tasiatunes Posted December 12, 2018 Posted December 12, 2018 I have the opportunity to purchase the sets listed for $6000.00.All the sets are new in box never opened. Anyone in the forum thimk this a good deal, idea.Thanks Quote
brickvoyeur Posted December 12, 2018 Posted December 12, 2018 (edited) No, not enough meat on the bone. Too many turds in the lot, and a lot of money tied up in sets that are still in production and likely to be discounted in the future. Lowball them if you are interested still, but don't touch the asking price. This reads of someone realizing LEGO isn't as valuable as gold and trying to bail out after they realized it wasn't easy to unload this stuff. Edited December 12, 2018 by brickvoyeur Quote
iahawks550 Posted December 12, 2018 Posted December 12, 2018 Use the Lego Lot calculator. That will help answer your question. Eyeballing it, it's too much. Quote
Guest TabbyBoy Posted December 12, 2018 Posted December 12, 2018 If you can't cherry-pick, walk away. Quote
tasiatunes Posted December 12, 2018 Author Posted December 12, 2018 Thanks for the reply.I cannot cherry pick.I have to buy the whole lot.Resale is not worth it then.Thanks. Quote
tasiatunes Posted December 12, 2018 Author Posted December 12, 2018 I was going to hold onto them for a few years 3 Quote
iahawks550 Posted December 12, 2018 Posted December 12, 2018 What did the lot calculator produce? Quote
The Builder Posted December 12, 2018 Posted December 12, 2018 I agree with my fellow LEGO investors in that it doesn't look that good. I would pass, unless you could negotiate it down to a very cheap price. But even then, I wouldn't. Sorry. Quote
thebrickdad Posted December 12, 2018 Posted December 12, 2018 That list reads like a load of sets many here wish they had never bought ? 1 5 Quote

Literally took 90 seconds to punch these in and get $7000 as the lot price. * there was no price for the Simpsons and Disney minifig case. 1 Quote
marcandre Posted December 12, 2018 Posted December 12, 2018 All the recent lots I have seen have multiple pet shops & palace cinemas. Hopefully that drove people away from BB and DO. 2 Quote
tasiatunes Posted December 12, 2018 Author Posted December 12, 2018 I used retail from Amazon to calculate.About $10000.Ebay range $7200. Thanks everyone for there input. Quote
siddji Posted December 12, 2018 Posted December 12, 2018 $6000 is not worth it . $4000 - $4800 yes . Considering it’s a bulk lot, there has to be some steep discounting if picking everything in one go. 1 Quote
tasiatunes Posted December 14, 2018 Author Posted December 14, 2018 The lot calculator was 7179.00 Quote
Zelgazra Posted December 14, 2018 Posted December 14, 2018 Keep in mind the price guide hasn’t seen an update since August.... many of those are going for a little more now. Still not enough meat as others said, but take lot calculator with a nice pinch of salt, it’s not very accurate especially this time of year. I’ve managed better percentages on all my recent sales than it’s projected they’re worth. Quote
tasiatunes Posted December 14, 2018 Author Posted December 14, 2018 Thanks everyone.I will offer a lower price $4500-5000.If not I will walk away. Quote

I think he'll bite your hand off and I'll be surprised if there's any other offers. I'd personally lowball at $3500 first and then see what his counter offer is. Quote
