mahler24 Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 They have this set for 50 percent off......should i grab acouple? what does everyone think about this set? good afterlife? Quote
mahler24 Posted February 6, 2013 Author Posted February 6, 2013 Found a whole bunch of these today in munich toys r us for 19 euros!!! Thats about 65 percent off!!Should i clean them out?? there were about 20 or 25 sets in mint condition there.....and i only bought 5.? What does everyone think about this set?? Quote
terrymc4677 Posted February 6, 2013 Posted February 6, 2013 I don't care what the set is. If I find anything at 65% off I am cleaning them out. Worse case scenario you can part it out if the set doesn't do well, but at that much of a discount I don't see how you won't make a profit on these later on. Quote
mahler24 Posted February 6, 2013 Author Posted February 6, 2013 Okay! Ill go back and clean them out!! Quote
terrymc4677 Posted February 6, 2013 Posted February 6, 2013 guide on brickpicker has them at $51/each, and looking at sold listings on ebay they are currently going for $35-$60/each mint in box. that is a good score you happened upon. congrats! i wish i lived near you. i would go in halfsies with you...lol. good luck!

littlenicky Posted February 6, 2013 Posted February 6, 2013 Always buy now, think later. Remember, you can always return the items if you realize that it doesn't make money or you don't want to hold. Quote
mahler24 Posted February 7, 2013 Author Posted February 7, 2013 Soooo.......went back there today to get them all!! they had about 15 mint left so i took all of them..........got to the counter and suddenly they were no longer 19 but 29 bucks a pop!!! I couldnt believe it! yesterday i bought for 19 and today they were 29 again.....anyway i couldnt but them at 29 even though its still 50 percent off, not after 19.........boo hooo.........moral......listen to your gut feeling and dont wait....

Snowcrash Posted February 7, 2013 Posted February 7, 2013 Mahler, any chance they'd match price since you were just there if you show them the receipt? The odds are slim, but they might be willing to cut a deal if you were willing to take slow moving inventory off their hands. Then again, this is TRU we're talking about... Quote
pickleboy Posted February 7, 2013 Posted February 7, 2013 TRU will price match anything in their store for 7 days. I bought a ton of TMNT stuff this past Christams. I bought like 1k worth of stuff to sell and it all went on sale like two days later. I took the receipt back and they gave me the new price. They said they will price match their own store for 1 week after purchase Quote
pickleboy Posted February 7, 2013 Posted February 7, 2013 I misunderstood...they will price match on the items you have already bought. (Best price guarantee.) but they will not do it on items that you didn;t buy Quote
Snowcrash Posted February 7, 2013 Posted February 7, 2013 If it works that way in Germany as well then you're in Mahler. Just go back with your receipt from a few days ago and they're yours. Quote
