That´s a pretty bulky turd. What are the most recent Euro seal codes? Are they still making these? Quote

I think brickset weighs US sets, and the weights can be different in Europe. European 10240 sets, for example, weigh 2.5 ounces less than US sets. My most recent European seal codes are for the 17th week of 2016. Quote

That's the weight I got for my recently arrived European Ecto-1 sets, and I was a little concerned that they came in 1.7 - 1.8 ounces under where brickset said they should be. Since this also happened with Red Five sets I bought (and have already sold with no issues), I think the European sets either do not include a catalog or brochure that is included in the US sets, or else the boxes are made of a different (possibly thinner) grade of cardboard.

This has consistently sold at RRP on Bricklink, even when it was still available everywhere and selling over RRP on Ebay. Quote
