stephen_rockefeller Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 So I see on ebay that a few people who are obviously VIP members are selling pre orders for the cinema. Well tommorow they won't be pre orders but anyway they are selling them for 200.00 USD. My question is this, after PayPal, ebay and shipping fees how much are they really gonna make? Maybe they got some kind of deal or something but paying 149.00 plus tax isn't going to net them much I don't think. Quote

I would rather not waste my time unless there is a bigger reward. Quote

They may have had a bunch of VIP points that they used to bring the price down. All I can say is if they get $200 more power to them. Quick flip = more cash in hand. Quote
legomylego Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 They could have coupons (I have one 20 off your purchase of 100 or more at the lego store) so with that vip points and a free helicopter Quote

If they sell at 200, offer free postage, they paid 150, ebay & paypal will be 27, est shipping 20, then the profit is...... 3 WOW!!!!!!! don't spend it all at once If they also charge 20 for postage then profit rockets to 22.32 Quote
littlenicky Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 My guess is they have a lot of points and they want to turn it into cash... Quote
CNH1974 Posted February 14, 2013 Posted February 14, 2013 Yes if you have points you just add that to the total above. But you do have to find someone who is willing to paid 30% above retail. Quote
