How can someone go to all that trouble and still not know/understand what they have?

[Phil B]

LEPIN maybe ...

If that wasn't 2 hours away from me, I'd at least check it out.

Everything in LA is 2 hours away. Drive at night

Hopefully it's legit and one of you can make a pretty penny of it

Then it's 4 hours away, because I'm 2 hours south. Lol

How difficult would it be to bricklink the rest?  Aren't some of the pieces pretty rare. 

[Alpinemaps]

Dang.  I didn't get the chance to grab the photos before they took down the ad.  I didn't see what was missing, so no idea if any of the rare parts were missing.

At $400 tho, even if it was missing all the rare parts, you're still going to be able to BL those and sell it for a nice profit.

I picked it up, along with a bunch of mixed lego and minifigs + manuals. Per the sellers inventory list there are about 900pc missing and a lot of the rare pieces are not accounted for. Not sure when ill get around to bricklinking the remaining pieces. Mixed lego lot had manuals, no exclusives but decided to purchase it for an extra $300.

Oh man, you beat me on that. I was trying to convince my wife to let me go get that, but it's gone before I'm success. For real, this seems a good purchase!

[ugen]

I was debating the purchase after looking that the missing parts list but decided i need the mf in my collection and though itll be a lot of work and a think a lot more $$ it will be worth it in the end.

[Alpinemaps]

Awesome that you picked it up. Keep this thread up to date with your progress.

I always wonder what happens to unique sets after someone grabs them. Good luck with it.

Will update thread in future
