lobo1969 Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 (edited) $1200 you have to pay for this lot for you only estimate $1200 in value? Whatever you decide, many hours of work there to confirm if sets are complete if you want to resell.

Guest TabbyBoy Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 The amount of work alone to sort it out will put me off. FWIW... I've only ever bought new LEGO since I read about the amount of germs on used bricks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

labfreak7 Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 It's a ton of work and time but yes the margins are much better if the buy in price is right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcandre Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 I only buy used lots like this if there is one gem in the mix. Not seeing a 10179 or similar buried in there. With all that SW you would think some UCS would be in there, too bad. If you like sorting and building or have kids that can help go for it. I wouldn't go over $300.

thoroakenfelder Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 It's always important, when asking people's opinions on whether you should buy a lot, to include the buy price. If the price is $100, then great, go for it. If it's $600+ forget it, too much time and effort. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dah_hunter Posted December 15, 2016 Author Share Posted December 15, 2016 (edited) Sry Guys. Price is $700 CAD, like i said the value is maybe around $1100 USD resale (Per the Lego lot calculator) if the sets are mostly complete.

corkyatyyz Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 I'd go no more than 10 cents on the dollar. Way too much work for the reward which is unknown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
