qcb13 Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Thank you for the support! I don't plan on returning them. But trading to unload some to get others, sounds like a great idea if anyone is interested... LegoEdison... they would stay with me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alucard1982 Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 That's why I'm here, to ask for advice. I'm new and trying to learn!! I'll keep them, didn't really think of returns hurting resellers but I def don't want to do that!!! I entered the game in a similar fashion, but I was QFing Haunted Houses (picking them up for $110AUD & selling for retail towards the end of their life). I think what has irked most members here is the sense of entitlement that some of the new comers seem to have. When I first joined, I spent hours, if not days reading through the forums before my first post. Other members, myself included will go leaps and bounds to help those who have done their research first. One thing I did learn is that Europe/US are completely different markets. I made many mistakes reading heavily into the US market and not my own. On a final JW related note, even the TREX is an abomination over here, I can't clear them out at retail, and they haven't been in stores since late Nov.

fourkidsbuilding Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 (edited) My nearest target restocked a lot of lego today. They had the entire JW theme well stocked including IR. I'm in CA. IR was tempting, but I decided to hold off. Hoping some of this lasts until summer clearance time.

dinner41 Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 Are there any news of new sets in this line? Seems kind of silly not to play towards the dino kids corner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Average Guy Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 Although returning Lego kits is not a good idea as a reseller, it doesn't hurt the retailers as much as abusing promotions and coupons. The difference on this forum is that there is no profit to be made in returning items so some people here feel like it is a chance to scold someone for "making their job more difficult". I personally do not return kits out of embarrassment and a sense of failure. I'd rather eat the loss. It does look bad and give resellers a bad image to return hoards of stock. My very first purchase 16 years ago, I returned 2 shopping carts full of Lego at 30-50% off. I had shame in my eyes but relief in my heart because I got rid of the stuff. I haven't done anything like that ever again and I don't want to. It is easy to lose money in this game so I would advise careful research before you buy large amounts.

Average Guy Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 The Chinese have started "cloning" the dinosaurs for the Jurassic World theme. This can't be good for the future value of this theme line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

emazers Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 About 6 weeks ago I said the JW sets were in the 2016 Wholesale Form, now since the Raptor Escape is a Lego and Walmart Exclusive, that set would not be on the list, and it just shows the sets listed, it does not say All Year, Spring Only, which means Lego is not sure how long into 2016 they will be around for.

Val-E Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 That´s what I think. Retirement of the line in March or early summer, at the latest. Otherwise it would be in the 1H customer catalogue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't mind seeing that though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, definitely nothing leaked or rumored that indicates this is getting another wave. Also, gotta go with Emazers here - even if they pump out a boatload of stock in Q1 and it is orderable wholesale, that stock likely won't make it all the way to next November. I was overjoyed to move 16 IRs and just under double digits of RR and RE in Nov-Dec (Canadian market, obviously), and wouldn't mind doing it again. I still think I can hold off on an IR reload for a 20% off sale, hopefully. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Achilles Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 The "deal" talk on the main thread got me curious about this, most of these sets have 200-300 resellers on Amazon NOW. Even the big ones are 150+. Isn't this concerning/slowing you guys at all on this theme? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
