My last two weekends have been swamped with catching up on yardwork from the early snow in October. Hope to see you soon. 1 Quote

I thought I was doomed with the early snow covering all my outdoor furniture, grill, leaves, ect... Now waiting for the real winter. On the Lego front, I can tell when a set is hot when 2 mothers want to buy my Friends Hospital on the same day when their daughters saw it over the weekend. It certainly made me check Amazon. The first mom got it for $100. 1 Quote
LegoAddict42 Posted December 9, 2019 Author Posted December 9, 2019 How have your LEGO sales been this season? Quote

Last year I was fielding calls and emails every day about my Facebook and Craiglist posts for big sets, and practically nothing this year. I have many retired sets priced at retail. The smaller sets I sell to the same grandparents and parents every year that rely on me to judge their grandkid/kid Christmas list for suitability. I am slowly gaining a local following. Amazon sales are through the roof, but I know that will only last so long. Quote
PlasticDude Posted December 22, 2019 Posted December 22, 2019 A lot of chatter about Costco sales, has anyone seen these in wisco? Have not seen anything worth bitting at around me. Quote
terrymc4677 Posted December 22, 2019 Posted December 22, 2019 A lot of chatter about Costco sales, has anyone seen these in wisco? Have not seen anything worth bitting at around me.I’ve only got 1 store in GB. All they had was the Chopper at $25 and the City Rocket at $75. I passed on both. No City People Packs, Hagrid Huts, or Voltron. Quote
LegoAddict42 Posted December 23, 2019 Author Posted December 23, 2019 Haven’t checked any yet but may swing by one tomorrow. Will report back where and what. Quote

Amazon sales are through the roof, but I know that will only last so long. Southern Illinois here. Illinois charging tax on eBay sales has destroyed my sales. I had 0 sales this year and my sets are priced evenly with all others. Paypal not returning fees has furteher potentially killed my profits. I started selling off my 300+ "collection" of new sets 2 years ago. I'm glad I did. Just down to the duds: petshops and desth stars. Quote
PlasticDude Posted December 26, 2019 Posted December 26, 2019 I Hit up Walmart’s On 76th and 108th and Greenfield... picked through. Grabbed a couple items like Harry Potter Train and police station both 50% Quote
belljohn Posted December 27, 2019 Posted December 27, 2019 Got home from a family gathering in MN last night at 6pm and Stoughton was already cleaned out except for LM2. I don’t venture far for clearance because I would rather choose winners than relying on Walmart to choose for me, but I was looking forward to a few things. Oh well. Quote
Sfcommando14 Posted December 31, 2019 Posted December 31, 2019 I was disappointed when I saw the suburbs picked immediately, but thanks for leaving the city alone boys. I’ve found quite a bit there the last two days. Quote
