17coyote Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 New to the investing game. I know I am going to pay for it in a lot of sets. So I can get green grocer for $640 Bnib. Outer box in good shape not mint. What do you guys think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
17coyote Posted April 4, 2013 Author Share Posted April 4, 2013 Another thought was I could pickup pet shop, emporium, fire brigade, and city hall for another $50. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comicblast Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 That is a decent price. See ME. Are you building it or investing? If you are building it, I would get a used one rather than a NISB one, and save yourself nearly $200. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Mack Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 Is this the one you were talking about? LEGO Creator Green Grocer 10185 Is this to hold on to or is it to build? The box on the one above is pretty beat up. If its to invest not bad, I am sure even with a beat up box it will grow in value. The next best one on ebay looks to be like $80 more, but the box looks pretty good? Is that worth $80 and possibly a higher return in time for those looking for a better package?

TheOrcKing Posted April 4, 2013 Share Posted April 4, 2013 Welcome to the site. With the way how Green Grocer has been going, if you can get a new & still sealed Green Grocer for around $600 in a good condition box, I think you'll be in a decent position to make some money by the end of this year even. A couple have sold for $700 just recently and I already had a feeling the average worth will be between $650-$750 by years end. Maybe even a little more. Another thought was I could pickup pet shop, emporium, fire brigade, and city hall for another $50. It will be a while for any of those with the exception of Fire Brigade to retire anytime soon. Could be cheaper for you in the long run but you would have to be willing to sit on those investments for a number of years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grolim Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 I think that is a pretty good deal. I've been thinking about finding one myself for around that price to add to my portfolio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
17coyote Posted April 8, 2013 Author Share Posted April 8, 2013 Took the plunge. Excited to get it in a few days. Now the only problem is the temptation in opening and assembling it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ph4tb0i Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 I bought one for my wife and I to build for 680 about a month and a half ago. I think you definitely made a good buy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
