willy431 Posted November 28, 2013 Posted November 28, 2013 The crawlers I sold also went to Hong Kong, New Jersey, and California---not just England. Let's not make it sound like one person was buying at $400. Someone bid $390 before his $400 often times. I don't know where it's going, but I doubt you will see many at $300. Even, then---a 50% profit. I was hoping more weak handed people would flood the market and I'd be able to scoop these for 250-275 on eBay. So did mos. We were both wrong...hasn't happened yet. Quote
Mos_Eisley Posted November 28, 2013 Posted November 28, 2013 Of course more were sold than just to Mark, but the reason people had to pay around $400 was because Mark was buying so many at that price. Had he not been buying all those, the other buyers would not have supported those prices since there were far more available than people not named Mark wanted. 1 Quote

Anakinisvader Posted November 30, 2013 Posted November 30, 2013 Ok, ok, I know I'm a bad boy for restarting this thread after telling it to die so many times but LO AND BEHOLD they are starting to show up in LEGO B&M stores again. Just thought I burst the retirement bubble a bit. Quote
dbost01 Posted November 30, 2013 Posted November 30, 2013 Name the city, state locations for those stores instead of just saying "they just started showing up" 2 Quote
Anakinisvader Posted November 30, 2013 Posted November 30, 2013 Read my signature if you are a non-beliver. Quote
willy431 Posted November 30, 2013 Posted November 30, 2013 Reading his signature, I am guessing one of these he refers to: Quote
Anakinisvader Posted November 30, 2013 Posted November 30, 2013 Reading his signature, I am guessing one of these he refers to: Very good but I was actually referring to the : This is my picture and receipt for all you naysayers. #1 because when one gets them, they all get them. #2 because I can't do everything for you, then I'd be Obama.

willy431 Posted November 30, 2013 Posted November 30, 2013 Agreed, you are better than that. Reach for Reagan! Trust, but verify. Did you buy any? How many did you see? We want details, man! Did you add the receipt thing after? I don't know how I missed that! I had everyone's signatures disabled since day 1, and turned them on just to see what you were talking about. Saw the store and clicked it...finding no crawlers for sale, I figured out where you were in the world, and searched for the closest lego store within 50 miles. All for nothing! I guess I missed the joke! It's funny now though....possible even more funny after playing detective for 15 mins all for naught! Good fun! Quote
TheOrcKing Posted November 30, 2013 Posted November 30, 2013 Anakin, you love sticking your ass in peoples face perhaps a little too much. :lol: Quote

Actually my friend called me from the store just before they closed tonight. There were four on the shelf and MORE in the back. Looks like round 3 is a commin'. My signature has been that way for a few months. Just like poking fun at "we want proofers". Quote
toni8284 Posted November 30, 2013 Posted November 30, 2013 Bought 3 at KOP, PA. THey had around 8 of them at 10am today. Quote

M4x18 Posted November 30, 2013 Posted November 30, 2013 This thread has had more ups and downs than the Yankees - A-Roid relationship Quote
Guest TabbyBoy Posted November 30, 2013 Posted November 30, 2013 There's 4 on the shelf in Cardiff, my cousin popped in this morning and called me. I told him to buy them if he wants to make a quick quid. I'm thinking I should sell all mine now as it looks like the party is over. Do blank licence plates mean that more than 20,000 are out there?

No - there is a second license plate sticker that is applied to the blank 2x4 tile in addition to the printed x of 20,000 tile. Quote
rcdb1984 Posted November 30, 2013 Posted November 30, 2013 I thought their shipments are on monday. Why would they not put them out on BF if they had them? Quote
