out... here's hoping... Notably, the largest new set 6x6 all terrain town truck at $259.99 vs retail of $369.99.... Discounts on new Technic sets are in the 25-30% off range... Edited August 18, 2017 by Shneebs 1 Quote

kd123 Posted August 18, 2017 Posted August 18, 2017 I'm hoping they also list the extreme adventure set as that is the only one I'd want. 2 Quote

emonster Posted August 19, 2017 Posted August 19, 2017 Anyone know how many 6 x 6's they had? Seems cleared as of now. Also, still have 28 bwe's... A slow agonizing death. Don't see Costco getting any more of those! Not really interested in the 6x6...mostly curious Quote

If you have stock, you just need to be patient. List it anything above $249USD and wait. You will get at least one sold a month. Even target is selling it for 279USD and got one sold. http://www.ebay.com/itm/LEGO-174-Technic-Bucket-Wheel-Excavator-42055-/282300909047?epid=2164324309&hash=item41ba7205f7:g:o78AAOSw44BYXSrx 269USD will get it sold too.http://offer.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewBidsLogin&item=292010332417&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2564 Quote

Yes, but there's not a lot of meat on the bone at the sold prices of $260-280US shipped. It's a big expensive box to ship, unless you get a West Coast buyer. Quote

Those were my thoughts too, $280 + shipping would be alright I guess, that's retail, but I don't think anyone is going to buy from me at that price while $229 copies are widely available still. And Chris, you realize those listings don't actually tell us anything concrete right? Those individuals have their items listed at those prices right now. Doesn't reflect in the slightest whether their X copies Sold were sold at that same price.... likely it was lower and they've crept the price up, like most of us do with multiple copies...

It's a big expensive box to ship, unless you get a West Coast buyer. there's enough meat on the bone if you live in one of the following places: Niagara Falls, Vermont border with Quebec, Sweet Grass (Montana/Alberta border), South Vancouver (to Blaine or Point Roberts), Abbotsford/Sumas Border Crossing. Assuming you got these from TRU a few weeks ago at $170ish after taxes in CAD, you dump them at $200USD and you'll rack up a 25% gain easily. Even on a day where you have a horseshoe up your behind, you wouldn't be able to gain 25% in the stock markets. Edited August 27, 2017 by ChristopherJB Quote
jimmajenga Posted August 28, 2017 Posted August 28, 2017 I agree. That $229.99 price point is killing the opportunity to make much of a profit off of it (for those who got it half off). I'd never consider getting it at this price point. Quote
emonster Posted September 2, 2017 Posted September 2, 2017 (edited) Tie striker at 52.99. They have 15. https://www.costco.ca/Lego-Star-Wars-TIE-Striker.product.100327063.html Batwing also dropped a bit to 86.99 https://www.costco.ca/Lego-Batman-–-The-Batwing.product.100351357.html Edited September 2, 2017 by emonster Added link 1 Quote
ChristopherJB Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 Has anyone jumped on the 6x6? Been on sale for awhile. Also matched prices on amazon.ca https://www.costco.ca/LEGO-Technic-6x6-All-Terrain-Tow-Truck.product.100351820.html With rebates and amazon visa, you could squeeze about another 5% off on this.

kd123 Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 (edited) I may get one or two for personal use but am in no hurry as it's listed at Costco.ca and similar to the BWE will likely be listed below retail price for some time canibalizing all other retailers and resellers until retirement. I know you get more of than normal power functions with this RC set which helps explain the price difference but for me the IR is useless as are the m motors. As a technic builder I look at this set and only like some of the new red pieces, the red #3 connector, the new blue panels and the black panels. The big wheels are nice too for those who didn't get their fair share with the Claas. Everything else is common and the a/b models are below average as well. Definitely not something I would want to display. My $0.02. Edited October 5, 2017 by kd123 Quote
Shneebs Posted October 8, 2017 Posted October 8, 2017 Just saw this on Costco.ca: $25 off purchases of $100 or more when you use Masterpass... too bad Ninjago Destiny’s Bounty is now sold out... good deal for anything just above the $100 mark... https://m.costco.ca/masterpass.html 1 Quote
