Val-E Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 The keys will be how long Apollo stay in production for and what prices it will be offered in non Lego stores. More than an Ecto life and stuff like Tesco 3 for 2 will not be helpful. A Wall-E or Birds type life with plenty of Toos periods will do just fine.

vincevaughn Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 Don't discount the actual set....it is truly one of the greats. You know those past LEGO sets that people fondly look back on and smile. This is going to be one of them. And while i dont think it will reach the moon (heh he) it will do just fine post EOL. Only thing supply and time will do is affect how long it takes to get there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only thing supply and time will do is affect how long it takes to get there The quality of a set does not always have a bearing on its post EOL price - Ekimu or Delorean are hardly prize winning designs yet they have performed well due to the right mix of supply and demand. Other sets like ToO or Unimog have more detail and better builds but they were investment failures, maybe because too many people expected too much from them vs real demand for minority theme. I´d put ToA in that category too. NASA, space, lots of white bricks and IDEAS seems to be a recipe for cross-over success and current demand shows that but if it sticks around too long and is available everywhere then expect very moderate returns.

hockeyweasel Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 17 hours ago, exciter1 said: Except for The Maze ? I thought Maze was a poor seller. Low demand didn't necessitate further supply. If true, Maze was limited by demand, and not by intention. The Excel sheet on 2016 EOL performance suggests it had a peak price a few months ago when we were cleaning B&N out of their remaining stock, so it is struggling to reach 1.5x RRP.

ISO8T0 Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 True. But 21309 is changing over to oos faster after being in stock. This could be returns or a temp lag in supply Either way the reseller market is flooded with them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the offer, but I'll just wait till it's restocked at LEGO Shop at Home so I can make use of a nice promo set or double VIP on the purchase. I'm not dying to get this set so patience gives me better rewards on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ISO8T0 Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 That's a step up from their normal 6% rrp price hike. Can't be bothered. Thats and additional $10 out of my profits and given the fact that there are still bottom feeders on fleabay selling below $180......

zskid00 Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 (edited) I saw one in store today for $129. I don't have any coupons or discounted gift cards to use so I passed. Sold my last few FBA a couple weeks ago. I'm done flipping for now and will get one for my personal collection when I can get a nice 20% discount on it. I don't have any individual shipping boxes that will fit this one. It was a real pain when I sold my first few FBM.
