Putting your buy-ins would be helpful so as to know whether flipping is an option. As most of these sets are either just retired or still being made, unless you have a really good buy-in you´ll be stuck with them for at least a year. Edited December 27, 2017 by Val-E 1 Quote

It's mostly the freebies and the Friends sets that I'm unsure about what to do with. The two Star Wars sets I'm happy to keep so not bothered if they do well or not, same for Ecto-1. 1 Quote

0 richiej1979 Posted December 27, 2017 Author Posted December 27, 2017 Thanks so much, out of interest, what makes you think that the hospital won't do well but the riding club will? Also do you think there's too many yellow subs then? Quote

Also do you think there's too many yellow subs then? I didn´t say they would do well or not. Riding club will retire next Xmas for sure but the hospital could well have a 2 year life cycle typical of larger Friends sets so it will be a longer hold. Both are winners with those buy-ins. There are indeed too many YSBs. 1 Quote
