Diabolos80 Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 Wear disguise ? You can get one of these for cheap: Get a Duck Dynasty costume and go in there Happy Happy Happy.....................................Jack Fantastic plans. Definitely neither of them would just be weird for all of us. Quote
kenchu2000 Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 Does that mean we will lose out all the profit by selling now? I only have a few, should I sell them all now or should I wait? Yes, I noticed that too, so I just pulled my 41999 listing out of ebay. I don't want to get into the current pricing war. I think I will hold on to all of my 41999 until the price picks up again.

Mos_Eisley Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 HA HA! That was the best meme ever! Even funnier for me cause I actually played Zero Wing back in the day. When I was making that I thought you'd get a kick out of it. Quote
legoman12323123 Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 When I was making that I thought you'd get a kick out of it. Drove around all day with my gf was able to grab 12 Crawler 41999 ... while im driving to all the lego stores was sellnig them via ebay mobile app. Made about $120-$150 on each craaler profit withf ree promos and double VIP points. All in All made about roughly $1,200-$1,500 for one days work. Rather flip for quick cash and grab a few HH and fire brigades (WHICH I KNOW WILL GO EOL AND WILL NOT BE RANDOMLY RETURNING LIKE THE 41999) than sit on these crawlers for 3-5 years ( in hopes they dont keep releasing more) Quote

I think I will hold on to all of my 41999 until the price picks up again. I just checked eBay and the prices are exactly the same. The newest ones are selling for around $380 with about $20 shipping. I sold my previous ones a few weeks ago for about $400 with free shipping. Where are you seeing that the price is dropping fast? Quote

Nice pic though! Quote
maxgc53 Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 Do you know if this store checks on previous purchase records? I would like to get one more but I already purchased one yesterday. I bought one yesterday and again one today. No problems even using my vip card. Quote

BricksR4kids Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 I think it's crazy to drive around all day waste 30 -50 bucks in gas plus food for oneself and said girlfriend .. Depending on how hungry you guys are drivin around all day..plus all the extra little items she may or may not have picked up.. To make 120-150 profit on a set that will never be made again...(regardless of what anyone thinks). Wow brilliant... Uhmmm.. Just wait 4 years from now when these sets hit 1200 each..because they will im sure myself and all the hardcore longterm wiser investors will be laughing all the way to the bank.. There's a reason someone is buying them up at 375-400 each. 2 Quote

Just waiting till December would have doubled their profit. Silly people. 1 Quote

Just waiting till December would have doubled their profit. Silly people. I knew a guy that had about 7 falcons first editions . I don't think he drove around all day with his girlfriend to get them. To make a long story short , he saw dollar signs when the set was selling for 700. Needless to say he flipped them. Told me this story as he handed me his last crawler .. I traded him 500 bucks in sets to make this my 15 crawler. Only 15 more to go. I plan on turning my crawlers into a 2017 Audi s5 1 Quote
DoNotInsertIntoMouth Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 To me it makes sense to flip the set if you arent a long term investor. If you are, isnt this the surest thing there has ever been? Quote
BricksR4kids Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 To me it makes sense to flip the set if you arent a long term investor. If you are, isnt this the surest thing there has ever been? I'm dreaming big with this set , I think it will be the holy grail for the technic line. It's a wonderful set to build and display. This set will continue to grab a new market of builders and continue to rise in price. I think it's a stupid set to flip, expensive to ship and sell for just a hundred bucks and minus gas ****** food driving around all day I'd rather flip easy stuff like battle packs and smaller sets. This set is way cooler than the taj.. Look where that set is.. And It was available for far more time than just a few months. All signs point upward with this one. Anyone who flipped this will regret it. If I can afford to buy 12 of these a day I can afford to sell other sets to keep these.. Worst case this set flatlines at 500 and I'm stuck with 30 of these high end sets to sell in my store over the course of time. Whomp whomp whoooomp... Quote

Yeah I see it as an even better B-wing situation. There are definitely questions with it - like has it gotten enough attention as an actual set instead of a flip? But still, I think its one to hold. RIght now in the current market, there are tons of questions about every set and how it will do. This one seems to have the least of them that I can see. Quote
kenchu2000 Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 I love to see this set to go beyond the $1K mark some day, but I disagree that this set looks way cooler than Taj, no way! I will trade my two brand new 41999 for a brand new Taj any day! Any taker? Quote
