Guest TabbyBoy Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 I'm not going to kill the value by checking if I have 8888 or not, probably the most valuable number, especially to the Chinese. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Mack Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 I am happy to report that the second Crawler I ordered arrived today and has an absolutely perfect box.. no hole in this one. Ed said he will take the other one off my hands so he can build it. I think I will sell it to him for $1500. What do you think? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legoman666 Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 I got mine last Thursday. I put it on eBay today for $700 with a 7 day expiration so I doubt it will sell. I have high hopes for this set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not too bad a deal - although its possible this will be a good deal in another year... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glucapg Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 I got mine last Thursday. I put it on eBay today for $700 with a 7 day expiration so I doubt it will sell. I have high hopes for this set. In Italy we say "An attempt doesn't hurt you" My idea.....if someone ABSOLUTELY wants this set (to build it or to collect it) and doesn't able to get it from LEGO Shop at Home, he doesn't know how many people bought it to build it...only 3.000 bought it to sell/flip? so he has only 3.000 possibilities over 2.000.000 or 3.000.000 or 5.000.000 potential buyer...the percentage is very very very little and so any evalation about the future price is impossible...and so $700 seems to be high price but is a very low price :-) A nice Ferragosto to everyone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lateral-G Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 That store had 50 41999's listed for sale. So how the heck did he get that many? This is the sort of thing that is going to cause TLG to come down hard on resellers. But, as we all know; all it takes is one to ruin it.....

Guest TabbyBoy Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 He probably got 24 mates to order 2 each to compliment his 2. I actually got my girlfriend to order an extra 2 to be delivered to her work and I thought I was being greedy! I've sold my 2 and will build one of the others as I'm dying to see it.

Guest idunno101 Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Or maybe it was that guy that was buying most of the sets off the eBay so he could sell them all in one big lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoNotInsertIntoMouth Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 One of my friends is having me sell one for him on Ebay for $450. I am seriously considering just paying him the price less fees and shipping as an investment. At just under $400 - probably a good deal.

spener90 Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 I want to open one and use the blue panels to modify my 8070 hot rod. Somebody talk me out of it lol Don't do it... Open a regular crawler and put the hot rod on top of it instead. Get a crawling hot rod! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metsrock507 Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 i just received my last crawler in the mail from lego. the mech was shipped separate, however the box was damaged anyway! (grr) i listed it on ebay but i think i charged to much for it. what do you guys think a fair price would be for this set? http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-SEALED-READY-TO-SHIP-LEGO-41999-4X4-Limited-Edition-Technic-/380699059450?pt=Building_Toys_US&hash=item58a36ea4fa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
