September 2, 201312 yr Hold this till Xmas or sell?? I am not sure. The sold sets have seem to gone down in price. The average for a new set is between $350-$400.
September 2, 201312 yr Someone from France gave me a "best offer" of 100 US for my Crawler.......50% discount? da fuq lol, and I thought I trolled....Then he came back with 130. lololol

September 2, 201312 yr Hold this till Xmas or sell?? I would wait a while. If you really need the money you can flip it now but I really want to see what the price does once we know the shipments are all done.
September 3, 201312 yr Author I may regret it, but I am holding my stash of crawlers for now. As much as I want to sell them, my gut tells me that they may skyrocket by the holidays (assuming more waves of them are not released). Fingers crossed
September 3, 201312 yr I hope Lego doesn't look at Ebay. Looking at sold listings and whats up there now, over 500 have been on Ebay. Thats 2.5% of the units made, not included all the ones we have stashed.
September 3, 201312 yr Is it possible lego could release more than 20,000? There's no way anyone would know. Like, if my license number is 8767, there's no way I could check I there's another 8767 out there, right? Shady, but since its such a hot selling item they might do it?

There's a thing called the Internet that allows people to communicate globally quite quickly and easily. If duplicate license numbers are made, the people will know.
September 3, 201312 yr Not to fuel the conspiracy theories....but the catalog makes NO mention of the 20k figure! None. You would think it would be mentioned there.
September 3, 201312 yr if they make more, I wonder what they will do when stores are over-run with returns
September 3, 201312 yr Well, at least we have 3 months to see if they will have more. Worst will just return the ones to them. Wonder if I should return all 10+ of them or 1 at a time?

September 3, 201312 yr Well I will just trade my spare 41999 for a haunted house and something else if they just make a bunch more.
September 3, 201312 yr If you got 4, why not sell half your stock and then you are already even...playing with house $$ after that. If they go up, you still get to enjoy the ride, if they go down, you already broke even. Just about every place is expecting future stock except for a few people here...

This is what I have done - I got two and sold one for $200 profit. I have one left.= for the long haul.
September 3, 201312 yr Actually tip for anyone looking to flip them - Sign up for GSP! Why? I have several friends who have gotten me to list these for them. I have sold all of them for really good prices even in the flood of them to international people. Several places where the price was unreasonably higher. I have gotten 440+shipping out of 3 so far.
September 3, 201312 yr Truth. This is what I have done - I got two and sold one for $200 profit. I have one left.= for the long haul. I wish thats what I did but my nephew begged and begged and begged and begged and we agreed it is his Bday and Christmas present that he got now. Then I had to buy the red crawler so the other one wouldn't throw a fit
September 3, 201312 yr Lets all keep our heads up this week starting tomorrow Tuesday visit even better if not quicker call to see if your local/state stores have them in or expect them. report on Brickpicker so we can all follow the flow, Everyone call LEGO Shop at Home should ask them when "more are coming out?"
September 3, 201312 yr Anyone been buying at the downtown Disney store in Orlando? I'm here all week. They say they are getting a shipment of stock in on wed but not sure if they'll have any crawlers.
September 3, 201312 yr Anyone been buying at the downtown Disney store in Orlando? I'm here all week. They say they are getting a shipment of stock in on wed but not sure if they'll have any crawlers. That is where I got mine. I have 2 (1 open, 1 sealed). I would love to trade my sealed for a a few sets. But maybe I will swing by Wed. and see if they got any more. I need to get my VW poly anyway.

The only thing that scares me about GSP is if someone files a complaint. I haven't tried it, but there isn't any tracking available. Has anyone else had sucess or more importantly trouble with GSP?

Has anyone else had sucess or more importantly trouble with GSP? If you read the terms .. as long as you can provide proof it was delivered to the GSP warehouse you are covered. The GSP deals with anything that happens from their warehouse to the international buyer
